PRESENCE WORSHIP NEWSLETTER

MAY UPDATE

In one week we start our worship residency. This will be 8-weeks of equipping worship leaders, living in community, pursuing the heart of Jesus and hungering after the presence of God. We believe these weeks will have an eternal impact on the lives of each worship leader and will have a significant impact for the Kingdom of God.

PRAYER NEEDS

Holy Spirit has fully equipped us for the ministry time we are about to dive into, but we ask for continued intercession. We have several things we need prayer for as we enter into this time of ministry over the summer. Please pray for unity in our team and that God would bond us together as we let our worship arise. We are asking the Lord to work powerfully in these leaders lives to walk in purity. Our team will be leading at many prayer rooms and meetings during the month of June and our prayer is that this time in the secret place would stir a greater passion and zeal for God. We ask for prayer against the tactics of the devil as we know he hates that these leaders are committing this time to pursue God's presence and stand firm in the victory of King Jesus. Please pray for each of these leaders by name: Maryn Robson, Jacob Meeker, Graham Whiteside, Jace Rivera, Robby Rose, Shane and Dori Dick. Throughout the summer please ask Holy Spirit to reveal even more through God's word on how you can intercede on their behalf.

This residency is going to a busy but fruitful 8weeks. We are asking everyone involved to engage mind, will and emotion and the only way we can do this is through dependance on our teacher and friend, Holy Spirit. We believe with our whole heart if we go all in this summer the reward will be immeasurably more than we could ever imagine. We need to seek the King and His Kingdom with everything we have. We cannot wait to see what God is going to do!!

We officially launched registration for our Presence Worship Camp and have been blown away by the early registrations. Presence Worship Camp will be hosted at City Life Church July 16-18 as a 3-day worship youth camp for next generation worship leaders: ages 13-18 yrs olds who have a desire and hunger to grow as worship leaders both spiritually and musically. To learn more about this camp or to sign someone up, please go to: presencewrshp.org/camp .

FINANCIAL NEEDS

We are still in need of some gift cards for our residents gift baskets before they arrive on June 5th. Please send me a text or email if you would like to help in this way. We will continue to keep you all updated monthly and throughout the summer. Thank you all for your continued partnership and support of Presence Worship.

APRIL UPDATE

First of all we want to thank you all for your support and partnership. The texts, prayers and love you have all sent our way has been amazing. God continues to do great things through Presence Worship and is using this ministry to equip worship leaders and share the gospel.

At the beginning of April we had the opportunity to Lead worship at an conference called YouthCon it was a youth conference in Glorieta, New Mexico. So not only was it beautiful being in the mountains but we saw God do an incredible work in these students lives. We saw hundreds of students respond to the gospel and make whole life commitments to missions and ministry. There was a group of Mormons that came to this conference and several of them accepted king Jesus for the very first time!! We are attaching a couple other screen shots of testimonies we have received back from students who attended this conference. We give Jesus all praise for what He did this week and we know it will have eternal impact for the kingdom of God.

FINANCIAL NEEDS

Our worship residency starts June 5 and we have 6 different worship leaders coming to be apart of our 8-week discipleship program. As we approach the summer we have some financial needs for our worship residency. We are providing food, travel and housing for these residents and we need 6 supporters to give $1,000 to help fund these leaders coming to be apart of presence. If you feel compelled to give you can go to presencewrshp.org/give or send checks to 2903 E Central Ave Wichita KS 67214. We are also in need of some funds to rent a larger van for several weeks out of the summer for travel. If you need more information on our needs please call me at 262.347.7251.

PRAYER NEEDS

Please pray for our residents as they prepare their hearts to come and be discipled this summer. We have four new residents Graham, Jace, Maryn, Jacob and two leaders Robby and Shane who we will be apart of our summer.
Please also pray for our first ever Presence Worship Camp we will be leading on July 16th-18th. This will be for youth musicians and worship leaders 14-18 years old. We will be hosting this camp at City Life Church. We are gonna be releasing more info on this the beginning of May.

Please continue to pray for the property God has placed on our hearts, we will give more details very soon, but God has been opening some really cool doors. We need are asking Holy Spirit to give us a spirit of wisdom and discernment.

The worship community God is growing in Wichita is unlike anything we have ever experience. Thanks again for all your support and prayers. We are praying and expecting abundantly more in the days to come.
