Shetland Visit February 5th – 8th 2010

Ola and I visited Shetland over this extended weekend and shared the Lighthouses of Prayer vision
at a training day held on the Saturday. We also met with a number of people during our visit
through attending various meetings including: a men’s breakfast at Emmanuel Fellowship in Lerwick,
a large home group in Walls and an evening at Kerith with various leaders thanks to the wonderful
hospitality of Roger and Rosemary Pocock. This was a time of releasing for  Shetland as we became aware shortly after arriving there. It was obvious to us that God was busy in the hearts of many.Outreach initiatives were underway in many parts of the Islands with great enthusiasm from those involved. While our main purpose was of course the training day we were blessed to have such a wonderful opportunity to touch the church in Shetland at many levels. In reflecting on this trip I find myself realising that we received as much from this visit as I hope Ola and I were able to give. As in all things we rely on our  Heavenly Father as we work together with Him to establish His Kingdom here on earth as it is in heaven.
