2 Incredible Trips!

Sorry that I haven't posted in awhile, but I've been busy traveling 2 out of the last 3 weekends...and on top of that, we have now completed the first month of our new church plant in North Hollywood called "Community of Hope"!! I am just amazed at God's goodness - that He has blessed us with the privilege of sharing the good news of Jesus Christ around this country.

The Tampa Pro bodybuilding show was tremendous as it always is! I'm telling you, God has begun a revival among the local athletes in Tampa!! It has been one of the greatest blessings getting to know the believers there over the past year, seeing them step up in their faith and begin to minister to other athletes. In fact, some of them are actually coming to the Mr. Olympia in Vegas, not to compete, but to minister for Jesus! How cool!

This past weekend, Fred Krause and I ministered at the USA's (a top level amateur show). Once again, God moved in power - so much so that a woman even gave her life to Jesus! The prayer service we had the opening night was powerful as a number of athletes gathered just to hear the Word of God and pray for this industry. I could have never imagined back in 2002 when Andy Steiner and I started this ministry to the bodybuilding industry that God would be doing these amazing things in 2010!!

And last but certainly not least, the church plant is really taking root in this community. Each week, either Scott (the other pastor) or myself have been casting the vision that God has given us for this weekly gathering of believers to worship God. People have expressed alot of excitement as to what God wants to do through us in the North Hollywood/Studio City area. If you live in this area, please come join us every Wednesday evening at 7:30pm. The address is 11020 Magnolia Blvd., North Hollywood, CA 91601.

Thanks for your prayers and support!
