September 2011




I love the Question of Sport round 'What happens next'.

A cricketer swings his bat at a wayward ball and the picture is frozen - teams then compete to remember or imagine a likely scenario.






This year 2011 has been historic for all of us in the Newfrontiers family, with a 'what happens next' over our key events. Together on a Mission in Brighton was no nostalgic looking back back the family album, but our father in God releasing apostolic sons to explore new horizons.

Westpoint for me signified a mighty roar of support in our field of apostolic ministry as we released a hugh financial sum to plant churches, raise leaders and travel to the next town, village or city.

What happens next? The best is yet to come. Hundreds if not thousands of leaders trained. Large Antioch churches throughout the UK but also in cities like Madrid and Porto - 100's of churches planted and adopted, teaching the poor and needy.

I have a dream - join me in this mighty


 'What happens next moment' !

Come and join us at Westpoint!! 18th - 21st August 2011

In conversation the word 'camping' is guaranteed to evoke stories of high emotion.

Trapeze like balancing acts in the showers,
farmyard toilet stalls, giant insects, dreadful
weather and sleepless nights in freezing
temperatures
                                                             











There is a Jewish festival they call Sukkot which is enacted every Autumn. Its main feature involves leaving homes to live in huts with branches for roofs - a reminder to every Jew of their history of desert wanderings for 40 years. Another name for this festival is 'The Time of our Joy'


For me camping is a symbol of our faith - our lives fragile, vulnerable, open to elements. Yet around us are the wings of God's eternal love.

At Westpoint the church community is stripped bare of any wordly pretence - in a field and cow shed but lifting up God's name and seeking his glory. The time of our joy is before us




Lets us embrace it with open arms



Westpoint is Newfrontiers South and West Regional celebration weekend held at the Westpoint showground in Exeter, Devon
