Revival in Vancouver, BC, Canada

Dear pastors Rodney & Adonica, My wife and I would like to be web members of your church. We watch online every service, and we are so blessed by your ministry. We found out about you in 1995, when a Canadian pastor brought to Russia (where we used to live) a few video tapes. These tapes were a great instrument in our bible school and also seed in our hearts. Next year we moved to America and visited your meetings in Vancouver, Canada. We have never experienced so much freedom before. This freedom is the reason why we want to be on your campmeetings again and again. Thank you for your teaching, thank you for allowing the Holy Spirit to do work in people’s hearts. We can say with full confidence, that your ministry changed our lives. Thank you so much!!! Please consider us as part of The River Church.

Sunday night (last night) I worked the phone bank prayer lines, and really saw Gods hand moving through my prayers “which really encouraged me. I had thought I’m not ready, but then I heard Pastor Rodney’s voice in my ears: you will never feel ready. You just have to obey Some of the reports from those I prayed for: I’m shaking so hard I can hardly hold the phone, I’ve never shaken like this (prayer for various family / personal issues).. I feel the fire of God all over my body I’m on fire (requested prayer for fire). I feel tingling in my feet, and normally I only feel pain there (woman in nursing home with MS, unable to walk “prayer for healing). Such a blessing to know it was not about me “ I just had to be an instrument to pray most of these folks were very hungry“ and just needed someone to pray for them. One man told me: I’m on my knees, my hands are raised, I’m ready for you to pray I made special note of this hunger in his heart as I prayed After one call where the caller really got touched the Holy Spirit hit me and I was shaking and weeping all through the next call. Most of the operators were hit during this time. I was so honored to be used in this way. Several men called who were older, who had been on fire for God years ago, and wanted it renewed I did not have to pray with any of them for salvation I did check with a couple of them directly (that I could not clearly tell from their prayer request):care you born again? If you died now do you know you would go to heaven?, they all knew the Lord. Several older women called with various health & family issues. One of these ladies especially touched me. I slipped into tongues at one point while praying with her, for the Lord was showing up so strongly on her (and on me). Then she asked if she could ask for more prayer and I said definitely Then she asked to be able to speak in tongues better I speak a little in tongues, but not as good as you. (I know its not a matter of goodness, but I knew what she meant). So I prayed for even new languages“ new tongues “ and I could hear her weak voice raising up in renewed vigor as she started praying stronger and stronger in tongues At the end she said: “your prayers touched me so This experience took me personally to a new level of being prepared to “pour out” to others.
