Seven Ducks Down, Two to go

Hello! We are in Ithaca, New York now, our last tour stop on this trip! From here we'll be heading off for a day at Cedar Point and heading home Friday evening. I'll just update you a bit about what took place in Middelfield, our last stop.
We arrived on Sunday night and had a service with some of the people from the church. We were able to bless them with some prophetic paintings, drawings, and words, and a couple dances. Kristen gave her painting to a lady about her heart "singing with joy," and it ended up hitting her right on the spot. She was very grateful for the word. Denica then gave a drawing to that lady and her husband about the Father being their home. That was also right on because they haven't been able to settle into a permanent home yet.
Mike Southern is the pastor in training there, and he will soon take over the job of senior pastor. Laura had a word for his wife without even knowing who she was, and she told her afterwards that she knew Laura was going to have a word for her!
On Monday morning we got to be with some high school kids from Cardinal High School, which is a public school. It was their "Christian Club." We spoke some words to them afterwards and invited them to come to our evening service at the church.
When we got back to the church, the Lord had us pray and prophesy over Pastor Mike. It was amazing how the spirit was flowing, and he was extremely encouraged by what God apoke through us. There was so much confirmation and breakthrough for him--he was blown away! We can see that God is making him strong, and making him a warrior who won't back down.
As Middlefield is known for having a significant Amish community, we had lunch at the famous Mary Yoder's Amish Kitchen. It was delicious! Just to explain the title a bit, there was a gift shop at the restaurant. We have been on the lookout for a duck for each person on our team, because a duck is our "mascot." So we found several there, and we only have two more to get. :)
In the afternoon we went to Cardinal Middle School and connected with some of the kids there from the after school Christian Club. There were two guys there with hurt leg or foot. One of them prayed for the other, and his own leg started feeling better! Then the one who was prayed for felt better too! We also invited the kids here to the evening service.
We were so pleasantly surprised by how many of the highschoolers and middle schoolers came to the meeting that night, plus others from the church! There was so much hunger and life in them, and we knew God was using us to touch their hearts. Larissa and Laura did the prophetic arts and treasure hunting workshops, and the kids there just ate it up! Even one young man who is an artist himself was really inspired to start doing prophetic painting. He has felt that his art hasn't had a place, but now he knows what his place is. We did a few human videos after the workshops and then released prophetic words. We could tell everyone was very blessed and that God touched them that night. One girl that Laura connected with was thanking God because He knew that talking to Laura was what she needed that night.
There is a girl from this church that wants to do MCOKC next year, and some of the girls got to stay with her.
Well, we had a good time ministering at Covenant Love School this morning and then staining their playground, and we are going to head off to our final service tonight!
See you soon!
