Church In The Woods - Raleigh, NC

(Above) A few dozen Christians gather in a North Carolina park for worship, ministry and fellowship with Raleigh’s homeless.
Alice McGee, the subject of media attention last year for challenging the destruction of a homeless camp by local police, worships and fellowships with the homeless people God has placed on her heart. Her friends from Father’s House, a network of Raleigh-area house churches, and others help with outreaches. Some of the homeless are Christians, some are yet to be Christians.

As Alice preaches, the joy of the Lord is all over her."I didn’t know there was such joy in putting everyone ahead of yourself.” Alice, who is a professional interior decorator, did not always aspire to ministry to the homeless. “A baptism of love came upon me and I have so much love I can't stay out of the woods. There is nothing more fun for me than walking around the corner of a trail and finding an unreached people group. We have a steady stream of people coming out of the woods, getting off alcohol and drugs. Still other homeless are veterans suffering from military stress."
Alice says power evangelism is a solution to many of the problems she finds. “People say, ‘These are homeless. They’ve been through so much. Go easy on them.’ I do the very opposite. I kind of just dump everything I’ve got on them quick because they don’t need a 10-year plan to end their personal homelessness. Their personal journey can just be a moment when stepping from darkness into light.”
“We do six discipling services a week. We don’t just love them and leave them.”

Rolland & Heidi Baker - Iris Ministries Mozambique, Africa
One of the most productive revivals of modern times continues across one of the poorest nations of the world. Darkness is being expelled as the powerful work of the Holy Spirit is bringing forth light.

Miracles of healing and food provision, even the dead have raised at the prayers of some of the native pastors and leaders. Multitudes have turned to Jesus and thousands of orphans and needy have been rescued.

The fruit of revival is abundant. Thousands of churches led by thousands of trained pastors with hundreds of thousands of worshipers are now bringing the light of the love of God where there was thick darkness.
