For the first time ever, I will be leaving on a road-trip to go out with encouragement for the Churches & Ministry Outreach Centers. The Holy Spirit moved in me about two weeks ago, and to be quite honest, I really didn't understand how, or why, or even where we would be going! I mentioned this to a few people, who reacted very much like I did. Since then, I have received the call from four different Churches, asking us to come to help with the outreaches in their areas. These Churches do not have much funding, but are willing to take an offering to help pay for the gas. Today (Thursday), I began to have doubts. I asked God to show me clearly if it is His will for us to go. Suddenly, I became very hungry. I stopped to get a bite to eat at a Zips Hamburger Restaurant. I went through the drive through. When I arrived at the window to pay for my meal, the lady handed me a receipt that had a big zero written over it. I asked what it meant, smiling she informed me that someone had paid the bill for me. I asked who it was, and she pointed to a man who was smiling and waving at me. I have no idea who he is, but God spoke very directly into my heart that I am not to worry about how, or where, or why! I am just to go, trusting in Him to direct our path! Please pray for us as we (Chuck Gilstrap, Possibly Jack Post, and myself) will be leaving on March 2, 2008.

Hello everyone!
I have been offline for quite some time now, and there is much to share! God is moving in a mighty way in West Central, Spokane, Washington! The Lord's Ranch has opened up a transitional house for some of their graduates, Truth Ministries will be opening another one in West Central also! Fred and Julia have opened their house for outreach (And, they are doing wonderfully!), James & Nancy will be doing outreach from their house, and Joshua and Sarah will be back soon doing outreach! What could be better? People's lives are changing in West Central, Women's groups are forming, Ministires are coming together like never before. . . Relationships are healing! I am excited beyond belief! God, not people are doing this!
Off-Broadway Family Outreach is letting go of the Lighthouse as we originally saw it. Instead, we are participating in the building of a LIGHTHOUSE network of HOPE in West Central, Spokane, WA, by linking together with the other parts of the Body of Jesus Christ, with each of us individually doing our respective parts from the WHOLE of what God is doing in our midst! Please pray for us, and ask the Holy Spirit of our God to release the anointing of LOVE that will enable the success of our mission! And, watch the updates for the continuing news of TRANSFORMATION in our City!!!
Love and Prayers,

Who are the They?
Isaiah 58: 6-12
6 "Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke? 7 Is it not to share your food with the hungry and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter— when you see the naked, to clothe him, and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood? 8 Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your righteousness [a] will go before you, and the glory of the LORD will be your rear guard. 9 Then you will call, and the LORD will answer; you will cry for help, and he will say: Here am I. "If you do away with the yoke of oppression, the pointing finger and malicious talk, 10 and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday. 11 The LORD will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail. 12 They will rebuild the ancient ruins and will raise up the age-old foundations; you will be called Repairer of Broken Walls, Restorer of Streets with Dwellings.
Who is the THEY?
Consider what Your/Our part is... Then consider who the They are. Next, consider what this means . . .
Think about it!
