to totally transform inner city communities

through the love of Jesus Christ.

There have been so many miracles this month that to limit it to just one would be impossible.  So we thought we could give you a miracle summary and let God be glorified by all He has done.

1^st The Leadership Team went on their first outreach to Portsmouth where they blessed the people by performing their dance, handing out hamburgers and hotdogs, and distributing tracks.  We wish you could have seen their joy in giving out the food to others.  With this being their first outreach, we had talked to them about going to show the love of Jesus and not to receive blessings.  However, as project kids, we didn’t know how they would do giving so much away.  But to our amazement, the love of God touched the kids to the point where we couldn’t get them to stop serving.  Then, at the end, they refused to leave until all of their tracks were given away.  The outreach had such an impact on the Leadership Team and completely changed their perspective on giving to the point where Chrissy said, “I learned it is far better to give out hamburgers than to eat them.”  And Lateisha said, “I want to do outreach everyday of my life, and I want to go to other places to tell them about Jesus.”

2^nd United In Him received a couch for the prayer room, a TV/VCR combo to use during Bible study for the very small children who attend.  We also received Bible videos, notebooks, and even a digital camera. 

3^rd Three girls, Miangel, Alisha, and Alexis, accepted Jesus at prayer on Monday night and have been attending church, Bible study, and prayer.

4^th United In Him didn’t receive a van.  We know this doesn’t sound like a miracle, but keep reading for God’s timing is so perfect and His direction so clear -- As you know, we really need a van to help transport the children to church on Sunday.  We went to look at one that had many miles on it, but looked in prime condition.  Before we went, we prayed, “Lord you know that we don’t know anything about cars, so if this isn’t your perfect provision for us, we ask you that even as we are driving it that it will break down or we would have the discernment to know that something is wrong with it.”  Our God is so awesome!  The van that had just been driven last night wouldn’t even start.  The man even tried to jump start it!

5^th A third grader, when asked, “How has God been wonderful to you?” responded saying, “God answers MY PRAYERS.”  And He does!  She has been faithfully praying for her mother.  Just this month, her mother started going to church and to weekly Bible study.  She has also given up smoking, drinking, found a new job, and is getting ready to go back to school.  The love of God is radically transforming her life and she has now become very bold in her commitment to change.  To our surprise one night after prayer, the child asked us if we would come up to read the sign posted on her door which said, “Do Not Smoke in this house…Keep it outside.”  

6^th A single mother needed help in paying her rent this month.   United In Him prayed about how to help her, and God placed the EXACT same amount on our hearts in which to give to her. 

7^th We have been talking to the children about praying for their enemies.  This week we challenged them to pick one person to pray for, and encouraged them to show them the love of Jesus.  After 1 day of prayer, Ieisha said, “My enemy has now become my friend.”  Praise God!

8^th Rayquan (7yrs old) was lost from 3:30 - 9:00 p.m. on Monday night when one of the United In Him volunteers began praying in the Spirit and found him 1 mile from his home.
