Love On Puerto Rico

Friends and Family, (if you would like this letter via e-mail or snail mail including the pictures, please send your address to julieheth@gmail.com),
I write to you from sunny (but cold) California! It’s a joy to share with you what’s been happening, and I’m so thankful to have you in my life. I’m at Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry in Redding, California. I arrived early September. I’m learning about God’s love for me, for people, and how to co-labor with what He’s doing in the earth. I work for Management Consulted editing resumes and cover letters. This was a huge blessing that I found a job where I can work from home and set my hours to not miss any school obligations. I live in an apartment with 4 amazing women and have made friends from all over the world within the 950 first year students and countless 2nd and 3rd years.

In a house church we help host in our neighborhood, here are a few of the miracles we have gotten to experiene in the last two weeks:
• Getting to pray over and bless three beautiful kids of a newly saved mom
• An 11 year old boy getting his prayer language
• A lady’s toes getting healed instantly through prayer
• Everyone liking my cooking (we always share a meal)… Miracle!
• God graciously changing us students/leaders to think and act more like JESUS.

This year, I will have the opportunity to activate what I’m learning in many ways, one of which is a missions trip with Bethel International, a ministry of the church.

The heart and passion of Bethel International is to raise up a generation of world changers that will be known simply for their reckless abandonment to see that Jesus is Lord in all the nations. As we are building relationships with various regions around the world… Our strategy is to raise up influencers in their own nations so they begin to run with the inheritance that God has given them to transform their nation. All Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry trips are partnered with Bethel International’s vision for transforming nations.

I will be going with a team of 10 led by Chris Cruz, a passionate revivalist pastor of Bethel. Chris has felt a pull from God to go to Puerto Rico this year and see what He will unfold. The trip will largely be focused on scouting out the region, ministering in the street, potentially ministering at churches and stepping into doors the Lord opens. This will be a journey of catching what God opens for us.
Our goal is to catch Gods heart and partner with what He is doing in Puerto Rico.
The trip dates are March 23 – April 1 and the cost is $1,950.

I felt a pull to this trip because of my passion for pioneering new territory. I am thrilled to be a part of adding a new country to the list of 25+ that Bethel students get to bless and partner with!

PLEASE PRAY: For God to pave the way for amazing partnerships to form with the local church and for the lives of individuals to be transformed. Pray that when we step out, God would show off, that people may know Jesus!
