Greetings to all
We thought of sending you a quick note to let you know how things are evolving in Lebanon and specially with us
I am sure you are hearing in the news about all the turmoil in Lebanon and the new bomb attacks that are targeting civilians in commercial areas. Well the last bomb exploded last night a 100 meters from Michel's office. But our God is a wonderful protector and I am not talking only for us but he divinely, appointed a bus to park exactly where the bomb would take off so that the bus ( empty) would take the blow and not one person died or got seriously injured. The story is that the terrorists had planted a bomb under a car parked across the street from a busy commercial center and was timed to blow at 8.30 PM . The bus driver stopped his bus and went down to get a sandwich. While there , the bomb exploded and the bus was totally destroyed but lives were preserved. Praise the Lord!
We are presently praying a lot for Lebanon and specifically for the next phase where rumors are that a civil war is going to happen and that our president now is the last Christian president. But we do believe that our Lord has good plans for Lebanon and that everything is going to work according to that plan. We are praying that God will expose the terrorists, judge the wicked who shed innocent blood and bring a change.
We are experiencing the glory of God in a very tangible way and we are all the more excited about serving him and bring His glory to Lebanon and from there to the whole middle east.
Last week was the global day of prayer and we held a public meeting where Christians from all denominations were invited to join. The overall atmosphere in Lebanon was one of fear because of threats to blow Christian areas and many many got fearful and did not come . In fact all activities whether spiritual or social were cancelled that week. However, we continued with our plan thinking that there is no better time to pray and ask the Lord to visit our land . We had a representative from the president of the republic and representatives from different parties and denominations. Around 400 people were there defying fear and lifting Lebanon before the Lord. We do believe that a shift in the atmosphere happened that day and we are starting to see results.
The newest thing on our plate is the launching of a House of worship that will be an altar before the Lord and from where worship will go night and day and where the glory of God will rest. We are now very busy in logistics for that place. We rented an underground warehouse still on plain cement , made blue prints and started the internal construction . We hope that by the end of this month it will be functional. We will let you know of the opening date and we would love for you to be with us .
Personal news:
- Our family is growing with the Lord and all our kids are now to some point involved in worship and they will be leading the youth and the kids worship times in the house of worship.
- We are preparing 2 new cds: one for kids and one prophetic.
- Our kids TV program is still waiting for the Lord to call it off the shelves. But he has the perfect timing doesn't he??
- We are also holding couples meetings that proved to be quite beneficial to many.
Remember us in your prayers
And for any involvment in the house of worship please contact us. ( ie if you know of musicians , intercessors or anyone who would like to serve there)
Blessings
Michel and Nuna
