2004
Many live events again this past year. Of note were those occasions geared to the protection of life from point of conception. We hope to be more involved in moving this important cause forward in the future.
With the close of Studio 99, I have set up an efficient tracking studio at home over the last three months and began to learn the software. I have also decided to use “live drums” on the next cd and have begun the pre-production process with Scott Walsh (tasty guitar solo on Man in the Middle on the 1996 Call to Witness CD) and Mike Mascioi at Scott’s studio called Sound Creations. (A great place to record if you are looking!)
Angelina and I found ourselves doing a lot of travelling in the last couple of months of the year. Our trip to the U.S. was wonderful and we met some great folks in North Carolina. Of note were our speaking engagements in southern Ontario which proved to be very fruitful…we are looking forward to returning and ministering there again as the Lord would lead.
Worshipfest 2004 was again the highlight of the summer! We opened up for Robin Mark and Nicole C. Mullen on the Sunday night. The addition of Paul VanRemortal on lead guitar gave our set some edge that was enjoyed by all. We took this same line-up into the Father Stan Fortuna weekend at the Bronson Centre in September

2003
A “Rest in His Presence” house event is an intimate evening of prayer songs, prayer, story telling, and time in the Word. It can be arranged with existing cell groups or you can host it with others the Lord may put on your heart. It’s great to begin by sharing a meal together with everyone bringing something. It usually will last a couple of hours and a 7:30 to 9:30 PM time frame works well excluding the meal if that is happening. The night is all about His agenda and it is a time for us all to just “rest”. Hebrews 4:7 and 10 says, “Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts.”…”Let us, therefore make every effort to enter that rest.” Psalm 46:10 says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”
December 6th, 2003 we travelled to the Smith Falls area for our first Rest in His Presence house event. What a blessing it was to fellowship with the folks there. We were a little overwhelmed to find out that twenty-two people would be attending. The night started with a wonderful pot luck and then we moved into Kevin and Rachel Wills’ (amazing hosts with the gift of hospitality) great room for the rest of the evening. The Lord led us in many directions with a few surprises along the way. We want to thank all who were were there as well as Shawn and Kathy O’neill for organizing it
Rest in His presence began in London, Ontario in the fall of 2000. about ten or twelve of us began to get together on Wednesday nights with no agenda but His. I would lead us in some songs and then share the gospel. The Lord stirred our hearts and some folks experienced radical conversions. We drew very close as we worshiped and spent time in His word together every week. In June of 2001 a number were baptized and declared by public testimony their desire to become all His.
