Hello!
Yay! It is finally feeling a bit like summer here in London. I know that for those of you who live here like I do, you are probably enjoying the long awaited top up of Vitamin D as I am. My Florida blood could still do with it being about 10 degrees hotter but I will take what I can get ha ha.
This past month I had the privilege of preaching at our Stratford Congregation in East London. There was a powerful time of ministry at the end - Thank you Holy Spirit! - and on my way home I got news that one of the men who had been in the service gave his life to the Lord! God is good!
We also started Follow One, Two and Three this month with 40 people attending classes. I have taught in each of them this term and it’s so exciting to see ages 15 to 50 across the classes! Also, to see people growing at every stage in their walk and going deeper into a relationship with Christ.
I had an opportunity to take a short Holiday to Lisbon this month as well. I was in need of rest and sun, and took the time to go to a new place where I know that Every Nation will be doing a church plant hopefully in the next year or so. I love new places and took this time to not only relax but also to walk around the city and pray for future breakthrough to reach students
on the Universities. I came across this quote on one of the Campus signs that says “What we don’t know today, we will know tomorrow.” I got excited when I read this because I said YES! You might not know who Jesus is now BUT you will know Him in the near future!
On my last day in Lisbon I also got to have lunch with the young couple who will be planting the church. We had a wonderful time dreaming about what God can do in Lisbon and a powerful time of prayer. It was so good to be able to pray and encourage them as they walk out this new adventure.
Finally, I will be going to America for the month of July to do my annual support raising as well as attending our Every Nation World Conference.
If you are in Florida and would like to meet up between the dates of July2-13 please let me
know as soon as possible.
Thank you for all of your prayers and continuous support to reach the nations!
Lots of Love

Hello!
This past month has been a combination of highs and lows. But mostly highs! As I mentioned in my last letter we were getting ready to have another New Decisions Course. Over the years I have seen so many people’s lives changed as they have gone through this course of breaking patterns in their lives that were created by decisions made in the past. As you have probably heard so many people say before – your past does not have to dictate your future! BUT sometimes we need help recognising and breaking patterns that have been created because of past situations in our lives. This course does that very thing and it is amazing to see the transformation that takes place over 5 days!
We had 27 people from 6 churches across England, Belgium and Austria join us for the course. You can see the joy from our last day on the course in this picture!
One of my highs here in London is helping students develop a relationship with God and walking with them as they fall deeper in love with Him and teaching them to pass that relationship on to others. Over the past years I have had the privilege of walking with these 4 amazing young ladies as they studied to become doctors. They officially became doctors in April and this month we said goodbye to them as they set out on their last placement before their graduation. Each of them has gone to another country to practice medicine for about 8 weeks. Jessica to Nepal, Nikkita to Madagascar, Lydia to Swaziland and Seraphina to Singapore. What’s exciting is Nikkita has had a huge part in Jessica, Lydia and Seraphina following Jesus and now all of them have a desire to share Jesus on this time away and God is already opening doors for some of them!
You have a part in not only reaching these ladies but in every seed that they might plant in the coming weeks, months and years! Thank you for loving, blessing, believing in, and praying for me!
Lots of Love

Hello!
This past month has been an interesting one. After my return from our European Campus Conference in Poland, I started feeling unwell. I thought it was a normal cold and pushed through with the usual medications but unfortunately nothing seemed to help and I became worse. I ended up with a chest infection and signed off of work from the doctor. If you know me, sitting around doing nothing is very hard for me!
Unfortunately, there is not much to report as I spent a lot of time home resting and recuperating. I am feeling 100% now and back into the swing of things! Thank you as always for praying for me.
One major highlight though, is that I am now officially a British Citizen! Just in case you are
wondering, I can have both a US and UK passport. Because I travel so much, having a UK passport will allow my travelling in and out of the UK so much easier.
Coming up, we have a New Decisions Course, where we have 24 people coming from all over
Europe to attend. I love this course because it
has been so key in helping people break free from cycles in their lives due to past experiences.
You have no idea how much I appreciate all of your prayers and support. Thank you for believing in the call on my life and for praying for me as I serve the nations here in London.
Lots of Love
