John 17 Unity at Miami University
It was so great to see the Lord bring so many groups together for the purpose of Loving Jesus and building God’s kingdom in the students at Miami U. Several groups came together and deserve to be mention. First, Daniella Gibbons and the New Life Vineyard; they poured themselves out, as a drink offering, to see this outreach happen; they gave all the sound equipment, coffee, and time to make this outreach a success. Next, Skyline restaurant of Oxford are faithful people; the Jones and their staff did an amazing job hosting the team, praying during the event, and praying for years before had. Also, the Oxford Vineyard helped in many ways by: encouragement and helping with permit procedures, allowing us to park in their spaces, praying for students, and providing bibles for the ones we prayed with. The Cincinnati House of Prayer also came out to help and helped provide necessary resources before hand to make this event a success. And the IHOPU students were a blessing; they lead prayer and worship in the square, sent teams around Oxford to pray with those in need, and faithfully reached out and prayed with many, many, people. Lastly, my wife and children (whom I love so much) were tremendous. They changed their plans, did my chores so I could do other planning, helped make signs, and prayed many times for this event. I am so thankful for them.
