Pillars Of Clouds & Fire Ministries NEST

A desire to see His Kingdom come here in New England and that the flames of revival would rise high and move into all the nations. Because you do not want to play church, but you want to be the church. Because while meetings are good, you want the meeting in the street, the mall or your workplace, to dwarf what happened in "church." You want to be with like minded people.

NEST UPDATES Lake George Date "You shall enjoy!"


Hi guys:

I am officially announcing the date for this retreat. It will be
November 17-19. I need a count by the weekend to make sure it is all
set. We will begin arriving after noon on Friday and will bug out on
Sunday after lunch. We gathered as much data as we could from those who
sent it and made a decision. We realize that not everyone can come and
we are sorry. If you have questions about anything regarding this
gathering, please contact Tina or I.

Note-we are looking for someone that would be willing to help out
administratively a little. Mailings, data collection and a few phone
calls from time to time. You will mostly be working with Tina.

Note-there is no childcare for the meetings we will be doing. This is a
couples and individuals retreat this time.

We will be praying with one another, eating, worshipping, eating,
enjoying the Lord, eating, strategizing for January and beyond (Which
includes a theme), (Did I say eating???) You will enjoy this time
immensely. You will be able to commune with God and all His creation. I
promise you this will be like no retreat you have ever been on.

We are preparing for our first invitational gathering of leaders in
January to be announced date wise. I am reviewing other calendars so
that we will conflict as little as possible.

For more information on NEST visit our blog site listed below.

Other dates on our website below list ministries we work with and their
meetings we feel will bless the body of Christ here in New England.

You will also note an October 13-14th meeting. You can read the
thoughts by clicking on the calendar days.

I need your help, your prayers, your thoughts. We want to connect you
with one another. I am hoping some of the ministries I work with will
be able to attend that Saturday. You will find some of the links here.

NEST UPDATES 9/13 Update & Links


Hi guys:

#1 Good morning in the name of Jesus!
#2 We will have the date resolved for Lake George. If you even want to
come for one day to this retreat, you will need to let me know. This
will be coming out tonight and we will be making reservations. This is
for individuals and couples. We can not work out child care for this
one. It will be a time of connecting and fellowship and prayer. This is
a beautiful place. Link below.
#3 We have had a lot of good "press" and people are asking abut the
January gathering. We will be discussing this at the November
Retreat-we may stage a one day meeting here in October. That has not
been decided. We have had business people asking if they could be part
of the big picture. Please continue to press in for this.
#4 Jesus Freak Racing Ministries is up and running-see below. Shirts
and hats for donations are available.
#5 Small business-I have been working with some small businesses as
part of the vision for the business network. In October, I will be
running a morning meeting for prayer and fellowship. If you are in
business or have a heart for business and think you would like to
pursue this, let me know. I will be posting information at link below.
#6-Money-You heard Tina say it at the meeting. "This will take a lot of
money." We presently are receiving offerings and tithes from some
people. We appreciate this. We have had help with an investment that
will be made available to each of you shortly. It is already a blessing
to our ministry. We would like to see it provide income for other
ministries across the nation.
#7 If there are people you would like to see on this list, please let
them and/or me know.
#8 Deeper Relationships-This is a hand of our local ministry. More
information will be appearing on our local link below. It will be on
Tuesdays. It will be a meal, worship and prayer for one another,
specifically in the area of FINANCE. This will be a regular meeting.
#9 For years I have been meeting with a pastor at a local restaurant on
Wednesdays @ 8. If you are interested in joining us, please let me know.
#10 Missions-We discussed this at the meeting-we have 2 present
opportunities, we would like to consider. I have placed photos of
Scotland & Tanzania for those of you to pray for the people. The couple
is in Scotland and their names are Terry & June. The "preacher man" is
my friend George in Tanzania.
#11 Database-we would like to have information from you other than
email address. We want to communicate to all your senses! Also, send us
your birthdays and anniversaries, so we can bless you!
#12-Prayer-we know many of you have been going through the mill, so to
speak and we want to pray for you. Please let us know your prayer
requests, by posting on the blog. If you have questions about this, let
me know.
#13-Your ministry-We want you to post your meetings on the blog so
others can attend-again of you have questions about this, please let me
know. There are a couple posted there now.

That's all for now-the Lake George Retreat meeting information will be
out tonight.

New England Home Fellowship Group Pastors' Retreat

Net2Church Global Ministries is sponsoring the first Home Fellowship Groups of New England conference and retreat. This retreat is for all who are engaged in leading home fellowship ministries of any type, but is particularly for those acting as home fellowship pastors and their spouses and for those that they invite, as well as for those seeking to minister with these groups.

The purpose of this gathering is to help these pastors to develop relationships throughout New England with other home fellowship pastors, and to share their vision and testimonies with others for home fellowship ministry in general.

Spring of 2007 (Exact date yet to be determined)
Intervarsity's Toah Nipi Christian Retreat Center in Rindge, NH is the location for this extraordinary event. Come and take part in this gathering as we address the question; What is God saying to the home fellowship pastors, and why is it time to enable them to build a network and encourage itinerant activities throughout this network?

The setting for this retreat is a wilderness setting with a pond, miles of hiking trails, and plenty of area to find quiet and solitude to practice the presence of God, either alone or perhaps with a spouse.

There are rooms available for this overnight retreat on a pre-registration basis, provided without cost through the generosity of Gregg Hodgson, Director of Toah Nipi, who's only request is that we pay for meals ($20/ea) and take a love offering instead of the normal $50 overnight fee. WOW!

We will gather on Sunday afternoon for introductions beginning at 1:00PM as people begin to arrive throughout the afternoon, and break bread together for an evening meal and time of sharing between 5:00 PM and 6:00 PM. Following dinner, we will have a time of quiet gathering campfire-style with acoustic instruments and open discussion, as well as worship and prayer, all mixed in as the Lord leads.

Monday morning is a time of solitude and a time to seek God in all of His creation in this beautiful New England nature setting before gathering to break bread again (breakfast). Following breakfast we will gather for corporate prayer and discussion of any prophetic word that might be shared for everyone's benefit before breaking bread (lunch) one last time. The afternoon will be a time of "raising a joyful noise-style" worship and "free time" to network or enjoy the surroundings again before departing.

Please come, take part, and let us get to know you.
Let us know soon for the planning of food and rooms!

In His love,
David R. Thayer, Director of Ministries

NEST UPDATES 9/6 & Lake George & Prayers

Dear Friends:

Let me first apologize for not being in touch more frequently as we
approach the November Lake George Getaway in November. We have
experienced intense warfare and some pretty cool stuff. (I am going to
list prayer needs for the group here. You may ask for prayer yourself
by being a "member" of this board. Simply go to the blog site. Many of
us have experienced attack in our physical beings, our emotional realms
and our finances. We need to pray for one another. And let's be honest,
having that phone ring and realizing you are not alone is important. We
are working n the final date for Lake George. (Does anyone have "I
can't come that weekend days-other than Thanksgiving?)

And now let me apologize for 2 copies cuz I still don't have the email
program figured out.

Yesterday I ministered for 45 minutes to an unbeliever. A troubled
youth of 22. We shall see, but I feel Jesus made inroads as I gave him
a ride home. This is part of what NEST is about. Many of you know that
we have a had a financial struggle on our hands here. We are trying to
get the ministry up, getting some things righted. AS I looked for a
"job" I reviewed ministry. One website(Not Christian) had over 250
youth ministry positions out of 350 ministry positions. Interesting.
Part of NEST has to be an emphasis on the youth. Not to say "this is
how we do it" but to be their friend.

If you have a ministry please use this board to discuss meetings, etc.

We will have more out this weekend.

Blessings,
lee
