Are you going with us to Matamoros, Evotion?

Now, that question got your attention.
 
Through prayer and contemplation of the actions of God, it is my earnest conclusion that a link exists between revival in Oklahoma City and revival in Matamoros.  Our team from OKC is headed again to Matamoros August 12th-14th for Back to School and ministry time.

Revival
Revival is a concerted and tangible change in a community to live according to the principles of the kingdom of God in business, community, congregation, government, and personal life.

Matamoros
The environment of Matamoros is violent and hopeful. There are many people looking to God to bring answers to the cartel wars that rage in this border town. A group of congregations is working to see support for an outreach and church led by Dr. Carillo. CAREVI, House of Restoration and Life hosts a men's recovery center alongside a congregation. Over the last few years the congregation has grown significantly from a few people to maximized attendance at over 200. Families are entering into the kingdom, not just individuals. This is the type impact Christianity must see to change a community, to see revival.

Other congregations are gaining interest in joining in the revival. They are not just looking for financial assistance, but spiritual impact.

Raul
Raul Machado is a key man in this work. Raul came from Matamoros and lives in Oklahoma City. His an American citizen as was his father. Yet, Mexico is on his heart as his extended family lives there. Over the years, Raul has taken hope and healing into CAREVI through food and clothing and supplies.

Phil
Phil Larson and PrayerMetro joined Raul three years ago. This brought a powerful spiritual element to the work of compassion. Miracles are happening deep in the lives of the people.

Others
The congregations of IVVC, Betesda, Antioch, Faith Latino, Eagle's Crest, Tabernaculo de Fe, and Segundo Nazareno have joined to help. Some businessmen have also helped. There is a building support base of prayer and action from Oklahoma City to Matamoros. It is working.

Revival Needs Wood
When a fire starts, it must be fed fresh daily. The fire started in Matamoros and Oklahoma City needs wood added in both areas. In Matamoros, we must add congregations.  They have started coming to us.   In Oklahoma City, we must add spiritual renewal and joint compassionate works. Both cities should be experiencing simultaneous revival.
 

Are You Going With Us?
You can go with us. 
You can send funds to buy school supplies for the children by going to www.prayermetro.com and using you credit/debit card via PayPal.  It is easier to buy in Mexico and helps the local economy.
You can pray.  We need focused, believing prayer for safety, healing of mind and body and spirit.
You can come.  Yes, you can come.  Only the courageous and called need apply.  Matamoros is not a safe city.  Any place in faith is safe when you are called and confident.  No place is safe when you are out of God's time and call.
 
Stay in prayer.
Stay tuned for results.
