hi all-
we are officially back from india! yay. we are currently in the process of recovering from jet lag. 2 nights ago, the 3 of us laid down for a nap at 3 pm and didn’t wake up officially until 6am the next day!! That will help for sure. So with that being said, Halle Lue or “Lue Lue” as we like to call her, has adjusted super well. Today (our 3rd day back) she has been more of her normal playful self. Pics to come.
On a more serious note, we are going into the hospital on 2/2 to have an ultrasound done again of her kidney. If you remember, she had kidney issues in the womb and they were still there at birth. this will be our 1st ultrasound since she was about 3 weeks old. We are believing for her to be completely HEALED and no trace of hydroneuphrosis (swollen kidney) to even be there. So we are going to take 2/1 (tomorrow) to fast and push into God again for her healing. He is the healer and His desire is for her to be healed. So if you feel led, please join with us that day to pray.
LOVE LOVE LOVE ya’ll.

Five Days left and counting…(austin at least)…
As we get ready to head back to the states our team has been busy handing off our relationships with the team here in India and establishing the H.C.’s, tying off any loose ends. There have been five H.C.’s initiated and I think three that are going to stick and reproduce which is a most succesfull trip for our team. Robyn and I are learning more and more about leadership and ministry in the midst of a growing family structure which is a blast!
We have been learning a ton about the Koran, Islamic culture and how to proclaim Jesus as the living God. It has been difficult cutting through our personal comfort to speak the truth about Jesus being the ONLY God and Savior, but his presence and power always follows the bold declaration! We have seen tons of healings of aches, headaches and pains, a women with arthritis has been totally healed for about two weeks, a patially deaf man recived full hearing in one hear and a man with a blind eye recived full sight in that eye.
If you could pray for three things
1. the H.C.’s get established and rooted in Jesus well
2. that we would finish this last push week well
3. Halle would adjust well to the time change coming home!!!
thanks for all your support
love
austin

hi all-
The title is spanish for week 2. We have completed week one here in India! I’m so excited. Most of what we have been seeing is healings followed by people coming to know Jesus. Here are some awesome testimonies:
Some men on our team were talking about the truth to a few men in an influencial market area. They were sharing about how there are different “signs” that point to Jesus. After meeting with them 3-4 days in a row, the men finally decided that these “signs” were telling the truth, and 2 came to know the Sign from God!
God has been showing up at a local salon where we have been getting our hair cut and nails done. We have been in there 3 times, and all 3 times we have seen someone healed. The manager got healed of arthritis in her knees and danced in front of us. She was so touched that she called all the employees into her office to hear about the great Healer. Another time, a man burned his hands and was unable to wash them without pain. He couldn’t even put them in water. And after praying for him, he washed his hands with soap! He was healed. A few of us are headed back to try and meet weekly with people to talk about this Healer!
We have been so touched by God as well. Austin and I are now leading the trip. When you get pushed into the unknown, its fun to rely on God to lead you and guide you. Our times together as a team have been sweeter and sweeter. I look forward to the rest of what is going to happen. Please continue to pray for our health and protection and seeing God move!
Some thing(s) in the future:
1) A Day trip to help and encourage people way below the poverty line.
Thanks for reading the updates!

Hi all-
We have officially made it! We are on our short term trip half-way around the world! We’re safe, our bags made it, and we’re getting over jet lag. We just wanted to post some quick prayer points because we need you in it with us. Here are some points that we are all praying together! Thanks for joining with us!
1. Protection for the team – Pray that God would send His angels to guard over and protect the team in every possible way.
2. Salvations and Supernatural Power – Pray that the team would see salvations and that signs and wonders would happen.
3. Churches – Pray that the team would leave behind house churches of those who are willing to make disciples.
