We are dedicated to teaching children to worship the One True God in Spirit and in Truth.  The Lord has given us new and creative lessons to teach children they are Priests and Kings before the Lord.  Each child receives a T-shirt with a priestly breastplate and is taught about worship as it was in the Tabernacle and worship as it is pictured for us in Revelation 4.  We pray the children experience intimacy before the Lord and learn who they are in Christ Jesus and Who He is in them.

What a terrific summer and opening fall season!  The Lord has blessed us and opened doors in area churches to minister to children and train teachers.  We are eager to share with you what the Lord has been doing.

Beth Messiah, Gaithersburg, MD
During June, July, August and September Jack, Barbara, Thomas and Hannah ministered to the Children’s Shabbot School at Beth Messiah each Saturday.  We taught our new curriculum, The Seven Spirits of God as listed in Isaiah 11:2.

King of the Nations, Rockville, MD
The month of September we ministered each Sunday to the children at King of the Nations teaching our lesson series Priest and Kings. 
 

Sue Fremerman, our intercessory prayer partner and friend, joined us.  Sue uses her experience as a schoolteacher and her spiritual gifts to minister inner healing and words of encouragement  to the children and teachers.

Diane Gaylord, our long time friend in ministry, also joined our team at King of the Nations using her gifts and experience as an altar worker to minister to the children in prayer and prophetic ministry.

Tree of Life Chinese Church, Potomac, MD
The month of October our team taught the children each Sunday morning. The Lord has led us to continue teaching through the remainder of the year helping to begin a mentoring program with the teens and children's ministry.

Ethiopian Church in Washington, DC 
Also during October and into November Jack and Barbara will lead the teachers in training and minister to the children each Sunday morning. In October the Kidz Team from Baltimore at God's House brought Praise and Worship in the dance opening New Horizons for the children at the Ehtiopian Church.

Northgate Community Church, Montgomery Village, MD
Thomas led the Middle School aged children in weekly youth group meetings. 

Thomas was the Art Director for this conference.  Below are some of the pieces of art given by the Lord during the prophetic flow of music and intercession. 
 
 

Thomas Bloomquist attended a Prophetic Prayer Conference praying for the country of Vietnam in Biloxi, Mississippi in September.
	The picture began with two fists drawn by Thomas. Then several different people at the conference began drawing on the picture.  As the people at the conference worshiped, it was discerned that chains needed to be broken over Vietnam to set the people free to worship – people pictured being set free and a path or road leading to the heavenly realm.
Pictured on the right is Revelation 22:2 “…and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.”  Drawn by Hannah and later someone prayed, not seeing the drawing, that the people in the nation would be healed from the Tree of Life from hurts caused in the war.

We know the Lord has called us to the nations.  After searching where we would serve, it has become clear that God has led us to serve indigenous pastors, teachers and leaders in different countries – especially third world unreached countries where tribal children need to hear the gospel. These are the people God has given us a burden.  And, during the past three years we have developed our own teaching curriculum that has proven very effective overseas.

We hope to publish the curriculum in the next few months to help finance our ministry here in the USA and also help us to continue to go to the nations with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

We need intercessory prayer partners and we are asking you to prayerfully consider supporting us in prayer.  We would be honored to have you as a prayer partner.

OUR PRAYER NEEDS

1. That we would be sensitive to the Holy Spirit’s leading and to His timing on where we would serve.
2. That our health would continue to improve.  For strength in mind and body for both Jack and Barbara. And, our son, Thomas would continue to prosper in health and in ministry.
3. For signs, wonders, and miracles to follow as we minister. That many lives be touch and transformed, as we become conduits of his anointing.
4. That creativity would flow, new ideas, and lasting impressions be embedded into the minds and spirits of this generation of children and young teens.
5. That children we teach would love God and desire to worship Him in Spirit and in truth.  That they come to know him as personal Savior and receive Him as Lord of their life.
6. That intercessors would be raised up to pray for us daily.
7. That finances and support be provided in abundance as needed through the publication of children’s curriculum.
