Columbus, Ohio Are words necessary? Notice that we are not doing it all... Everyone participates! Everyone has fun... and Jesus has all the glory! Another terrific week!

Day of Healing
August 4 – Columbus, Ohio Some healing school students wh
o missed last week's Tuesday class drew the anointing of the Holy Spirit from our garments and fell out. Brenda, her first time at the class, tried it and lifted her arms straight up over her head without pain for the first time in years…. see photo. Her daughter, Traci, tried it and dissolved into joy, saying: “Jesus is right here in front of me! He’s right here!”
We experienced His presence all day long, for He healed three people we ministered to at a lunch function. One man was released from stiffness in his right leg; his wife walked away just carrying her walking-stick; and another lady was healed from back pain, as well as we ministered to her for diabetes and thyroid issues.
John came to our class specifically for healing of a hernia. A writer and journalist, he watched everything very carefully. We ministered to him and now we wait for the good report. He took a bunch of our cards as he left. We encourage any who are sick to come and receive ministry. What do you have to lose but your sickness?
Drawing from the hem of His garment
July 28 & 30 – Columbus, Ohio A glorious healing class Tuesday night... All were drunk in the Spirit drawing from the hem of His garment (pictured right). Jesus was seen in the Spirit moving from person to person. Our students were left wondering if they could safely drive home! This was repeated in our Thursday night class when we had another time of soaking and extended ministry.
We are hearing how our prayer cloths are bringing healings and even financial blessings.

Lion and Eagle Christian Center
Columbus, Ohio We have restarted fellowship meetings in our home on Sunday evenings…. with no agenda but the Holy Spirit’s agenda… Holy Ghost fire… fun & laughter… freedom in the Spirit… healing… deliverance… loving one another (photo)... four or five hours of church according to the New Testament model…. a place to use and develop your spiritual gifts and to be built up in your most holy faith.
People start coming at 5pm and often stay until after 10.00pm, though free to go when they like. Time goes so fast when God is moving.
All are welcome.

Doctors confirm healing
July 14 - Columbus, Ohio Jon and Michelle came to class tonight brandishing Michelle's medical report. She said she just knew that she had been healed the moment she was prayed for last week... and now she has the test results to prove it. A nodule in her breast that was plainly visible in her last mammogram, is no longer visible... totally disappeared! Glory to Jesus!

Small world
July 7 – Columbus, Ohio Another great healing class tonight… arms and legs grew out as backs were adjusted by the power of God; there were pelvic adjustments; burdens were lifted and curses broken. Some of our students are so eager to include their friends in our classes that they are paying for their friends’ registration.
Jesus sure was in the house tonight! Two new students received the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues. Michelle was in tears as she had been seeking the baptism for such a long time and had even begun to think she might never receive it.
She and her husband Jon (pictured foreground) were so excited to read about us on our website and so eager to come along to class.
Michelle is from England. Jon is American. What a surprise and blessing it was for Eric to hear another British accent. And what an even greater surprise and blessing to discover that she had lived in exactly the same area of South East England where we lived… on the Sussex coast… and they shopped for their groceries at the same Tesco superstore! Two weeks later we learned that Michelle is the sister-in-law of a preacher we know there!

New Healing Schools
June 25 – Columbus Ohio Two new Healing Ministry Schools started this week, one a 10 week course, the other 18 weeks long. We have many new students and we thank God for each one. Dave Harvey (June 11) has started the 10 week course. He was reporting himself still healed and pain-free (of course) in his shoulder and arm… and now he wanted healing of sciatica and pain in his knees. God so touched him, he just sat and soaked in the presence. He said, “Now I don’t need codeine…” Karen was healed of neck and knee problems. Fred needed his back adjusted. He got it, praise God!
We heard that Pastor Lou (June 20) had two hernias completely healed... and the two other hernias were closing up fast.
It's never too late for new students to join these schools part-way through, as they can make up missed modules by special arrangements or just roll on into the next school and complete them that way.
We also welcome all who are sick, no matter how serious, and who simply want to be well. Just come along! What have you got to lose but your sickness or infirmity.

Graduations
June 20 - Columbus, Ohio This week we graduated two Healing Minis
try Classes and we are ready to start new classes this coming week. Not everyone who starts
manages to complete the courses, so very many congratulations to those who do!
We were pleased to meet a retired pastor in his late seventies who came to one of the graduations for healing. He had undergone heart and bowel surgery in the past, had hernias in four places, and also had problems with his knees. LaVonne had a word of knowledge that something traumatic had occurred when he was 54. She asked him and he said his father died then.
The power of God was so strong on him that he could not stand. He dropped on to a chair we had placed behind him. He said he had never experienced anything like this before and would certainly be coming to the new classes

Healing testimonies
June 14 - Springfield Ohio Dave and his friend came with us to church in Springfield today. David testified he is still free from arm and shoulder pain... of course; and Pastor Jim testified to the church of his healing on June 1.
Lift weights again
June 11 – Galloway Ohio Dave was brought by a friend to healing class with a su
ch a list of health issues, he seemed a sign and a wonder in being alive! He said doctors once gave him only one day to live. Of course we ministered to all his complaints but the ones that would yield visible signs of healing straight away were some protruding C and L discs, two pinched nerves, and a painful shoulder and arm.
During ministry, he said, it was all he could do to stay on his feet because of the power of God all over him. After ministry, he confessed that the pains in his shoulder and arm were all gone. The muscles in his neck were now so strong and relaxed, and he had such power in his hands, he felt he could begin lifting weights again! Before ministry he said he could not tilt his head back or roll it around, but as we ministered, we watched him doing both. Thank You, Jesus!

June 2 – Galloway, Ohio Actually, a kid goat! In our healing ministry class tonight Liz testified that she had prayed for a kid born blind with white eyes on her farm… and now the goat can see and its eyes are no longer white! Our star pupil! (pun intended)
Among the highlights of the class itself: Tim drew healing from the hem of his wife’s garment and was healed of a painful left foot. Liz ministered to Mildred for a painful heel and Mildred was healed. She also ministered to her for deafness in her left ear and she began to hear. Mildred ministered to LaVonne suffering with a sinus headache which went instantly.
A great evening. Glory to God!
Texas Ro
adhouse
June 1 - Columbus, Ohio We were having dinner with Pastors Jim and Karen Britton at a Texas Roadhouse restaurant. As we finished our meal he mentioned his back had been paining him and had caused him to enter the restaurant with a rather restricted gait. His back had stiffened even more during the meal. So Eric prayed for his back right there in the restaurant and he was instantly healed. He so testified two weeks later before his congregation.
LaVonne stopped a waitress and asked if she might pray for her. The waitress asked her, “Do I look like I need prayer?” LaVonne ignored the question and simply prayed that the dreams deep in her heart that she desperately wanted to come to pass and which were in line with God’s plans and purposes for her, would come to pass and quickly. The waitress responded: “I don’t know how you knew I needed that; but I needed that!”
On her way out of the building, God gave LaVonne a word for another waitress, and when she shared it with her, the waitress thanked her. It had spoken to her need.
Posted June 2 Updated June 14
May 19 – Galloway, Ohio We watched God bring deep inner healing, which led to physical healing of a long-standing complaint and made a walking-stick redundant. Glory to Jesus!

Who's got who?
May 14 – Columbus, Ohio Eric went across town to minister to an 85 year old with leg pains. God made chiropractic adjustments to her back and the leg pains went. She said to Eric: “You know how to get hold of God!” Eric replied: “Reverse order - God’s got hold of me!”
Rewarding week
May 9 - Galloway, Ohio (Columbus west) Our Healing Schools this week were very rewarding in terms of inner healing to some.
Liz goes from strength to strength. This week she told us, as well as we heard from others, that her pastor gave permission for her to minister on Sunday with the elders at the front of her church. In Jesus’ name she cast a spirit of depression out of one person who fell under the power of God and lay screaming on the floor. So Liz hugged her close for a while and then told her to start praising the Lord. She did as instructed and broke through into joy! Hallelujah!
Today’s “Super Saturday” saw three new people come who received ministry…. legs and arms grew out and stomach sickness and shoulder pain were healed. One of the newcomers was so impressed, she’s decided to join our Healing Ministry School this coming Tuesday. Praise the Lord!
No need of assistance
Sunday May 3 – Springfield, Ohio June was walking stiffly using a walker. She complained of arthritis in her lower back and hips and a knee injury from a car wreck. Eric ministered to her after the service. She then walked unaided from the church and down the front steps while her daughter followed her carrying her walker. See her pictured right after ministry. Glory to God!
New Healing Ministry Schools begin
April 28 & 30 - Galloway, Ohio (Columbus west) A new Healing Ministry School started Tuesday night in our home. We had a great time of ministry and blessing and getting to know our new students. Every person received prayer. LaVonne flowed in the prophetic and ministered with great insight. God gave her a key to release one man from depression. His response was: “I’m glad I came!” On Thursday night we started a more advanced course for previous students.
Liz testified in the latter class that after a long drive home from South Dakota, she was really aching in her body. She remembered Eric teaching that we can minister chiropractic adjustments to ourselves. So she began to do that. Halfway through the process, however, her phone rang. She was amazed that as she was talking on the phone, the Holy Spirit nevertheless continued to minister to her… she could feel her body parts moving. Candy testified that her doctors have pronounced her cancer-free! Praise the Lord!

Sunday April 26 - Springfield Ohio On April 23rd we heard from Pastor Jim Britton of Word of Faith Family Church that our Healing School graduates had ministered to Dennis the night before; and Dennis had emailed the church to say that he was pain-free.
We talked to him today. He told us he fell a year ago last December and had suffered severe back pain ever since. Three discs in his spine had been misplaced and the doctors had been resisting corrective surgery, recommending therapy instead. On Wednesday night the pain had been so acute, it had made him really miserable. So “our grads” had ministered to him... and God did the rest! Hallelujah!
Posted April 26
April 19 - Columbus, Ohio We were visiting a relative in hospital and after praying for her, we asked the lady in the adjoining bed if she would also like prayer. "Oh yes, very much!" So we prayed for her healing. She thanked us and said: “No one ever prayed for me like that before!” Eric asked her if she knew Jesus. No but she wanted to know Him and be certain of her eternal home; so Eric led her in prayer to Jesus. Hallelujah!
Living Faith
April 7 – Springfield, Ohio We were again on David & Penny Reeves’ Living Faith television show on the Harvest Television Network. We are pictured right with David and Penny on the set (click photo to enlarge). This show reaches hundreds of millions of people through 500 cable tv stations in North & South America, Europe, North Africa and Asia and streams live over the internet. Today HTN welcomed even more viewers through an additional TV station taking the show for the first time. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves of course. However, it's not about us but all for the glory of God. It was humbling to be part of a program that reaches so many millions with the Good News of Jesus Christ. It was a privilege to be asked by David & Penny to preach a short Gospel message and then lead their viewers in a prayer for salvation.
We look forward to going back to Harvest Studios in June for a TBN Regional telecast.

Herniated Disc
April 7 – Columbus, Ohio We were giving a lift to a young man and he asked us inside to pray for his uncle who had been in pain for months with a herniated disc in his lower back. His uncle shed tears of relief as the Holy Spirit healed him and the pain disappeared. Glory to God!

Meaning of Life
Sunday April 5 – Columbus, Ohio We were leaving a parking lot at Riverside Methodist Hospital when the parking attendant noting our ministry credentials asked if he could ask a question. He asked: “What is the meaning of life?” Eric instantly replied, “To find God through Jesus Christ and live in right relationship with Him. Nothing else will give your life meaning.” The man replied: “How insightful.” There was no time to share more, as cars were lined up behind us waiting to leave. Whether he was serious or not, we pray that this seed takes deep root in his heart.

Harvest Television Network
Tuesday March 31 – We were guests on David & Penny Reeves’ "Living Faith" show which reaches hundreds of millions of people through 500 cable television stations in North & South America, Europe, North Africa and Asia and streams live over the internet. After the show, we talked for another couple of hours at least! So David & Penny have asked us back to do another show and also to appear on their TBN show in June which goes out over a TBN regional network across 3 states here in America.

Songs of Deliverance
Sunday March 29 – Springfield, Ohio We lunched at a Perkins restaurant. LaVonne was led by the Spirit to minister to two ladies at separate tables by singing to them: “Why should I feel discouraged? Why should the shadows come? His eye is on the sparrow, and I’m sure He watches me…” Each lady was touched deeply, and one dissolved in tears. Both were Christians and one told her, “I knew you had a word for me as soon as I saw you look at me from across your table.”

"Because someone cared"
Saturday, March 28 – Columus, Ohio We were about to leave Krogers when LaVonne was drawn by the Holy Spirit to a lady buying liquor. She was there with her two granddaughters. She explained that the drink was not for her, as LaVonne, prompted by the Holy Spirit, asked if she needed prayer for anything. Yes, she needed prayer for her sick mother. LaVonne prayed first for her mother, and then for her as the Holy Spirit revealed that she had been the victim of abuse. As LaVonne prayed for her healing from abuse, the lady dissolved in tears. One of the girls asked: "Why are you crying?" Her grandmother replied: “Because someone cared.”
Released from trauma
March 25 -Grove City, Ohio A lady aged 70 was complaining of a stabbing pain in her back and severe muscular spasm all over her body. Her muscles were so tight that her legs had been drawn up under her as she lay in bed trying to sleep; and now she was up she could hardly move around the house. The Lord gave Eric a word of wisdom, namely ‘trauma.’ As we cast out all spirits of trauma and tension, she was released from all muscular spasm and pain and tears came. She said she felt so relaxed and her legs felt like rubber, like the feeling you get when slain in the Spirit and you can’t get up. Her countenance had totally changed… she looked so much softer in her face. As we left, she was going to lie down and catch up on some much needed sleep. Praise the Lord!

Salvations Sunday
March 22 - Springfield, Ohio
We were drawn to the Golden Corral for lunch. LaVonne ‘saw’ us eating there and so we went. LaVonne noticed a lady wearing a back-brace and went over to her table. She asked if she might pray with her for healing and she consented. Then LaVonne led her to Christ.
Earlier at church the Holy Spirit had told her to go talk to a lady at the back. She told LaVonne that she had not been to the church before and that she had just been discharged from hospital for depression. LaVonne led her to Jesus.
After the service we were asked to minister to a child but the Holy Spirit indicated prayer for the mother that would release the child. Long story short: mom gave her heart to Jesus amid tears.
Glory to God!
Running again
March 20 – Fairborn, Ohio We went to minister to a lady suffering from dizziness and depression. She had been having dizzy spells for 20 years but not as severe as those she was experiencing now. After ministry she ran to her front door and back from her living room at the rear of her house several times, and without any problems whatsoever. As she ran, she exclaimed; “I haven’t run since 2005!” Her son had seen the Lord ‘grow out’ his mom’s arms and legs as adjustments were made to her back. We also ministered the baptism of the Holy Spirit and saw her laying hands on her son and praying for him. Both were wiping away tears as the Lord moved. Glory to God!

Magnificent Vision at Graduation
Word of Faith Family Church, Springfield, Ohio, March 18 – Fo
urteen students graduated from our Healing Ministry School tonight. And two more came over from our Galloway school because they were unable to attend their own graduation night last evening.
We believe it was a night that all who were present will always remember. The presence of the Lord was so very strong. The worship caught us up into the heavenlies. The seriousness of the charge to heal the sick as Jesus commanded, was so real to the students and accepted by them all. As we imparted the anointing most fell out… Larry fell out for the first
time in his life. But of course it did not matter if they fell under the power or not: it was God’s service… He was working and He imparted into each one as He determined. All we did was flow with what He was doing. The impact can be seen in these photos.
As we were all lying or sitting on the floor under the power of God, Amanda Bruns had a vision. We tell it now as we recall she shared it with us all but she has promised to write it out exactly as she saw it, and if there are discrepancies we will adjust our account to accord with hers. She saw in a blaze of light the face of Jesus and He had the most magnificent smile and she saw Him touch each of us
on the head with His finger and a blue spark came from His finger and ran down everyone’s spine to their feet… At this point Debbie Border exclaimed, “That’s why my foot was burning!”… and she saw everyone encased and shining with this blue light over their whole body. Then she saw us with Jesus in light on top of the globe of the earth. Jesus opened a gate on top of the globe. We all went through this gate and out into all the world in the power that we were radiating and that He had just imparted to us. Amen.
We laid hands on all who came for healing and on those of our students who were not graduating.
It was a special, special night. During the afternoon the church received a call from a distraught husband who was asking if the church operated a healing ministry outside the church as his wife was in desperate need. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches (Revelation 3:22).

Graduation Galloway
March 17 – We had a small but powerful graduation class as several of our students were unable to come tonight. We were
however joined by Ron and Loretta Hammond, alumni from a previous Healing Ministry School of ours. It was great to have them with us. Ron & Loretta are on our Board of Directors.
During our worship time, the anointing was so strong and at one point LaVo
nne could not help giggling. She was receiving a vision of Jesus running towards her through a most luscious green forest and then He took her hand and she was running and playing and skipping and dancing with Him, like children do.
Loretta had a word for Charlissa arising out of the impartation. She also felt a huge impartation go into Tiffany. Tiffany asked for special prayer and we gathered round her. We also ministered to Candy.
All in all it was a powerful and intimate night of fellowship with the Lord and with each other.
