God's Eternal Purpose
What is God's eternal purpose? "...all of the nations you have made will come and worship before you, O Lord; they will bring glory to your name." (Psalm 86:9) There will be " people from every tribe and language and people and nation" worshipping before his throne. (Revelation 5:9) From scripture, we see that it is God's desire to reach out into the world with His message of hope and love and salvation.

HAITI (Passe Catabois) Anne-Marie & Rob Hulshizen
Just 710 miles from Florida, this past year four devastating storms and hurricanes caused chronic food shortages, starvation, and disease on the most impoverished nation in the Western Hemisphere. In a country where more than half the population subsists on less than a dollar a day, the unemployment rates have risen to over 80 percent. The weak and children are the ones who suffer. Anne-Marie is a doctor operating a small hospital/clinic in a rural area of Haiti. Rob is the jack-of-all-trades – contractor, counselor, educator, business manager and many more titles. There are approximately 150,000 people in this location. They serve out of deep affection, compassion and love for the Haitian people.

VIET NAM Global Prayer Ministries Online Charles Crane
After the Communist takeover in 1979, Christian churches were outlawed, destroyed and confiscated; forcing pastors to flee to the west. Those who stayed were perseuted, or jailed for their faith, and church was driven underground. In 1988, God sent a spiritual outpouring. The House Church Movement grew exponentitaly and leaders emerged despite the persecution. In December 2006, the Government granted Religious Freedom. Our vision is to identify the next generation of key spiritual leaders and have them ready and positioned to seize the moment.
"When asked how I would describe it, all I can think of is A MIRACLE OF MIRACLES. After 31 years of Religious Persecution under a Communist Government, the Vietnamese people are now able to gather openly to worship without the fear of being arrested and tortured. Today, thousands of churches are coming out of the underground with congregations of approximately 40-50 people in each house church. Reports are coming back of mass conversions in the thousands throughout the nation and whole villages in the mountainous areas are 100% Christian. Neighbours are winning neighbours in an seemingly unstoppable move of God while Governments in the neighbouring countries of Laos and Cambodia are extending an open door to the Vietnamese church."

As an outreach of the Ministries of Encouragement, The Barnabas House serves as a supplemental resource for the local churches and the Christian community in the Santa Clarita Valley. It is a gathering place for individuals and families to enjoy fellowship and grow a personal relationship with the Lord. We feel The Barnabas House fills a need in the Santa Clarita Valley for a facility where believers from different fellowships can meet throughout the week for the purpose of enhancing their walk with the Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Helping people walk with Jesus is the greatest gift we can give our fellow human beings. Art Dolder

Geroge and Margaret literally lost all their material wealth after their son was convicted of setting many arson fires. Their son, Paul, an advertising exectuive, caused many structures to be destroyed and several persons to die. This is a story of healing. God raised them up out of the ashes of despair and freed them to worship and serve Him.

Our MILLION MILE JOURNEY and website are funded from our personal resources. As we travel the world we are making contact with those who have a special love for reaching others with Christ's message of love and redemption. They may be part of an organized body or independent. Each one is encouraged to pray for one another even though they may be many miles apart. We also are encouraging others to participate with us and report what God is doing in the world.
A new "Prayer and Vision Trip" coming soon.
God has given us an assignment. We are to go where He sends us, encouraging and proclaiming the decrees of heaven, preparing the ground for the seed of the word of God. (Luke 10:1-12) This website is a record of the journey and encounters.
