To go deeper into worship and experience the Glory
of God’s presence! We believe that this conference
will affect our nation, the Church, and our families.
John Paul II told us as we began the third millennium, “The great mysti-
cal tradition of the Church…shows how prayer can progress, as a genuine
dialogue of love, to the point of rendering the person wholly possessed by
the Divine Beloved, vibrating at the Spirit's touch, resting filially within
the Father's heart.” Novo Millennio Ineunte, par 33.
“Our Christian communities must become genuine schools of prayer where
the meeting of Christ is not just expressed in imploring help, but also in
thanksgiving, praise, adoration, contemplation, listening and ardent devotion
until the heart truly falls in love.” NMI, par 33.
WOW is a direct response to John Paul II's call to prayer in Novo
Millennio Ineunte.
Each morning we will begin with intercession. Come to a new under-
standing on how to stand in the gap between God and for others.
Eucharistic celebration will follow. Workshops will help each of us go
deeper into worship including Dancing for the Lord, Evangelizing with
Signs and Wonders, Moving in the Prophetic Word, Healing Prayer and
Power in Praise. Each evening we will come together in worship until
the Glory of the Lord comes down in power on His people.
The Lord's hand is guiding this event for this time and place and His
people. Come expecting His power, His greatness, His wonders and His
love to be revealed. Come ready to praise and worship the Lord and to
experience His majesty that His glory will be revealed in you to trans-
form His world!
Come Holy Spirit, Come, Come!

church for 4 ½ years as full-time intercessory missionaries. In 2008 he began pioneer-

new, abundant life Jesus longs to give them, and help them to rest in the Almighty Father’s
love poured out through the Holy Spirit. In 1974, through the prayer for the Baptism
in the Holy Spirit, he experienced Jesus’ love in a powerful, personal way. Although he had made his
living as a guitarist and singer in nightclubs, he found that he “couldn’t sing those songs anymore,” and
instead, chose to use his musical gifts to glorify God and has lead worship in a variety of settings over the
years—masses, healing services, retreats, Christian coffee houses, and Catholic and Protestant conferences.
