Day 26, 8/11/08
God at Work #1 - God blessed us with beautiful weather to walk in. We even had a light rain while the sun was shining bright.
God at Work #2 - Along our path down some beautiful country roads we came to a monument with historical information and as we began reading it a car with 2 elderly people stopped and wanted to take a picture of the information. We were able to share about our prayer walk. They asked to take a group picture of the walkers before moving to their next stop.
God at Work #3 - We got to talk to a lady returning to her property after sharing tomatoes with her neighbors. Ater talking with her we realized she received a flier about our prayer walk when we began handing out fliers announcing this event. She was amazed to see us walking her street and was excited.

Day 25, 8/10/08
God at Work #1 - Our walk today took as back some beautiful country roads. We ran into a man who had just been to the Sat Night campfire praise that one of our walkers hosts each week in her back yard. He made a comment that "this is what the church is supposed to be doing"....sharing the love of Jesus on the streets by taking church outside the building. We were encouraged by his words of affirmation.
God at Work #2 - We had a chance to walk along the Conestoga creek and felt the Lord prompting us to go put our feet in the water. The burn hazle caused discomfort for some so we asked the Lord to take the itching away from us. Soon after we were feeling fine.

Day 24, 8/4
God at Work #1 - We walked several times around a church that was our starting point for today. God had blessed us with a BEAUTIFUL sunset as we prayed over this church. Before we started, one of the youth asked God to show her an OWL on the walk today.
God at Work #2 - We ended our walk at a local veterans club. There sitting in the front yard was a HUGE tank used in battle. It reminded us of the importance of putting on our spiritual armor.
God at Work #3 - The street name where we finished is "OWL bridge road" so God did show our prayer walker on 'OWL'....maybe not in the form she expected. God has a sense of humor.

Day 23, 8/3
God at Work #1 - Several walkers recently participated in a different prayer walk around Lancaster Co. praying down the strongholds for a 'vow of silence' that the anabaptists had taken many years ago that carried over with them when they migrated from France to America . The 'vow of silence' included an agreement with the French to farm their land in exchange for their vow to not share their faith (evangelize).
As our prayer walkers began walking today from a Millersville church we found a ground marker/plack which talked about a Mennonite Evangelical church that previously occupied this site.
God a Work #2 - We had the opportunity to pray for a nearby resident that she would be healed and able to walk again. Her flag had an eagle on it.
God at Work #3 - We prayer walked around 3 churches we came to in our path today. Along the path was a site that one of the walkers felt we need to have concentrated prayer. After a fewe minutes a sign was found indicating it was a Masonic lodge.
God at Work #4 - One walker felt we needed to bring the walk to an end earlier than expected. As we returned back to our starting point, a minor motorcycle accident had just occurred and we were able to pray with the persons involved. Being shook up, the rider didn't feel comfortable riding the bike home. One of the walkers volunteered to take the bike to their house for them to pick up later. We shared the love of Jesus with them and they said they were very blessed by our being there at the right time.
