Urgent Celebration Update
16 Jan 2013

It is time to break the jars! (John 12:3)
The tabernacle needs to be built!

Dear worshippers,

Alleluyah! We are in our seventh year and final year of Celebration for the Nations in Wales! Please forgive the lack of updates. We are working on one that will have a lot more news, but we just need to get this bulletin out for your prayer and action before you get the main one.

The Lord has led us to work particularly with two suppliers. Cascade will supply the worship tabernacle (marquee) and additional things like toilets, showers, flood lights, generators and dining tent. Cariad Canvas, a Christian company based in Wales (Cariad means love in Welsh), will supply smaller sleeping tents.

To engage them, so that they can start reserving our tents etc we need to pay them a deposit next week. Cascade are asking for 25% and Cariad for 15%. They will send us their final quotes at the end of this week, so we are not sure exactly how much we will need to pay, but we estimate it will be between £25,000 - £30,000.

We have about £7,500 in our account at the moment. We are in a time of intensive prayer, and we ask you to join us as you can. The Lord told us ‘the finance is in my house’ and ‘you need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised’ (Hebrews 10:36). We believe this is a promise for the whole of the Celebration.

We are coming to you as co-workers in Christ who are part of this worship intercession for the wells of living water to spring up again in Wales and the nations. We talked at the end of the last Celebration of storing up ‘jars’ of perfume to offer to the Lord, so that we, like Mary can bless Him. We asked you to consider putting money aside as you prayed and worshipped the Lord in preparation for this final Celebration in Wales, knowing that it was going to be very costly. Well, it is time to break the jars! Each one of us can bring our offering to Jesus. We anoint His feet, His tabernacle on earth.

If you have not been able to put money by, we still covet your prayers. Stand with us for the full deposits to be paid next week. Please give whatever you feel the Lord asking you to give.
