Dear Intercessors and Friends,
ICL would like to wish each of you a Happy and Blessed New Year!
As we mentioned in our last ICL Newsletter, we had the wonderful opportunity during the Christmas season to do outreach in the San Diego area in the following ways:
Returned to the gay and lesbian community ICL served for 3 ½ years. We give thanks that a pastor of Highest Quest Fellowship partnered with us. (L-R: Jodie, undisclosed, Pastor Artemis, Kathy, and undisclosed)
Outreach to the inner city poor. We give thanks that Calvary Temple Assembly of God Church in Hillcrest donated food and clothing. 
(L-R: Jodie, Corey, Crystal, Russell & Kathy)
Crystal was just out of jail and received gifts donated for her daughters.
Donated food given by Calvary Temple Assembly of God San Diego and delivered by ICL to the family.
We are grateful to the Lord for a glorious time sharing the love of Christ with these wonderful people during the season of Christmas! It was our great joy to return to people to whom we had previously served.
ICL IS MOVING TO MUMBAI, INDIA ON FEBRUARY 1st!
Please joyously note that this is ICL's last month in the United States. This time is filled with last-minute preparations, team training in the Healing Rooms, and meeting's with local intercessory groups who are kind enough and willing to pray over us. Additionally, the Joseph Company, Christian businessmen and women under the umbrella of the IHOP, will be praying over us as well.
Our entire team is fasting and praying during this week of January 9th. The focus of this fast is Luke 24:49: that the presence and power of the Holy Spirit would be upon us. We need a lavish anointing of our Lord in establishing the Healing Rooms and serving the poor and the body of Christ in India and Africa. We need a spirit of unity among all those with whom we will serve and co-labor.
In addition to the above, we would like to ask you to pray specifically for the following needs:
1. To receive all of our Team's Passports returned to us with the India, Mozambique, and Uganda VISA's stamped with the correct arrival dates before the end of January!
2. ICL's quarterly need for $2,500.00 to sustain this outreach. These funds are the only remaining funds needed for this first half of our mission into India!
3. For each member of the India team to be filled with joy and peace in believing that we have been called by God for "such a time as this" as we make our final preparations!
4. Protection for the health of each team member during this winter season, and as we make the transition into the Indian culture.
Thank you for your continued love, compassionate support and fervent prayers which avail much!
