    I pray, Lord you set up the RIGHT millions of prayer warriors to fast and pray globally and that you set up the RIGHT millions around the world to contact the RIGHT law enforcement and special authorities (police, Parliament, Judges etc) to stand and act against my specific trafficking situation and even where I am locally. I pray that the RIGHT FBI agents (no volunteers) SWAT, lawyers, advocates on my behalf to ACT in Jesus led spirit and report to the right people on my behalf about thr spiritual realm, satanism, my name, the ABUSERS that need to go to prison, and may they acknowledge and FIX thr fact they were trying to take my life. May I no longer be ignored and may the TRUTH come out on the tight radio stations. YouTube Channels, TV/Media/Reporters in Jesus’ name. The right people, millions of them will ACT RIGHT now and all through the week and to thr end of the.TRUTH pour forth. May I receive full justice from God against these abusers and may they get prison time immediately, no bail, plea bargains, let offs, pay offs, or shortened sentencing and expediented court trials/proceedings BEFORE Thanksgiving. I pray God will fulfill his word about the individuals who will be like Eli and his sons. And also that trafficking will now receive the death penalty. I pray the the excellent and right husband will come with wealth swiftly this week and advocate for me, love and protect me. Thank you for acting right now. In Jesus’ name. AMEN

    Hi Felicia

    Hope it’s OK to send this mail here, and I hope this email finds you all well and happy in the Lord. Shalom blessings from Townsville.

    A friend of mine a beautiful Christian woman, Judy Foote is leaving Wednesday to fly to Port Moresby, she is a midwife, meeting up with YWAM ship and also had planned to do some work up there in the community either side of her joining the YWAM ship.

    She received a text message today from her friend in Port Moresby who was providing her with some accommodation. Unfortunately the lady has had to cancel the arrangement because she had family arrive unexpectedly. Judy is now looking for other accommodation and I was wondering if you you knew anyone who might be able to assist her. Only for a couple of nights. Or if you could recommend somewhere suitable for her to stay. she isn’t quite where would be the best place to start and enquire.

    Love from us all here in Townsville. Can you believe how fast this last year has gone by?

    All the best for Christmas and the New Year from us here as well.

    Bronwyn Vaughan, Townsville Aglow Secretary.
