<title>Guest Speaker: Pastor John Putman</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>On <strong>Sunday, June 1</strong>, we are pleased to have Pastor John Putman as our preacher during the morning service.</p>

<p>From 1982 to 2004, John was senior pastor of the King's Church, Staines (near London Heathrow Airport). John left pastoral leadership to devote more time to missions and itinerant ministry. John and his wife, Rosemary, have a passion to support young leaders in emerging churches. They both hold pastor's credentials from Foursquare International and serve <a href="http://www.foursquaregb.org/churches/churches.html">Foursquare UK</a>. They make regular visits to Estonia and Romania. John's mission interests also involve annual visits to Nepal, Tibet. They are no strangers to the USA and particularly enjoy their visits to all their friends in Arizona.</p>]]></description>

<title>Cleansing Stream Ministries</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Do you want to grow spiritually? Do you want to rid yourself of the garbage that is keeping you from walking in freedom? Are you holding on to things from your past that won't allow you to live as a victorious Christian? If you can identify with any of these, then you should consider attending the Cleansing Stream Seminar offered at <a href="http://growingtogether.net">Grace Chapel</a>.</p>

<p>The mission of Cleansing Stream Ministries is to partner with pastors and churches in teaching and training leaders and maturing believers in personal cleansing, deliverance and spiritual warfare so they can be released to serve, minister and disciple others in the Body of Christ. </p>

<p>The in-depth discipleship consists of two parts. The seminar series and the retreat. The seminar series consists of ten weeks of teachings and ministry, laying the groundwork for the freedom. The retreat will be centered around worship and prayer for inner healing and the freedom.</p>

<p>Grace Chapel offers the seminar series in the Fall of each year. In 2008, registration will begin June 8 and end on August 13. The seminar will begin on Wednesday, September 17. The retreat is scheduled for November 14-15.</p>

<p>For more information, visit the <a href="http://www.azcleansingstream.com/">Arizona Cleansing Stream website</a> or contact Wade or Lynn Understiller at <a href="mailto:azcleansingstream@cox.net">azcleansingstream@cox.net</a>.</p>]]></description>
