Nick is on twitter / Multiplication.

It's great being on twitter...Day by day & week by week updates for your prayer support. Thanks for praying for us.

Also my new book, only book actually!!! 3-5 books a week are selling! Multiplication; inspiration and tools for church planting. Not the most popular title on the Christian market for books, but probably the most needed...The greatest long term evangelistic method under Heaven is the planting of new churches!!

Palmerston North / Taupo / Whangarei / Kaikohe

It was great catching up with the team at Vision Church Palmerston North. Dale & Rachael are doing a fantastic job. We were able to speak in the first evening service. A couple of people recommitted themselves to God. It is great to see the church steadily progressing & growing.

The following weekend (19th - 22nd June) we drove to Vision Church Whangarei & Kaikohe. We live in such a picture - postcard country...beautiful. It was the first time Karen & I have been with Paul & Sharon Buick. They began the church 2 years ago. They are an example of hard work + faith = a church planted. They have a very committed & top leadership team. We spoke at their evening service, again God moved & miracles happened.

The morning service was in Kaikohe with Michael & Raewyn Tohu. It was the rebanding of Vision Church Kaikohe! What a fantastic morning. The place was full, recommittments & healings. The whole congregation stayed for lunch and was fed a full meal...amazing!!! They spend weeks beforehand replacing the ceiling & other areas, replacing doors & painting the whole building!!! It's a great building with nearly 2 acres of land...well done Kaikohe!! Michael & Raewyn are legends...watch this space!!!

The buicks and the Tohus are strategizing to plant in many other areas! I felt a very strong conviction to that as they joined together a very powerful synergy would take place & the North would relize a ongoing & sustainable harvest. Very exciting. Again watch this space...

We go back to Taupo this weekend. It's Neville Kings ordination service at 4pm Saturday 27th June. Then Back to South City Church Hamilton with Barry & Pam Sanders.

Our aim is to partner with churches, Pastors & leadership teams to see their church shift & move forward. Also everytime we speak we are believing for salvations, recommittments & signs, wonders & miracles. Please pray for us... Walking in Eph. 3:20-21 is fun and challenging!! Moving in the Spirit is an exciting adventure with God.

INSPIRE Conference 23rd - 26th July is all happening!! Big enough to Inspire, small enough to connect with God & others. For DVD & details Click onto; www.eastside.apo.org.nz Inspire Conference.

June July update - INSPIRE CONFERENCE

The last 2 weeks have been great catching up with leaders from all over NZ. We had our National Leadership Team Tour (Acts Churches NZ) that covered Dunedin, Christchurch, Wellington, Auckland & ended in Rotorua, where we also had our annual Acts Churches NZ council meetings.

During the weekends Karen & I spoke in Westport & Reefton. 31st May. Bart & Rachael are doing a fantastic job. They minister to over 2% of the population of Westport!...isn't that great. Bart was ordained on the Sunday night. In fact I have a video that you can view if it all goes well!!! The place was packed,standing room only!! Then on the 7th June we were in Vision Church Palmerston North, with Dale & Rachael. They had their first Sunday night 5.30LIVE service. The weekend went sooooo well. It was fun!





On the 14th June we are off to Taupo, Inspire Church with Neville & Gail. We always enjoy being with them & their church. Neville gets ordained on the 27th of June. So we will be back in Taupo again then.

On the 16th June Karen & I are in Te Awamutu for an Elders dinner. We are looking forward to catching up with them in this relaxed environment.

On the weekend of the 21st June Karen & I are in Kaikohe for the branding of the their church; Vision Church Kaikohe!!!Doesn't that sound cool! It will be great to catch up with Mike & Raewyn Tohu and their team. We will also be in Vision Church Whangarei, with Paul & Sharon Buick!!! I am soo looking forward to seeing them all and being able to inspire & impart something of God!! Everywhere we go we see people saved & healed & ministered too...what a priviledge it is!!!

On Sunday 28th June we are in South City Hamilton with Barry & Pam Sanders. It will be fun!!! I haven't been there for ages so we are looking forward with anticipation to see what God will do!!!

The weekend of the 5th July we are at Eastside Hamilton.

The 10th - 12th July I am taking a mens camp in Mangaweka with Gordon & Myra Collins. Well Myra won't be at the camp!!! But Gordon, Jesus & I will be there!!!

Then it's off to Christchurch for my mums 80th birthday!! She is now in a home - Avonview. Yip you guessed it, it's by the Avon River!!! Opposite Kerrs Reach Rowing club for those who know ChCh. Mum is very happy there. It will be good to see her & our Christchurch family.

INSPIRE CONFERENCE!!! This is going to go off!!! 23rd - 26th July. The theme is Supernatural!!! My dream for this conference is that it will be "big enough to inspire and small enough to significantly connect with others!" This is hosted by Eastside - Sheridyn & Jan; guests include; yours truely as well as Martin Steel (Akd), Wayne & Libby Huirua (Akd), Don Lake (Akd) plus many others... This is another gathering point for Vision Church Leaders.We have a special lounge just for you to make it easy to relax together. It's going to be a fantastic time of connection with God, other friends & leaders. Supernatural!!! It will be a conference with a difference!!! Lot's of fun & prayer & praise & worship & laying on of hands & of course food!!!

Please pray for us! We need to know God's power!!! Everywhere we go we are believing for salvations & for God to move & impart something supernatural! Our aim is to serve the local church! I am still absolutely convinced it is God's plan A!!! By the way if you want to support us in a practical way feel free to email me at nick@apo.org.nz or call me on my cell phone 021 483 777 for specific details. Thanks for taking the time to read this...
