Healing Gate Ministries

Approximately 3 years ago I was awoken in the middle of the night by the audible voice of God!  The words that I heard were “I am taking my Church from Hibernation into Acceleration”.  I held those words in my spirit and thought on them many times, eventually producing a painting, which closely represented how those words felt to me.

"And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching." (Hebrews 10:25) Over the past seven years, I have had the privilege of ministering in many cities in S. Korea; in traditional Churches, at YWAM bases, in coffee shops, restaurants and Retreat Centres, but more recently I have had several invitations to visit ‘house churches’.  And the first three days of this trip were spent enjoying the Presence of Holy Spirit and one another in the house church setting. It is in these more intimate settings that we have the time and opportunity to listen to one another, to ask hard questions and to share more deeply.

June, 2011  My flights to South Korea have now become very routine to me, and as familiar as driving from Kelowna to Penticton!    I know the names of the Captains and the flight attendants and the seating arrangements and flight schedules by memory.  I know that if I choose a seat by an exit door to accommodate my height, I will be very cold, but on the upside I will have room to fully extend my legs.

Based in West Los Angeles California, is a vibrant. regional, multicultural Christian Community, with a heart to see believers and non-believers alike transformed into committed followers of Jesus Christ .  

When most Western Christians think of the Christian community in South Korea they immediately remember the name David Yonggi Cho, so well known for being the founding Pastor of Yoido Full Gospel Church in Seoul which is approximately made up of 800,000 thousand members. As well the reputation of many large churches ranging in size from 10,000 to 80,000 thousand members is now an integral part of the South Korean landscape. Of course the “Prayer Mountain” model is also well known in South Korea and continues to this day, as busloads of Koreans make a trek of prayer and fasting up to the Prayer Mountain locations on a regular basis interceding for their country.

Six years ago, I heard the Lord speak to me about S. Korea. (see details under prophecy) I understood that He would open some doors for me to minister there, but I wasn’t expecting that He would provide me with such competent translators, new friendships, an understanding and love of the culture, a digestive system that would thrive with Korean food, and so many people who would look out for my well-being!

The 'church' in the bible refers to, not a building, but a group of people sharing a common belief and worshipping together in unity. According to the Bible there is only one God, one faith, and one way to worship him, that is as set out in Holy Scripture. That united group is the one true church, who show their faith by the way they live their lives, in peace and love, love for God, for his word, for creation, and for fellow humans, including friends, family, strangers and even loving their enemies.
