WHAT HAPPENED AT YOUR ARISE! CRY OUT! SITE?
How did God make His presence known at your site? Did He help you overcome an obstacle before the event? Was there a special atmosphere during Arise! Cry Out!? The Sunday afterwards, was the church abuzz in anticipation of what God was doing as a result of the time of prayer and fasting? How did your pastor help support and promote Arise! Cry Out!? We’d love to hear. Just hit “comment” and let us know.

CHANGING YOUR HEART:
Karen Isenhower, USA National Director for Moms In Touch International, wrote this after the Arise! Cry Out! Live-Event in October.
“To experience a preview of heaven, to be a part of something so simple, yet so powerful. ... I’m still wondering how best to describe it. Proclaiming, with the other country coordinators, ‘Worthy is the Lamb!’ was a highlight of my life. It was such a compelling picture of the beauty and unity of heaven, with Jesus being central to all. My heart was filled with indescribable joy in that moment of worship that included voices in sixteen different languages. Praise, confession, thanksgiving and intercession are now imprinted in my mind with a special force because of what I experienced in prayer with my international sisters. Somehow, our prayers transcended human language as Olga Petrova from Russia, Marianna Dubciak from Moldova and I prayed in our small huddle. There was an astounding sense of God’s presence and understanding, though Olga and Marianna prayed in Russian and I prayed in English. The three of us shared many tears, smiles and hugs. Every song, every transition, every moment was intensely riveting and powerful for me. Each element taking me closer into my precious Savior’s arms. What did God speak to my heart at Arise! Cry Out!? Through every moment He was saying to me, ‘I love you.’”
