PRAYER UPDATES
From Gail Stockamp
Dear Praying Friends,
I have so much to report after a wonderful week of God's power and love revealed to the masses! However, since a picture says a thousand words, I will start by sending you a beautiful video recapping the past week. Simply click here to enjoy the images of God's Word being proclaimed, His name glorified and people coming to Him!
Continue to pray for those whose faces you see in the crowds. He is indeed still at work!
Thank you for your faithfulness,
Gail Stockamp
Dear Family In Christ,
I was able to catch up with my dear friend Andrew Palau following this amazing week of ministry in New York City. Please take a minute to watch this video greeting with words of thanks and encouragement!
Be amazed with me at all God is doing! This is really just the beginning as He continues to use those committed to Him in new and mighty ways.

One of my favorite verses in the Bible, my life verse, is Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him, and he will make your paths straight.” Notice it’s to trust Him with ALL your heart in ALL your ways and HE WILL (not maybe) make your paths (plural) straight.

Dear Praying Friends,
Thank you to your fervent prayers, we have lots to praise God for and to continue lifting up before His throne!
The past two weekends Staten Island believers have reached out to their communities in Jesus’ name! May 16th at Midland Beach Park, 750 families enjoyed a fun day with food, activities, music, and the Gospel. May 23rd at Stapleton Park, 6 churches and the Salvation Army joined together to bridge the gap between the churches and their community! 100’s of families came to enjoy the afternoon and hear the Good News. With momentum on Staten Island going strong after the 4 festivals this past month, local churches are already planning more outreaches to their community!
Stories of Hope, Women’s Dinner on June 1st is quickly approaching. 3 weeks ago only 2 tables were hosted, now all 100 tables are filled- and there is a waiting list. 1000 women will attend and hear the Gospel with “Stories of Hope!"
Counselor training is well underway with over 1500 Christians trained and ready to help those who want to receive Christ at any festival event! You can be equipped to share your faith too. Check out Festivalfriend.com.
Add June 7th to your calendar of events. Bridgeport CT will be having a festival there with Luis. To see more of the exciting events that are coming up visit to nycityfest.org.
Keep Luis in prayer as he moves (temporarily) to NY this week!
The media and PR have begun publicizing Luis and Cityfest. Praise God for the people being reach through these methods. Pray everyone in NYC has an opportunity to attend at least one event to hear about The Good News in the City.
Lift up the upcoming women’s luncheon in CT, this Thursday, May 28th, where God willing 400 women will hear Jesus’ name.
This weekend, May 28, 29, 30th, an outreach called AWAKEN will take place in Queens and Manhattan. Through music and the Word with Phil Wickham, Mike Doyle and Andrew Palau, people will once again have the opportunity to hear the Good News!
Similar to how we begged God to provide the women for the women’s dinner on June 1st (a seemingly impossible task), please ask God to provide table hosts and guests who need to know Jesus for the June 9th Business & Civic Leaders Breakfast. This is a unique opportunity for people to invite co-workers and friends to hear the Gospel.
Lots of great things going on! Keep praying and fasting as the work intensifies and the enemy doesn’t like it! Pray for the team’s protection and health, and for their families while they’re apart. Ask God to work wonders in the lives of people in and around NYC this month!
Praying in a NY minute,
Gail Stockamp
Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will be faithful to bring it to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. Phil 1:6
We’re praising God for many answered prayers as we continue to prepare and get equipped for NY CityServe & CityFest! There are many, many events already taking place and still being planned to serve the people and proclaim God’s truth. The event that will surely capture the attention of the city will be the Festival with Luis on July 11th in Central Park!!
Happy New Year! We are anointed and appointed for this time in history to share the Good News of Jesus! In spite of being a wealthy nation, we are also spiritually depraved and in need of a Savior… Jesus is the only solution! The Palau team is humbled, yet equipped to bring the gospel to NYC and beyond. Your prayers are coveted and getting more on board to pray is vital!
The people who walk in darkness will see a great light. For those who live in a land of deep darkness a light will shine… For a child is born to us, a son is given to us. The government will rest on His shoulders and He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace… Isaiah 9:2-7
Our Mighty God is a Promise Keeper! In Jeremiah 33, He promises restoration to the Isrealites: “I will bring health and healing . . . let them enjoy abundant peace and security. I will rebuild. I will cleanse. I will forgive all of their sins and rebellion. Then this city will bring me renown, joy, praise and honor before all nations on earth that hear of all the good things I do for it; and they will be in awe and will tremble at the abundant prosperity and peace I provide for it.” This is a prayer we can pray for NYC!!

In 1857, God began a great revival in Manhattan through a man named Jeremiah Lamphier. Today, we pray that God will re-dig the wells of salvation and revival that began in Manhattan, spurring our entire nation on to faith in Jesus.

John 13:34 says: “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you
must love one another. By this, all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one
another.” Such love is revolutionary!
Let our love bring unbelievers to Christ and keep believers strong and unified by following His
example of love. Let’s express His love by bringing the body of Jesus together in unity. Let’s tap
into the power we have of the Holy Spirit in us!
