PUERTO RICOSydney Stair and Miguel Perez Work Together increating a model of cooperation in Puerto Rico forOthers to Follow Ambassadorial Apostle Miguel A. Pérez says he has beenworking alongside Puerto Rican Convening Apostle SydneyStair, building a strong relationship that will help lead the PuertoRican Coalition of Apostles. Stair comments on theirrelationship, "Apostle Miguel Perez has been doing greatkeeping in touch. We communicate on a weekly basis and Ikeep him informed of advancements we are making reachingout to key apostles on the island. The religious leaders on theisland know that we are here and what we are teaching and theyare inviting us to their massive gatherings. This was not so asrecent as five years ago." Apostle Kelly has made two trips to the island, conducting theinitial summit in February in the city of San Juan where 13apostles attended. Reaching an agreement to establish thePuerto Rican Coalition of Apostles under the conveningleadership of Apostle Sidney Stair, the next apostolic gatheringwith Apostle Kelly was held in April where even more apostlesjoined the ranks, determined to move forward with thecoalition. Stair and Perez are quickly establishing a model ofunity for other nations to follow. AUSTRALIAAustralian Coalition of Apostles and ProphetsExpanding to Other Nations Representing over 2,000 congregations all over Australia andsome 120 participating apostolic leaders, the AustralianCoalition of Apostles and Prophets (ACAP) hosted some 50Apostolic Leaders in their 2012 national gathering with ApostleKelly. Australia is one of the leading coalitions that, alongwith Canada, have pioneered apostolic strategies allowingnational coalitions to be formed. After seeds for the coalitionwere planted by Peter Wagner, Mark Pfeifer made several tripsto Australia to help formalize it. Convening Apostle forAustralia, John Macknamara, soon assumed responsibility tolead the coalition in 2010. Since then, apostles and prophetsfrom across the nation have been working together to see theirnation transformed. Here is the latest report from Macknamara:


"Chuck Pierce's Prophecy for Australia continues to be fulfilledTO THE LETTER! Our Intercessors Group have done intensespiritual warfare and made continuous declaration of Chucks'word over our nation. The greatest fires and the greatest floodsin Australia's history took place just as the word declared. Italso stated that "Australia will be a COVENANT KEEPINGNATION......" referring to Marriage Law. Just last week theNational House of Representatives voted down the MarriageEquality Bill (Gay Marriage) overwhelmingly 98 votes to 42!The bill which was presented in the Senate was alsooverwhelmingly defeated! In the same week the State ofTasmania tried to put a Bill through their Senate (againstFederal Marriage Law) and it was voted down by the majority.3 Gay Marriage Bills in one week ALL VOTED DOWN. THIS IS A GREAT VICTORY!! The first 3 predictions havecome to pass in order and to the letter! The next and finalprediction of Chucks' word is that Australia will experience AGLORY INVASION OF THE NATION!! I believe it hasalready begun. "I have been Interstate in Adelaide, Perth and Sydney in thepast three weeks and unusual miracles are breaking out in eachplace. In Adelaide a lady came forward who was due inhospital the next week for Open Heart Surgery on her Valvesand arteries' prayer for a creative miracle and a NEW HEART.We had a phone call from her the next week during MargaretCourts Victory Life International Conference. The doctors haddone final tests on her and were simply amazed anddumbfounded. All the previous damages to her heart werecompletely gone and her heart was absolutely perfect! Nooperation needed - an outstanding creative miracle! These arebecoming more common-place." Maybe the glory invasion in Australia has already begun! Welook forward to hearing more glorious reports from the landdown under. THE PHILIPPINESAustralian Delegation Visits the Philippines withRemarkable Results Australian Convening Apostle John Macknamara recentlyreported on the activities of an apostolic team from theAustralian Coalition of Apostles and Prophets (ACAP) thatrecently ministered in the Philippines. Macknamara write thefollowing:


"It is my great pleasure to report on an exceptional ApostolicMissions by ACAP member David Croker from Yass, NewSouth Wales. An apostolic team along with a number of othersfrom Australian paid a two-week visit as they have been doingeach year for several decades now. However, this particularPastors' Conference & Crusade was one with an incredibledifference! "Their mission to Dipolog City was championed by the Mayor,Deputy Mayor & Councilors of the City who are all Christians. David reports that the city is by far the cleanest he has everseen it in 30 years of ministry there! The Mayor, Deputy &Council Members have drafted a very clear 'BLUEPRINT FORCHURCH & CITY TRANSFORMATION (6 pages long andtoo detailed to include here!)' along with a City 'COVENANTSTATEMENT' which appears on the wall of every home inDipolog & reads as follows:

'We, the Multi-Sectoral leaders of Dipolog City, togetherwith our respective constituencies, in one accord, do hereby

bind ourselves to accept and fulfill God's call and destinyfor Dipolog City and the Dipolognons, to be His vessels,

light-bearers, releasers of Life and conduits of His Glory inour families, communities, the Province of Zamboanga delNorte, the Philippines and beyond. That, being groundedon our core value of being God-centered, we commit to be

zealous and faithful in pursuing personal intimacy withGod, Our Creator. That we shall actively & vigorously

work for the realization of the Development Roadmap ofDipolog; That to attain our VISION to become a peaceful,

progressive, self-reliant super-city, we acknowledge thewisdom of seeking God always in humility, and livingaccording to His Will; SOAR HIGHER DIPOLOG! Forged this 3rd day of December, 2011 at the Dipolog

Boulevard, Dipolog City, Philippines.' "Is it any wonder at all that the Team saw 3,420 first-timecommitments to Christ in just 11 days! Further to the above,the Deputy Mayor Roberto N. Pinsoy, once discovering thatDavid Croker had connections to the Australian Coalition ofApostles, expressed a very deep interest in connecting with us. Iinclude a few extracts from his email to me personally: 'Dear Ps. John, I have heard about the existence of the Coalition of Apostles& Prophets of which you are the Leader through PastorDavid Croker. He is indeed instrumental that our cries andprayers for an apostolic and prophetic connectivity has


been answered. It is with deep humility therefore that I, onbehalf of the Leaders of Dipolog City seeking the truetransformation of the church and the city, seek for yourcounsel and assistance as to how and where we could beginour quest for the fulfillment of God's call for our people,city and nation, understanding fully well that we need thefoundation of modern day apostles and prophets tosucceed. May this cry of our hearts merit your kindnessand understanding. To God be the Glory! Blessings, Robert PinsoyDeputy Mayor-Dipolog City' "Needless to say I have invited Roberto to the ICA InternationalConference in Dallas and also to our next Australian CoalitionMeeting! Could you all please cover David Croker and Myselfin Prayer for this wonderful Kingdom Opportunity!" It is our sincere hope that all of the members of the internationalbody will hold these coalitions up in prayer and cover theiractivities with earnest intercession. PAPUA NEW GUINEAFrom Australia, Contacts in Papua New GuineaEstablished After attending the ACAP national gathering in Canberra thispast year, Apostle Phil Spence who has significant influence inPapua New Guinea, wrote ICA and said, "It was great to bewith you at the ACAP annual gathering in Canberra, Australia,last week. I was re-energized, refocussed and uplifted by whatyou shared." Part of that refocusing was a vision for PapuaNew Guinea (PNG). Spence explains, "My parents went toPNG as missionaries with the Assemblies of God in 1956 andspent two decades there. I was 10 months old when they firstarrived there. My Dad planted dozens of churches and myMum ran schools and was involved in proof reading the PidginNew Testament. I have inherited great influence in the nation ofPNG from my parents who are greatly respected for the workthey did there." Since then Phil has been in the process of planning a series ofconferences in the provincial capitals for the next two years.The purpose of these conferences is to link together leaders andministries who are kingdom minded and to develop a coalition


across the country. We look forward to more updates fromApostle Phil over the next few months. CANADAThe First Transition and Succession in ICANational Coalitions Apostle Mel Mullen and the Canadian Coalition of Apostlescontinue to break new ground in their coalition. This past year,the convening responsibilities for the coalition were transferredfrom founder Mel Mullen to Apostle George Johnson. Thismarks the first time that such a transition has been made in theranks of coalition leaders. Apostle Mel Mullen was the first to conceive the idea of anational coalition. Along with Apostle Kelly, he traversed thecountry hosting gatherings of apostles in key cities. After acouple years of vision casting with hard work, the CanadianCoalition of Apostles was born. Along with Australia, theCanadian apostles represent the early adaptors and pioneers ofICA National Coalitions. The Canadian Coalition of Apostleshas continued unabated throughout the transition and continuesconnecting apostles across Canada. COSTA RICAFormer Professional Baseball Player Connecting toCosta Rica Former professional baseball player and ICA newcomer RamonGimenez is bringing to ICA some strong and establishedrelationships that have been built in Central America. One suchrelationship is with Yamil Jimenez from Costa Rica who isworking with Ramon to establish the Costa Rican Coalition ofApostles. The coalition continues to attract attention as togetherthey lay groundwork for the future. Like the work of Stair andPerez in Puerto Rico, the team of Gimenez and Jimenez arecreating an apostolic synergy as they work together for thenation of Costa Rica. NORWAY AND THAILANDNorwegian Jan-Aage Torp Works in His HomeNation and in Thailand


Jan-Aage Torp, who spent much of his childhood in Thailandand speaks fluent Thai, traveled to Thailand to experiment withthe concept of helping someone start a national coalition forThailand. While no coalition has been officially formed, thework continues as interested parties are contacted andinformation shared. In his home nation of Norway, Jan and hiswife Aina have been developing a nucleus of activity in hishome city of Oslo. Starting in an unlikely location, Jan-Aageexplains, "I started a new work on April 22nd in a pub indowntown Oslo, right between the Stock Exchange and theRed Light District. The pub owner is a Sikh from India, and heloves our church, even though he is still not born-again." Explaining the tremendous growth of gathering five-foldministers on a weekly basis Torp explains, "This summer, Godtold us to gather 5-fold ministers in Oslo, and we have nowgrown to 24 from our city alone." Now, apostolic leaders fromother European nations are inquiring about these gatheringswhile Jan and Aina explore options in forming a coalition ofapostles for their nation. Meanwhile, people are driving 4 or 5hours just to be prayed for by Jan-Aage and his team. Focusingon a transformational vision for his city he concludes, "We havealso started a Media Forum with some of the top media faces inNorway contributing, with the objectve of raising a trueChristian voice in the media of our secularized nation." Heeven received a letter from the Queen of Norwaycomplimenting him on a recent media event. MALAYSIA, SINGAPOREAND INDONESIAApostle Naomi Dowdy Laying Foundations inSoutheast Asia Apostle Naomi Dowdy continues to work in Malaysia andSingapore to create a National Coalition with Apostle IndriGautama serving as Convening Apostle of Indonesia. ApostleNaomi has created extended influence and connections in thesenations as much of her life has been given to serving the peopleof this region of the world. ZIMBABWESetbacks in Zimbabwe Delay the Creation of aNational Coalition


Ambassadorial Apostle Phil Nordin reports on a dire situation inZimbabwe. On a personal level, Nordin tells ICA thatConvening Apostle Ken Haskins experienced a fire thatdestroyed his entire office with all records, equipment andfurniture. He is requesting prayer for him, his family and staff. Nordin further explains that this event "has naturally taken hisattention away from the coalition at this time." But he hasencouraged Haskins "to take steps to establish the coalition asbest he can." As a nation, the situation in Zimbabwe isdesperate. According to Nordin, the United Nations has listedZimbabwe as the poorest nation on earth. He writes, "Policehave check-stops every 60 - 100 miles on the highway to findsome small infraction and bribe drivers for money. Unemployment is at an all-time high," says Nordin and "Moneyis scarce and makes travel difficult." Apostle Phil plans toreturn to Zimbabwe in April of 2013. COLOMBIAApostle Naomi Dowdy Sees Progress in Columbia Working with Columbian leaders for a number of years,Apostle Naomi Dowdy is in perfect position to serve as an ICAambassador to that nation. In a recent trip to Columbia, sheorchestrated a number of changes at the highest levels ofleadership in the burgeoning Colombian Coalition. Many ofthese leaders plan on coming to the United States to attend theICA International Conference. We welcome them into the ICAfamily and look forward to working with them. ZAMBIABriesmeister and Palo Create Early Momentum inZambia Andrew Briesmeister reports that Apostle George Palo ismoving ahead on the Zambia Coalition of Apostles. Zambiahas nine Provinces.

EQUADORAmbassadorial Apostle Miguel Perez Returns fromInitial Trip to Ecuador ICA continues to hear from apostles in other nations requestinginformation on establishing national coalitions in their homenations. Lori Holder recently said, "I have some apostles inGuayaquil, Ecuador very interested in forming a nationalcoalition of apostles. They want us to go there and help them inthe process." Miguel Perez, Ambassadorial Apostle to PuertoRico, recently met with 15 Ecuadorian apostles about startingtheir coalition. Please pray for wisdom and a clear directionfrom God as ICA moves forward in establishing coalitions ofapostles in these and other nations. UGANDABishop Okabe Implementing National Strategy forthe Ugandan Coalition of Apostles Ambassadorial Apostle John Macknamara reports that under theConvening Leadership of Bishop Patrick Okabe the Coalitionhad their second gathering in Kampala, Uganda in September. The first meeting of the Ugandan Coalition of Apostles was inheld in Entebbe last year with 20 apostolic leaders attending. Bishop Okabe reported that over 100 apostles attended the latestmeeting with many more planning to connect in the future. Okabe writes, "It is wonderful to see the Lord gathering leadersin to the Ugandan Coalition of Apostles. We are building anational apostolic coalition. We have held a meeting in Entebbewith several leaders from Kampala and Entebbe. We have alsoheld another meeting in Eastern Uganda. We plan to have oneagain in Kampala. As a national convener for apostoliccoalition in Uganda, it is my desire to connect with moreapostles countrywide." Okabe's team of leaders has embarked on forming regional ICAcoalitions throughout Uganda. The first Regional Meeting washeld for Eastern Uganda in Mbale Town. They are makingarrangements to hold another ICA meeting with apostolicleaders in Northern Uganda, Western Uganda then return toKampala. Concerning the future Bishop Okabe states, "Nextyear in 2013, we plan to hold the National conference. I haveeven had calls to have ICA set up in Kenya, Tanzania andRwanda. But I am more focused on making it strong in Ugandafirst." It sounds like his strategy is working!


SOLOMON ISLANDSApostle Kluane Spake Targets SocialTransformation as a Purpose for the Coalition ofApostles in the Solomon Islands Ambassadorial Apostle Kluane Spake recently appointedBelani Tekulu as ICA Convener of the Solomon Islands. Shehas instructed him concerning ICA National Coalitions functionand released him to build the coalition. Spake summarizes theeconomic and cultural challenges that people in the SolomonIslands face citing issues like the following:

Urban centers, including the capital city of Honiara isrelatively undeveloped with hardly any paved roads,sidewalks, or major industries.

Abuse of women is a huge problem with 69% of thecitizens involved in continual domestic violence andviolation of common women's rights.

Education is limited for young people who roam thestreets and highly addicted to the narcotic effects of thebetel nut which is ingested by chewing it.

Naturally, with the above issues, there is high poverty,crime rates, teen pregnancies, dropout rates, illiteracy(69.4% - the worst in the Pacific!), infant mortality (4 outof 10 die before age two!), malnutrition, among otherdebilitating social issues.

Apostle Kluane is using her influence and the voice of theburgeoning coalition of apostles in the Solomon Islands toaddress these social issues with great success. Together, theseleaders have created extensive and detailed strategies to addressand improve each of these areas. Spake reports progress, "Mostof these same pastors now report that they are working in somesort of revenue producing idea. Several now have stores; onehas developed a community farm where the proceeds go intothe church savings account for emergencies. One has a marketfor agriculture goods. One went from subsistence fishing to a


fishing business and he also grows huge vegetables. One hasnow opened 26 Christian schools in the Province of Malaita.Another has several small income businesses. One Honiaramember started a cab business and they now they have 26 cabs.The pastors have begun to consider their wives as more equalpartners. Many have their wives partnering in their business." These are huge accomplishments considering the considerableweight of culture that resists these changes. Accompanies by Pastor LaVonne Brown, Apostle Kluaneconvened the first meeting of the Solomon Islands Coalition ofApostles with 30 attendees, most of them relating with ApostleBelani from with the city of Honiaria and from outlyingislands. One of the challenges that the coalition faced was localchurch leaders resisting the idea because it was not adenominational meeting. But Spake was glad to report that"after the first day, everyone was totally on board with theidea! Quite an amazing turnaround!" The Coalition paperworkis now completed and ready to be authorized by ICA. ETHIOPIAResistance to the Apostolic Message in Ethiopia There has been considerable backlash following thecommissioning of Apostle Daniel Makonen in Ethiopia. Ambassadorial Apostle Phil Nordin explains, "The organizedchurch (Coptic) in Ethiopia rose up and wrote articles aboutMakonen and his 'apostolic authority' in the local papers -denouncing him. It created a significant stir." Then in Marchof this year, Nordin reports, "An Ethiopian Professor from oneof the colleges in the United States wrote a lengthy paper aboutme and the apostolic movement. He then travelled to Ethiopiato gather churches and present the paper. The paper waspublished to denounce apostles today and any apostolicfunction they may have. The paper listed a number of lies aboutme, Peter Wagner and Daniel Makonen." Attempting to set the record straight, Nordin has beeninterviewed a number of times in Ethiopia and spoke at somenational conferences explaining the truth. He concludes, "I didnot sense any noticeable damage in my influence there from anyof the ministries I relate to - but it has made it considerably moredifficult for Daniel to establish a coalition at this time." Wemust make sure that specific prayers are offered up for ApostleMakonen, Phil Nordin and the other apostolic leaders inEthiopia.
