Dear Friends,

Blessings to all you!! I wanted to give you a quick update as I’m preparing to leave on Tues, Sept 16. I had hoped to leave tomorrow, Monday, but have too many details yet to tend to. Also, tomorrow, I need to have some additional work done on the Glory Van to assure it is in optimum shape for another cross country run. I’m estimating around 12,000 miles before I return home. At this time, I’m looking at the probability of spending Thanksgiving in North Carolina with Josh at Ft Bragg, before heading back home. He is scheduled for deployment again next year and I’d really like to max out my time with my young handsome soldier son. I’m planning to drive through South Dakota this week and see my oldest son, Steven, and family and also my daughter, Anne, and family, and at least 8-9 of my grandchildren. It will be a grand time!!!

A special thanks to you who have emailed or sent words of encouragement, and included financial support for the trip. You put the wind in my sails. It is impossible to go and do without the generosity and kindness of those who blow upon the coals of prayer and intercession and send me on my way. I’m honored and humbled by your love and concern for me and our great nation. I want to assure you that the one who goes and those who stay at home are laborers together with mutual rewards for all. I realize that many of you travel with me vicariously and I would so love to be able to take you along. I’m hoping to keep good records and get some photos to include you as much as possible.

After the initial stumbling and bumbling around over to go or not to go, I have felt the increasing confidence of the Lord that HIS plans are being carried out and He will guide me safely to the northeast corner of Maine, down the eastern coast, and back home again. It is on HIS Faithfulness to me in the years past, that I can step out by faith and trust Him to do exceedingly abundantly above all I’ve asked or thought. It’s hard to explain, but when I finally finished loading the van, start it up, record my mileage, and drive off, I enter into a zone like a Holy Ghost jet stream that propels and compels me forward. I feel His Hand and I feel His Pleasure that I am willing to go and willing to trust Him. Recently someone prayed over me and saw an angelic fire tunnel all the way across the country. In these most turbulent of times, that is a great comfort.

I’m reprinting my itinerary again, so you can pray and travel with me. I know there are going to be many Divine appointments along the way. I still have some open dates, times, and flexibility.

Beloved friends, keep me in your heart and prayers. As the Lord leads you, call, email, and if you can lend a financial hand, it will be gratefully acknowledged. All mail and checks will be forwarded to me, or you can donate through paypal.com or thru credit/debit cards. I can also make my Bank of America account number available to you for a direct deposit and quicker accessibility. Just call or email me when you’re ready and able. Let it be your joy to give and mine to receive.

I've been battling some cold and lung congestion for about 2 weeks. Agree with me for my immune system to fight off any invaders and that I will be able to breathe freely and fully as I go. Keep speaking blessings of good health, wealth, and wisdom as I travel.

If any of you are interested in obtaining a small bottle of the gathered waters, let me know as well. We’ll work it out for you. I think it will be a significant way for all of us to participate and see into the unity of prayer, intent, and purpose as we continue to believe for restoration in our lives and in our country. Things are changing. I believe we have reached a critical mass of prayer and that we'll see many long awaiting changes come forth.

Today, the Lord reminded me of the book of Ruth. She gleaned in the corners of the fields … handfuls on purpose. I trust we too will glean in the four corners of America and find that our Boaz, our wonderful Lord, has been quietly watching us. As I prepare to step into the waters of the fourth corner in Eastport, ME, know you are truly with me as the Voice of Many Waters.

My love and admiration to the finest people in America. I’m sure of it.

Carla
