Supporting the Luis Palau Association in its efforts to create a living legacy, Palau Alliance Ministries exists to identify, affirm, and equip evangelists uniquely called in the specific areas of:
Last month ABC-TV ran a story describing how in Portland, Oregon some 500 churches are serving the city in partnership with the city’s civic leaders. The movement was spearheaded by the Palau Association as part of our Season of Service (SOS) efforts to mobilize the faith community to share the love of Christ in both word and deed. As you know SOS is a component of our evangelistic festivals demonstrating the power of collaboration. Reporter Dan Harris was fascinated that Portland’s evangelicals and the city’s liberal politicians were working together to meet numerous specific needs in the community. Here’s the link to the story:

Let’s keep praying that our working together as evangelists and evangelistic ministries will result in sustainable Gospel movements in cities around the world as we lift up the name of Jesus and proclaim His Good News.

Walking On Water Friends,
The world premiere of our latest film Promised Land was held on January 1st 2012 in Ashdod, Israel to a 99% Jewish crowd. The theater was packed out and the mayor came as a special guest. He had watched the movie prior and loved it. Todd and Renae were almost in tears as everyone came up to them afterwards to thank them. Please see the photos attached.
Please be praying for the next four screenings over the next 5 days in Israel.
The Orange County Premiere will be on February 3rd and the San Diego premiere will be on February 4th.

Thank you for your prayers and financial support of our two festivals in Brazil. God moved in a powerful way and many lives were transformed!
On November 18, we proclaimed the Gospel in Fortaleza. The leadership of the church that invited us (Central Baptist Church) challenged their cell groups to invite their unsaved friends to the festival. The event was held in the church’s open aired tent. There were more than 4,000 people in attendance. The place was buzzing with excitement as the crowd waited for Jaci Velasquez and Salvador to perform. When Mike took the stage he immediately connected with the audience and gave a clear presentation of the Gospel in Portuguese. Many responded to the call to action. Central Baptist is already working hard to ensure that every person who made a commitment to Christ is being followed up with by a cell group leader.
The next festival took place the following night in João Pessoa. We partnered with the City of Life Church to make the outreach possible. The event was held close to the city’s center on one of its most popular beachfronts. The reason for the location was to strategically take the hope of the Gospel into the heart of the city. More than 8,000 people attended the event. Salvador and Jaci Velasquez again thrilled the crowd and set the stage for Mike to proclaim the Gospel. Many responded to the call to accept Jesus Christ. Local leaders told us after the event that there had never been a mass evangelistic outreach in their city before. City of Life Church is working hard this week to follow up with the decision makers.
We thank the Lord for the opportunities He gave us in Brazil, many being “firsts” for us. This was our first Portuguese speaking event (a long time dream of Mike & Crystal’s). It was also our first time to be a part of an outreach hosted by one local church.
Our next evangelistic outreach takes place in March 2012 in Matagalpa, Nicaragua. Please pray for this event. It will be a one-day festival featuring musical artists Tercer Cielo, Raza For Christ, Miss Tani and more. Please join with us in asking the Lord to – even now – begin working in the lives of the people in Matagalpa. Ask Him to soften hearts and draw people to the festival.

This past week I was invited to speak at a huge event in New England called Overtime. Even though many gave their lives to Jesus, I feel that every time I’m in front of people speaking, that I minister out of my weakness.
When Moses objected to God at the burning bush, that he was a clumsy speaker, God did not disagree with him. The Lord did not say “Not true, Moses, I’ve heard you speak and you inspire me! You’re going places as a preacher!” God said “I will be with your mouth and teach you what you are to speak” (EX 4:12).
Be faithful with what God has called you to do.

Mario D’Ortenzio, founder of Death2Life Revolution, recently appeared on the TV show “LA Ink” and boldly proclaimed the truth of the gospel. It’s a touching story involving his whole family. View the video below to see the whole story.
This is Church
Evangelists, musicians, pastors and stunt dudes come together to give inner-city Portland a Day in the Park. On a sunny Labor Day in Portland, Oregon, the grounds of Lents Park were transformed into an open-air village of inflatable jump houses, plywood skate ramps and tents of food and activities. Music varying from freestyle hip hop
to gospel filled the air as local and visiting Christian artists joined the Luis Palau Association’s Next Generation Alliance, Save the City Records and several area churches to host Day in the Park, a free event for Portland’s inner-city community.
“Our heart is really to incorporate all facets and come together as a community,” said Tray Michaels, one of the event’s organizers and an associate pastor at Southeast Portland’s Revolution Foursquare Church. “We really wanted to put on an event where we could get out into the community, shake hands and get to know our neighbors.”
Revolution Foursquare, under the guidance of Lead Pastor Alpha Hayward, began performing park outreaches with its youth ministry over seven years ago. Through collaboration with other ministries, the event has grown into an annual full-day festival featuring a growing repertoire of well-known Christian artists and new attractions such as BMX and skate demonstrations. “It’s an honor to be able to do something like this in the neighborhood you meet in every week,” said Hayward. “It’s definitely a different dynamic when you can see the people you’re reaching out to the next day at the grocery store or the gas station.”
Vic Murphy and John Andrus of Action Sports Outreach, 
together with skateboarding pro Tim Byrne and team members from SkateChurch Portland, performed air-defying stunts throughout the day. Murphy concluded each show by sharing his testimony and proclaiming the Gospel to the crowds of delighted adults and children.
“Our main goal is proclamation evangelism,” said the BMX rider, who has taken his characteristic mix of stunts and evangelism across the world. “Whether it’s big or small…we just want to serve and partner with others to help them reach people for Christ.” Byrne summed up the event in a single word: Community. “People are drawn to this and they don’t even know why,” he says. “It’s the idea of what the Church is—Capital C. This is Church.”
This year, Save the City Records brought nationally-known artists Group 1 Crew and Byron “Mr. Talkbox” Chambers to perform at the event. When he learned about Revolution Foursquare’s park outreaches, Derek Hoiem, 
president of the burgeoning record label, decided to come alongside the effort and help it grow. “It was really a big science experiment,” said Hoiem. “Our own cities have become our mission fields. We go where the people are.”
The collaborators expressed a hope that this community-based outreach model would become the norm among churches. “That’s one of our visions—to get churches to do it in their own neighborhoods,” said Michaels. “We really want other people to catch this vision, learn how to relate to their community and go outside the box.”
This weekend Steve Wingfield is at Bristol Motor Speedway as his team puts on an extraordinary event adjacent to the “fastest half-mile” track in the NASCAR circuit. The opening event last night featured an interview with 3 Christian NASCAR drivers, the music group Sidewalk Prophets and Steve as well. (Steve was also invited to do the invocation for last night’s race.) He’ll also be joined by NGA/Livin it member Vic Murphy and his BMX bike!
