I was reading this week in the book of Acts of Apostle Paul's vision. You will find it in Acts 16...
9 And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us.
10 And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord had called us for to preach the gospel unto them.
My prayer was immediately that God would give somebody that same vision concerning Montana. Bro. Metzger has invited us to bring the tent to Florence, Montana and preach a tent revival. After much prayer we have felt like we should endeavor to do it. We want people to join in with the Sun Valley church to worship, pray, witness and enjoy the presence of the Lord.
As it stands now we will have tent revival in Montana July 15-20 or 22. We are believing that God will reward the effort and give Sun Valley church a great revival. This is a great church with a determination to really be a witness, light and testimony to their community. They have a lively youth group and they are actively seeking revival. God has blessed them tremendously and I believe this tent revival will be a continuation of that blessing.
I have had people ask me, "You are going to take everything to Montana for one tent revival?" Yes, I know, it doesn't make much sense. It is going to be challenging physically, logistically and financially. But when has effective ministry ever been easy? When does God's work ever make sense to the human mind? I believe God is going to bless these human efforts in a mighty divine way.
I am asking God to add whole families to the kingdom of God and the Sun Valley church in this tent revival. I am asking God for dozens of people to experience God for the first time and for backsliders to be brought home. I am asking that people would be healed, saved and delivered from all manner of oppression, sin and bondage. I believe that God is going to do it!
We desire God's people to come and help us! I would love to saturate their area with prayer and put invitations and flyers in as many hands as possible. Bro. Metzger's church will be busy working to prepare for the revival but that week I would love to flood them with reinforcements. There are many souls in their area that need to hear the Gospel message and I believe that God's people can be an instrument to reach many of those souls.
This would be a great opportunity for a home missions trip with the young people of your church. It would also be a great way for a family to combine some hands on ministry with your vacation. Every where we go people are always talking about going to Montana. Now is the time to do it!
There are motels nearby in Lolo and Missoula and the Missoula airport is about 30 minutes away. A wide variety of rental cars are available at the airport. The church is between Lolo and Florence and the tent will be set up either at the church or in Florence.
It is absolutely beautiful country (After all this is Montana we are talking about!) Glacier National Park is about 170 miles, Yellowstone is about 300 miles and many beautiful places are right in the neighborhood. You will fall in love with the Metzger family and the people of the Sun Valley church. I guarantee it. They are beautiful as well!
I am excited about each revival scheduled this year. Whether in a church or under the tent I am expecting God to do great things in each revival. But I admit, I am especially excited about tent revival in Montana! Would you consider going to Montana to help the Sun Valley Church and Pastor Metzger in tent revival?

Would you pray about it? Is it possible that God will allow you to catch the vision? Come over into Macedonia (Montana) and help us.
Feel free to call or email me if you are interested in helping with this particular tent revival...
God Bless,
