Stikine Valley River Crossing Floodwaters

The Stikine River overflowed its banks many days ago at the bridge crossing. Please pray the floodwaters will abate in time for the week of June 17th-24th for preparations for the Stikine Valley River Crossing Gospel Music Festival-- also please pray the entire length of Highway 37 from Kitwanga north be open for travellers to attend this amazing celebration. As the snow pack is still melting, the timing of the river peaking and ebbing is crucial to the music festival's success and safety!
Willie and Grace Williams, the hosts-owners of the ranch where the festival is held have moved temporarily from the ranch into Dease Lake as floodwater is running across their ranch property.
Please pray for Willie and Grace no damage will occur to their ranch.
On Wednesday night my friend Heather Syms and I drove to the Stikine Bridge to view the flood firsthand--an amazing site--the waters rushing and very muddy carrying huge trees and debris. I am praying that since we now have the physical manifestation of floodwaters, the spiritual manifestation will follow in their path.
If you can imagine the grandeur and power of muddy river waters overflowing their banks, can you envisage and pray the higher ideal--the incredible beauty of God's living waters flowing from under His throne--overflowing from the tip of Northern BC down to the mouth of the Fraser River. YAY, GOD! It's coming!! Rivers of living waters! Pray for it--and believe for it!
In his great and abiding love,
God bless you!
Look to see you all at the ranch for the Fest!
