As an experienced fire arm person I must admit some of the techniques of shooting seemed a little frightening ha ha ha! I wonder if any passing birds experienced there last flight!!!! Video up links are great MT, we have been spreading the word. Later must go have to rope a grizzly bear.

Watch out streets of salford we are coming back!!
Shooting guns were great! Contrary to look of it we all actually hit the targets

Oodles of love n stuff from all the Kavanaghs. We've been missing you so much - the place is so quiet without you. As for the Rodeo & Gunslinging - I can see distinct possibilities for their inclusion in the Offering Time and Call to Action Slots! I prefer a sword myself (Zorro). We knew you guys were going to have a real 'blast' over there - now we have documentary evidence of it! Drive safely and we look forward to having you back with us soon. Every blessing, Martin, Carol & The Kids xxx PS Kiss the USA soil for me, M.

MT - you're doing a great job keeping us up to date - well done!!
Loads of fun... MK, that 'blast' comment was ooohhhh bad!

Guns Guns Guns why are women carrying Guns? Its bad enough we have to clothe them and feed them and some good guys even house them but giving them access to Guns is a crime. What if they realise that they dont need us men for the above mentioned items? They can use this freedom against us. Give it to the americans to arm their women infect the world's status quo. (secretly you go girl). By the way Patricia, Dayo says hi and he is sending you the baby since you are gone gun crazy. Annie your army days are over there is a new drill instructor in town. miss you much. ( i expect gifts)

... save the Queen, right? Keep up the fun, and enlarge your vision!! We love you all (Matt)
Wow! who knew we had some gunslingers amongst us, and you all look so sweet and innocent. (Note to self, don't get on the wrong side of any of the the good the bad and the ugly.... You can figure out who you are..) We love seeing and hearing from you all and miss you over here. Ps bring us back some of those BIG Sandwiches. (Van) You guys make us laugh!! I can feel the ache in my back-side looking at the horse/bull riding. I hope those animals were seriously tranquilized though... It was great to hear Pastor Julie at Inspire tonight... it is the same Spirit indeed + great mobile phone coverage! England will never be the same again when you guys return

HI Dayo, John, Martin & Johannsons!!! So great to hear from you!! Im taking care of your families and friends. We arent allowed to say the T word (Taiwo) otherwise patricia laughs and cries at the same time. but We are having fun. Wishing you were here! Our vision is truly enlarging. John, Annie is so funny!!! She does this imitation of her Jewish grandma. I have literally wanted to fall on the ground laughing. She walked up to the bull as her Jewish grandma. We all laughed so hard. Feeling refreshed as we laugh and learn. God is so good! Everyone should do this trip at least once.

You are supposed to be reading and studying 24/7 not touring the US of A. Have fun until the clock strikes midnite.I bet Tayo cant wait to see u. The kids thot the pictures looked cooool. Safe journey back

To MY new favorite Manchester United- Thank you so much for your presentation. I came into the meeting not expecting a whole lot for myself....I had the thought this would be a worthy cause to donate to, but nothing more. I was blown away by the simple testimonies I heard and actual direction and confirmation on some things I had been pushing to the back of my head...Things I thought could not have been from God but are!!! Wayne and Michael- I appreciate you taking the time to talk with me. You answered so many questions, and opened up so many more...Sometimes even when we think we have a pulse on how others view what is going on with the world, our views are really only a reflection of our surroundings. The answer to both our countries problems (and the world's) is Christ. Thank you for coming and REawakening me to that. Safe travels and God Bless........and just cause I've always wanted to say it but never had a reason to...God Save the Queen!
#20 - Martin K - home, soon Lowry - February 23, 2007 at 05:28 PM
Dear All, you'll soon be packing up and coming home. What a phenomenal relief that will be. The place is in chaos (only joking). Have a great final few days and enjoy a restful flight home. We're off to Dave King's City Lights Ministry 15th Anniversary at the Lowry at 7.30. Best go trim my mustache. Do I look like Buffalo Bill then? God Bless all, it will indeed be so lovely to have you all back soon. See you Sunday for your amazing testimonies (no weapons allowed).

#23 - Matt & Van - Home - February 24, 2007 at 09:45 AM

hi, everybody - I am looking back at the fun you all had. It was wonderful to have you all here. You are very missed. I am looking forward to seeing you in England. I love all of the comments about guns. The video is gorgeous. Michael you are a genius ! How are the love birds doing ? Julie says you are all busy as bees now getting ready for Spring Thing. Are you enjoying Tony Cooke ? I miss having the house full of people and laughing and going, going, going. Also having my precious daughter-in-law here all of the time - getting ready for the morning meetings with her sharing my mirror. You are all doing a wonderful work for God's Kingdom. Keep it up. We are doing our best to hold the fort here at the SCHQ. Love, Mary in the USA
