United States

“The Spirit was moving through you to help us learn and grow in the Spirit and take this back to our churches.”

Our home base in North America is Minneapolis, Minnesota. Our ministries in the United States primarily consist of leading Spirit-led leader and labyrinth prayer workshops for church groups, and teaching intensive short-term courses at various seminaries for MDiv students, alumni, and continuing education participants.

What Leaders Are Saying

  • “Dear Tim, What a report! This has given wings to my prayers for you! It is deeply satisfying and inspiring to know that God answers my humble prayers—even when I feel so removed from what you are experiencing. But the Holy Spirit connects my heart with God’s, and God provides what you need to carry out his work as described here. May he also do this for the MIT students! Thank you for telling me about your upcoming schedules, too. Be strong in the power of God’s might!”

  • “It is always such a heartwarming feeling to read the newsletter of FHL Global ministry. I am very touched by your ministry and your love for Myanmar especially MIT and our Karen people. You are with them and become one with them. It is such a great blessing for our people. I will continue to pray for you and this ministry and also will participate in the prayer and fasting program on December 10. I have marked it on my calendar already. I will inform the chaplain team to inform others to join also. May God continue to bless you all, the ministry abundantly and use you greatly. Blessings”
