Dear friends and partners,  

Greetings to you with great joy! It’s time again to share our annual ministry report with all of our partners, to rejoice over the year of victories, and to marvel at God’s goodness!

 "Take courage and be bold! God is with us."

 That was the charge God gave us at the end of last year.  Like many of you have expressed about your lives, it seemed like everything was on the line this past year. And, honestly, it was a big faith step at that moment of our lives just to continue on; yes, on reflection, it was perhaps the biggest step we have ever taken.

 But, as we said then, and still believe today, never has it been more evident to us that together we carry the relevant, now message of the Gospel of the Kingdom – the good news that is health to His Body and hope to the world.

So, like Joshua and Caleb, we stepped out even further to defy all odds and do what He is opening the way for us to do in every sphere of influence. The Spirit of God said it most powerfully in one of our meetings this past July…

"If I can reach one brother, one sister, one mother, one father, one daughter, or one son, that won’t die of disease because of what I do, it’s worth any price to me… any price."

Beloved friends and co-laborers, if we could summarize 2011, it would have to be… God did it! God did it!

By His Grace, here is your 2011 Year-end Partner Report:

• We tripled the major events that our ministry hosted this year.
• We traveled to teach more than ever before.
• We doubled in partners and in the amount of seed you’ve sown.
• We expanded and remodeled our ministry headquarters.
• We welcomed Michelle’s mom, Marilyn Oliver, to our ministry team and our home.
• We exceeded the tithe in our support of other ministries. We are a tithing, giving ministry.
• We completely renovated our internet structure and video production abilities.
• We witnessed increase in signs, wonders, and miracles in faith, finances, fitness, and families.

 And, by His great hand, the dream of global reach became a reality. We now have ministry partners in Canada, Australia, and Europe!

Starting in January, we stepped right back out to minister helps and healing in several important meetings in Florida. Traveling as helps with other established ministries, we learn so many valuable lessons, grow in wisdom, and sow great seed for our future.

By April, we packed up the sound equipment, test kits and teaching packets, Doc’s exam table and treatment tools, all our resource materials and presentation aids, and loaded them securely into the new ministry van and trailer  - all of which you all prepared and provided – and we headed into a year of non-stop ministry!

God’s power to heal and the manifest presence of God blessed us as He opened doors to speak this past year. Our Pastors have taught us that the greatest gift we have to offer you is the revelation that the Lord gives us. The year of 2011 afforded us the extreme honor of delivering The Word and of seeing lives transformed in greater measure than ever before. We are grateful and humbled by the increase in magnitude and multitude of signs, wonders, and miracles.

In 2011, we received an invitation to speak nationally with The Gennao Group Inspirational Life Coaches. That is pronounced "Gen Now" as in "Inspirational Life Coaching for Generation Now!" We were a featured speaker at two of Gennao’s 2011 "The Outrageously Good Life" motivational events. God was with us powerfully and caused more doors to be opened for us in the year ahead.

We came to love the beautiful people at Divine Destiny Church, in Indiana, Pennsylvania as we ministered a powerful 5-day series of "A Wealth of Health" Hosted by Pastors Drs. Scot and Tammie Pifer, we witnessed some amazing transformations, healings from disease, reconciliation of marriages, dear ones reunited with their purpose and passion for God, and so much more! 

Another way we are greatly expanding our reach is through technology advancements. The Joshua Groups – our life and wellness coaching groups – are going strong! We have three dynamic groups of Mountain Takers from all across the U.S. and Canada!  Every month, more people are joining us for wellness coaching. Immersed in God’s Word on life, health, and relationships – they just keep getting "better, better, better than ever before!" And, 2012 will be our best year yet!

In other areas of technology growth, we celebrated over Thanksgiving with the grand-opening of The Premiere Online Nutrition and Wellness Resource at www.thepictureofhealth.com! The Picture of Health is the educational resource expression of Hands for the Harvest ministry. This giant step forward made many of our teaching, audios, videos, and books available to the worldwide marketplace. We cannot be everywhere at once physically, but with technology, we can be global in an instant! And that is exactly what God’s plan is for this ministry… ’til the whole world hears!   

Toward that target… beginning in 2012, we gladly announce that Hands for the Harvest will expand our reach even further by offering social media management, web design, and video editing services to outside clients. We have been sowing these services into other ministries for the past couple of years and now have release to make these services available to others. We are after all… Hands for the Harvest! This will be one more very powerful way we can be a "hand" to other harvesters in going global with The Gospel!  "Go into all the world!" is the commission!

So, you can see, even in these difficult times, when it might be easy to feel pressed on every side, the Lord sustains and gives the increase. He is faithful to complete the good work He began and… God is with us. 

There is simply too much to tell of His Goodness in just a few pages. As an expression of our thanks, we have produced a video which contains some of the powerful teaching on our vital connection, Spirit, Soul, and Body.  This video gives witness to the abundant fruit and revelation that the Lord released last year – made possible in part by your prayers, partnership, and giving.

The video is available at no charge upon request by DVD, is also on our website, or, if you already receive our email newsletters, you will receive a link to the video in your next email. If you haven’t gotten on that list yet, we’d love for you to do so. We won’t bug you, but we do let the good news out more frequently by email! Just visit either website listed on the first page and get plugged in!

In closing, we always want to express just how much you are loved by God and by us. We thank God for each of you and we pray diligently for your protection, purpose, and prosperity in Him.

We know from many of your letters and emails that 2011 has been challenging for nearly every person and family. In the natural, there have been many tough times. But… in Christ, we have been made extraordinary and have been equipped for the supernatural. He will not leave us nor forsake us. Your best days are right ahead.

2012 will be your year of refreshing. It’s your year for reforming and reestablishing the places previously laid waste, for recovery of what the locust has eaten. 2012 is the year for restoration of relationships. Because…

2012 is the year for Kingdom government to rule, in our hearts, in our homes, in the work of our hands, in our bodies – the Temple of God, and in our nations.

Let the House of God come to order! We have mountains to conquer in 2012!

It’s time, Brothers and Sisters. It’s time for the reign of God!

Wholly devoted,

 Michelle M. Pearson                                     Dr. Ray Pearson

 

Full fair be the feet of him that telleth, and preacheth peace on hills,

of him that telleth good (tidings), of him that preacheth health,

and saith, Zion, thy God shall reign.

(How beautiful on the mountains, be the feet of him who telleth, and preacheth peace, of him who telleth good news, of him who preacheth deliverance, or salvation, and saith, Zion, thy God reigneth.) Isaiah 52:7 (WYC)
