On Sunday evening we gathered in the upper room of the Prayer House. After each attendee had been prayed-in, convocation began.  Praise,  Singing in the Spirit, Worship, Tongues & Interpretation continued for five days.

We realize some of you may be scratching your heads and saying, "Just what is Holy Convocation?" Well, from it's origin in The Old Testament, the Lord Himself ordained it as a time for His people to come apart from the world and its tensions, just to be present to Him. This meant setting aside schedules, jobs, responsibilities and other plans for the period appointed. Some references are found in the KJV, Exodus 12 and Leviticus 23.

Concerning The Holy Way, it was twenty five years ago exactly that the Lord gave a vision simultaneously to Fr. Stube and the Martin's to begin a yearly Holy Convocation for anyone "hungry" to come apart from all activity and busyness, just to be with Him.

It is a most wonderful time to worship Jesus, always looking to The Holy Spirit to lead us.  It is a time to share His love with others through exercising the gifts.(1Cor.14:26) It is a time to come to know Him in a new way; a time to hear His voice in the stirring times of silence. It is a time to be healed and to receive ministry, to find new freedom in the Spirit. It is genuinely a time of refreshment and renewal of faith.  It is a time of fun and fellowship.  Yes, we do enjoy delicious meals together. Break time also provides opportunity to get acquainted with newcomers, to rest or to play some sports, especially with the children. This year, we were especially blessed that three families took part. 

Finally, Holy Convocation builds unity like unto the Godhead, to the Glory of the Father! With this said, let's look at some Prayers, Teachings, Words of Wisdom, etc. that took place between  July 20 and  July 25, this year. 
 
 

 "This was our second convocation as a couple, and this year the addition of our baby, Jehudah. We enjoyed the discipline of silences. It was also particularly nice how each person came forth with a psalm, teaching or prophecy; also a relief that nobody rambled on. We were particularly blessed that several families took part."

**************************************************************************************** "An awesome first time experience in God's love. I can't imagine now, not being here in this "home"! All children of God united as "one;" family, loving, sharing in worship and praise together! The facilities and property are ideal for convocations." 
 

       If you've never visited us here at Bealeton, you'll be surprised when you do! Surely it is a perfect example of "God's Favor" to a ministry that seeks to keep Him #1 in every way!
       The grounds are spacious,  private and wood-like. The prayer house is an inviting place with sleeping quarters plus a very ample kitchen/dining area. The upper room or worship center is a lovely designed mega- room which is ideal for private or corporate worship.
       Then there is a wonderful barn adjacent to the prayer house, with the beauty of grazing sheep in the pasture. The interior of this building offers several rooms of comfortable sleeping arrangements. For very large gatherings, there is also a larger barn.
       A real sense of "family"happens here when the "saints" gather, with all pitching in on food costs and/or preparation, clean-up details and housekeeping. Also the need is vital to help occasionally with groundwork. 
      So here in beautiful Virginia close to Dulles airport, "Come," you will experience all of the above when you visit,  with the amenities of a huge fireplace in the kitchen/dining area and central air-conditioning.
       We look forward to meeting you, hopefully soon! 

Thank you so much for allowing us to join with you for a very special weekend and times in the Lord. Your love and blessings are truly a demonstration of Christ. We are confident it was a God appointed time that we came to visit and fellowship and are now waiting on God to see what is next. The Lord has taken something away from us in order to prepare me for something new. While it is very exciting, it also it an opportunity to further learn to trust on Him more completely. I don't yet know what God has in store but somehow I believe our paths will cross again. 
May God continue to bless and uphold you.

Warm greetings in the precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Thank you so much for your encouragement and the prophetic word. It is very uplifting and a comfort for us because we are going through trials and persecution. Let's keep praying for each other.

        I am very interested in your website.  Do you have any churches in the Los Angeles area (Indonesian or American) that are based on the pattern laid out by Fr. Stube in "According to the Pattern?"
        Friday the 16th, we had our monthly Malaysian Prayer Fellowship meeting at my house.  Once a month we gather to devote an evening to prayer for the Malay-Muslim World. Present at the meeting were two retired missionaries (Fr. Walter Hannum of the Episcopal Church and David Brougham).  Also present was Gracie Ginting, wife of Yohannes Ginting.  Somehow, during the fellowship time after the meeting, we got to talking about the work of Fr. Stube in Indonesia.  I had heard titbits about him in the past, but my curiosity was sparked by David's account of the miraculous signs and wonders that had accompanied Fr. Stube's work. 
         After the meeting I plugged Fr. Stube's name into Google on the internet and found your website.  Currently I have read most of "According to the Pattern."  I have been searching and just maybe I have found the answer.  I am most interested in your work and in your response.  I am hoping to be able to connect with a fellowship of Christians that is carrying out the pattern as laid of by Fr. Stube.
