We greet you in the wonderful name of Jesus.

We spent most of the months of March and April outside of the United States—in Australia, Canada and Finland. We had a wonderful conference in Helsinki, Finland. When we stood up to minister on the first night, the power of God fell on us both instantaneously. We sensed the tangible hunger and openness of the people, the power of God hit us both, and we were instantly drunk in the Spirit! What wonderful things that God can do in our midst when we are in one accord with open hearts!

We have found the Finnish people to be very precious, very committed to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and very generous toward the extension of the kingdom of God. Our Finnish partners have been such a great blessing to us—they have helped us to fund crusades in Egypt, England, Holland, and Bulgaria.

We are looking forward to our graduation week of the River Bible Institute Class of 2004. Mike Francen has a “Regions Beyond” conference every year and this year we asked him to conduct his conference at The River during our graduation week. “Regions Beyond” will run from Sunday night, May 9th, to Thursday night, May 13th, with Mike, Pastor Rodney, Paula White, and Brother R.W. Schambach. Reinhard Bonnke is our commencement speaker on Friday night, May 14th. If you feel called to world evangelism—don’t miss this conference!

Also, as you make your summer plans, don’t forget to include a trip to Florida for Summer Campmeeting 2004! Pastor Rodney will be ministering on everything he has learned on “Knowing the Person of the Holy Spirit” over the last 24 years of ministry. Winter Campmeeting on the anointing was totally awesome! Come expecting great things this summer!

Well, as always, we want to tell you that we love and appreciate you. Thank you for your generous and consistent financial support and thank you for your love and prayers. Remember that as you put God first in your life, the blessing of the Lord will make you truly rich, and He will add no sorrow with it (Proverbs 10:22).

God bless you all abundantly.

Yours for Revival and the Harvest,

Drs. Rodney and Adonica Howard-Browne
