BUSY WEEKS!. After seeing John Port and Larissa Cunkle become Mr and Mrs. Port. ( Woot! ) Pastor John and Pat Ward drove us on June 30^th to Collinsville, IL, for our last full tour presentation. So welcome and free to follow the Spirit we received many words from the Lord for many in the congregation. The next day we drove to Lancaster, OH. and had fun seeing Toy Story 3 in 3d. Then to Summersville PA, to minister but we felt like we were poured back into more. We helped with their community outreach penny carnival and spent time with Pastor David Shay, his family and the Church families. Jordan caught the biggest fish but Larissa's fish kept breaking the line. Four of us girls that Sunday had a prophetic painting for the church all involving water and refreshing. It was an amazing time of rest before heading to Microsoft. At the two shows several of our MC's and potentials were complimented over and over about how much they appreciated us.

Joseph, Hannah and Jeffrey were the only MC's from Oklahoma working the late tear down strike (fifteen hour day) along with 2 others out of the 30 who worked were called "all stars" because of the quality of their work and attitude. John and Jordan were told by their lead that he would recommend them to any boss because of the skills and knowledge and attitudes they had. Several attendees thought they were actual Microsoft sales team members. Laura's lead requested her back because her positive work ethic. Angela and our potential student Brett were told by their leads that they were their favorites because they did not complain and went above and beyond what they expected and were able to find creative ways to solve problems. Mr Bell told Jordan that he so appreciated MCOKC's servants spirit and how they were good examples to other MC's and attendees, of Christ and of EventForce. He was glad to have them be a part of EventForce. At WPC they tried a new job, Transportation Assistant and several of the MC's from Oklahoma worked it. The supervisor said that the Oklahoman workers were the best he had ever had-better than his employees.

OUR BUSY LAST WEEK! Students finish writing their class covenant before the signing luncheon, Jennifer Cunkle shot amazing class pictures, writing final curriculum evaluations, writing affirmations for the class, preparations for graduation and packing to go home. Saturday night is the official graduation ceremony. Sunday morning will be a time of commissioning and prayer where they will perform their graduation dance and Sunday night is the actual banquet followed at 7PM with the ring ceremony open to all.

Thank you so much for your prayer and support this year. We appreciated it so much and can not thank you enough and with many many tears we are saying goodbye but as Miss Barbara reminds us, the Lord has purpose for us as we return home.

Love Angela

Our MC's contributed in many areas at the multi-generational Gatekeepers Conference in KY, and made some more positive contacts for potential students from the five participating churches. We were told repeatedly that just being present encouraged everyone. They ministered on stage, helped with childcare, led the youth track, involved the youth in both a rhythm presentation Saturday night and prophetic painting.


Thank you for your prayers because each day, both coming and going, the weather report change and snow move further out of our traveling path.


We had our spring break and it was really awesome to be able to go home and see our families. It was especially nice as when we came back we left a few days later for Seattle. We were there for about two weeks and it was wonderful. We went for a Microsoft show and Generations Conference. They were both amazing. It was wonderful to be poured into at the Conference and then be able to pour it out at Microsoft. We were able to be back in time to see one of children's outreach do its spring finally. They were absolutely wonderful and we loved being able to see how hard they had worked on everything.

Right now we are hard at work on our various dances, rhythms, human videos and our personal testimonies. Our May tour and June/July fundraising plans are pretty much set. We ask prayers for wisdom, grace and fruitfulness. We have ministry stops in eight states, leaving April 28 and returning May 21.

Then the Kirkland Masters Commission is with us May 28– June 2, so we need host homes over Memorial Weekend for about 15 or more MC’s (call Larissa). They will minister May 29 in the Will Rogers Park, then on Sunday AM, and be here for our MCOKC tour “homecoming” presentation on Sunday eve, May 30. That Sunday night we can minister to them, and our local congregations can experience what our MC’s did on tour.


On June 3 we go with them to New Orleans to work a Microsoft Show. Our last trip is the first three weeks of July then home for our last week before graduation (Paul Doherty will be our speaker) on July 31 and August 1. (Plus, we have a wedding at the end of June!)


We have about four months left but we know how quickly that time will pass. We ask that you would pray that the Lord would protect us as we get ready for tour and ask that He would give us enabling grace to be able to do all that He asks of us.


God bless,

Angela and Jordan

  Hello from MCOKC. Here is an update on what has been happening the last few weeks of January:

We are now reading, “Understanding Your Personal Prophecy” by Gary Cake. This book is all about breaking down prophecies that have been given to you. It has been helpful to us already. We had Jordan Sandquist and Jeremiah Cole from Kentucky come up for a weekend. They prophesied over all of us and then we were able to minister to others. A couple of us got words confirming what the Lord was speaking to us.



We just completed our Spiritual gift and temperament (personality) tests. It is interesting to see the differences we all have, yet many of us share the same gifts and motivational tendencies. Dr. Richard Lineberry has trained us in the Wimber healing model and we were even able to use it by praying for several people.

These last few days we have not been able to have class due to the ice and snow that we have gotten. We all have a bit of cabin fever after being stuck inside for four days and we were more then ready to start classes again.

Right now we are preparing to go to Cincinnati at the end of the month for “The Kingdom Lavish Love Gatekeepers conference.” Once we get back from Cincinnati it will be March and we are only here for a week before our spring break. We're off to a Master's Commission conference and a Microsoft show in Seattle March 15-26.

Please continue to pray for us. Laura Straessle needs prayer for knee problems. Please ask the Lord to bless us financially so that we can go to Costa Rica this year. We would love to go and we know that if it is the Lord's will He will make a way.



Love and God bless,
Melissa and Angela

just to let you faithful viewers what we have been doing, we asked several people to write some things down, we combined them all and this is what we got... hope you are all being blessed, and are seeing evidence of the Lord living and moving in your lives.

We watched a video series called Search For Self-Worth. During this the Lord brought to light untouched areas in our hearts and minds and renew them. We also got a chance to learn and practice how to worship the Lord freely. Although we are diverse in our various instruments and gifts, yet we are unified in our love and worship to God. We had the privileged of participating in the annual Christmas Youth Talent Show. Which raised money for the youth missions trip to New Mexico this summer. Some danced, some sang, some watched but we all had a good time. Despite a blizzard and flight delays, everyone was able to get where they where headed and Ariana was even able to see the snow for the first time.

Now it is 2010 and we are back in Oklahoma ready for where the Lord is taking us. Having had a wonderful time with our families, we are all excited to jump back into the groove and start preparing for tour. Presently we are reading The Supernatural Power of a Transformed Mind by Bill Johnson. It is making us think outside of our old mindset; and building a desire in us to understand and experience God more. As always we are relying on the Holy Spirit to empower us to do what we are learning. Thank you for all you continual prayers for us!

Love Levi, Ariana and Angela

Thank You, God, for doing amazing things for MCOKC and the congregations. God is calling the men to be Godly and take greater leadership responsibility-including using their voices. We had a wonderful time serving at the Kaiser Public School Carnival right before leaving to work our first Micro Soft Conference, in L.A., where, we were able to build new friendships with other MC programs. Praise God, we were able to do very well and we received praise from other directors and the Microsoft management. After we came back from the show we had a few days of class, then a Thanksgiving party at the Cunkle's house. We had an amazing time, playing games, baking pies and being able to just have fun, before having a few days off for the Thanksgiving holidays. A couple students got the chance to go back home and spend some time with their families, while the rest stayed and enjoyed the holidays with their host families and friends here. This was Ariana's first Thanksgiving ever!


After our break we came back to class and discovered a change in atmosphere. God is taking us into deeper and more intense levels as we finish up the book Authority in Prayer by Dutch Sheets. He’s also expanding our outreaches. We had our Whiz Kids Christmas Concert/Party. It was a great time of getting to know the different families in the area and building relationships with them. The next night we went Christmas caroling with Christ Covenant Fellowship. We were able to visit different families from the church and spend time getting to know each other as we tried to follow Pastor Kerry from place to place. The next morning we went with Church at Edmond to talk and help some of Oklahoma City's homeless. Besides helping cloth and feed them, we were able to pray for them and show them that we cared. The next night we went to Lawton, OK, Riverside Indian School, to pass out presents and connect with these youth who have many needs. Pastor Dwight encouraged us to remember as we looked into the faces of the homeless and youth that our places could easily have been reversed, but for His grace to us and our families. This past Wednesday we were able to pray the prayer of Salvation with our Whiz Kids. There were around 35 kids and we praise the Lord that we were able to show them the Way.


Just one and a-half weeks away is our Christmas break. Thank you for the extra financial gifts we have received from you, for the lunches which some have brought to us, for our host homes and for your support and prayers. Please pray for Ariana who will not be able to return to Costa Rico for Christmas with her family, and for us to have safe travel and good relationships with family and friends. We are still changing but we hope they will see Christ in us and be encouraged. Merry Christmas to all!


Love, Levi, Laura and Angela

Thank you for your support and prayers. Lately we have been busy in both the churches and the outreaches, such as Trunk or Treat and the Kaiser School Carnival. Pastor John Ward has been teaching us out of Strengthening Yourself in the Lord by Bill Johnson, and Pastor Kerry Freeman has been teaching us out of The Practice of the Presence of God by Brother Lawrence. We've also been learning how to ask Dr. Lineberry hard questions in his class “Old Testament Survey.”

We were privileged to have Jerbarco Arnold, one of the Lead dancers from Christ Church Kirkland, come in to help in the choreography of our dances and human videos.

November 14th-20th we will be at our first Microsoft show of the year in Los Angeles, CA. Please pray a hedge of protection around each of us, and that the Father's love and joy be apparent in us.

May be blessings of the Lord be with you,

Jordan Marlowe

Greetings from MCOKC

      We are super excited for the new year and are already off to a great start. We have eight new students, two interns and two staff. We are looking forward to an incredible year of getting to know each other and growing in the Lord.  It is a joy getting to know our host families and becoming a part of their family. There was no hesitation in the release of spiritual gifts beginning with prayer and prophetic words for the students at the Induction service. The week after Induction we all went camping. This provided a good opportunity for growing relationally. There were some initial car problems, but we got there. We ate at Meers, the only restaurant in the U.S. where they raise their own beef and where they have HUGE burgers. We hiked, played Uno-crazy rule style, had campfires and got rained on, but that didn't stop us from enjoying each other and the members of Covenant Life Church. We saw: buffalo, deer, prairie dogs, a tarantula, long horn steers, wild turkeys and lizards. Pastor Dwight had fun catching four fish. We had a good time of bonding.

      We have already been involved in outreaches with 4 different churches and have been reading some great books and having discussions about them.  This last Friday we had a “Day of Encounter” where the Lord was able to move and break off spiritual obstacles, setting us free in areas of our lives. In preparation for this day we had Pastor Dwight Cunkle, Pastor John Ward and Dr. Richard Lineberry come in and talk about forgiveness, inner healing and deliverance. We also fasted and prayed over this day. The Lord was faithful.  We ask that you all pray for a wonderful year, for health and for a year filled with growth and victories in the Lord. 

Jordan Marlowe, with the help of Kendra Cunkle, is preparing a slide show from our Induction service and first few weeks.  It will be posted to our website by November 30th.
