Bower, John - June 14, 2007 |
|
John Bower is the son of St. Louis CBMC Director Stan and Laura Bower of St. Louis, Missouri. He is part of a small group of mostly young businessmen in the Dallas area, called "The Retreat." In his own words, John Bower says that men of “The Retreat” are “… seeking to know Jesus and walk in raw, organic community. We seek to affect ‘the least of these’ [that Jesus talked about in Matthew 25:40] on a local, national, and international level. In January, 2007, 7 of were privileged to visit Haiti for a week-long mission trip. Then in March 2007, 3 of our men were invited back to document a revival. They witnessed a spiritual revolution - 40,000 Haitians praying through the night - 100,000 Haitians marching on the capital of Port-au-Prince – 1,900 Haitians giving their lives to Christ. All this in an island dedicated to darkness in voodoo! And now we are men on assignment, called by God to tell the Haitian Story. As the Haitians would say, ‘Jezi Ap Avanse’. (Jesus is Moving!)”
