Greetings from your sister churches in London, Sydney and New Delhi! Elena & I have been gone from Los Angeles for exactly one month, as we participated in the “Movement-changing” European, Austral-China and South Asia Missions Conferences! Each provided several highlights! At the European Missions Conference, the Great Gatsby Kingdom Banquet was a blast!
The Great Gatsby theme for the European Missions
Conference (EMC) Kingdom Banquet fired up the
key leaders of the European World Sector
(above) and all of the EMC Delegates!
At the Austral-China Missions Conference, the sending out of Crouching Tiger #2 was so moving!
China is the most populous nation of the
world with 1.4 billion lost souls!
The Chinese Churches are called “Crouching
Tiger” #1, #2, #3, etc!
For Elena & me, the Crown of Thorns Council Meeting on November 10-13th in New Delhi, and the 33 baptisms on Sunday, November 17th at the South Asian Missions Conference, also in New Delhi, will be remembered when we all get to Heaven! And to God be all the glory!
The Crown of Thorns Council visited the Taj Mahal!
On Sunday night, November 17th, Ashwin – the son
of Raja & Debs Rajan – became the 33rd
baptism of the day in New Delhi!
MCKEANS’ MISSIONARY JOURNEYS
London
After sending out the last Good News Email on October 21st, Elena & I packed our bags for London to attend the 2019 European Missions Conference (EMC) – RADICAL!
The 2019 EMC was indeed RADICAL!
On Tuesday, October 22nd, we were warmly greeted in London at 2:00PM by Kolbe & Rebecca Gray and Michael Williamson!
The McKeans were graciously greeted at the
Heathrow Airport by Michael Williamson
and Kolbe & Rebecca Gray!
The rains during the EMC did not dampen
any of the delegates’ zeal!
That night, we so enjoyed a delicious Italian dinner with the entire Williamson Family – Michael, Michele, Michael Adrian and Mia!
“Grandma Elena” always remembers
to bring candy for Michael
Adrian and Mia!
Wednesday was a time of preparation for Elena & me. That evening at 5:00PM, we met with Kolbe & Rebecca Gray – the London West Region Leaders, who were so excited about the upcoming birth of “Little Keeva!”
“Grandma Elena” gave her favorite children’s
book to Kolbe & Rebecca for “Keeva!”
Then that night at 7:00PM, we met at the London Ritz for the Speakers Dinner, which was the first formal event of the EMC!
The Speakers Dinner was a “black tie affair!”
Dustin & Amanda Miller of Denver (center) and
Jacob & Courtney Beas of San Francisco
came “dressed to the nines!”
Ola & Denise Kukoyi gallantly serve as
London’s Shepherding Couple!
Refreshed from victories over Satan in Kiev, Oleg Sirotkin – the Eurasian World Sector Leader – preached one of his firmest and most candid lessons on RADICAL FAITH! His three points were: 1) See The Invisible, 2) Build The Impossible, and 3) Love The Unlovable!
The Speakers Dinner!
Oleg delivered a very sobering lesson
entitled, RADICAL FAITH!
He shared about the challenges in Kiev this year from false brothers, as well as the recent victories in the past week with 2 restorations and 1 baptism! He confessed the sin of sentimentality and challenged all to hold their members accountable to “live out the standard of the Bible” by “asking the tough questions!” In closing, he preached, “Radical faith is one that comes from God sending us through fires that produce radical repentance, radical plans and radical results!” (1 Peter 1:6-7)
During the Speakers Dinner, Michael “lifted up”
all of the disciples originally from Portland,
Oregon – the birthplace of God’s
SoldOut Movement!
Thursday morning, October 24th was the exciting Church Builders Workshop! All of the events were held at Porchester Hall, where the London Church meets once a month for their All Congregational Services! At that time, the Prayer War Room – or as London improvised – the “Upper Room” was opened for prayer!
Jeremy & Amy Ciaramella of Phoenix climbed the
stairs to open the “Upper Prayer Room!”
Each disciple that prayed in the Upper Room, first
wrote out a prayer request on a “post it”
and placed it on the wall for others
to pray for as well!
Michael Williamson blew it out in his lesson RADICAL BOLDNESS at the Church Builders Workshop!
The glorious Church Builders Workshop
was attended by most of the
visiting EMC Delegates!
Rebecca (and Kolbe) gave a terrific
Welcome even though Keeva’s
due date was the day before!
Michael pleaded for every disciple to radically
increase their boldness!
Participating in the EMC were Fred & Virginia
Speckman of NYC, whose Kingdom dream
is to return to Kathmandu and become
the Shepherding Couple!
Then we broke up into Men’s and Women’s Programs! In the Men’s Program, Frank Simelane of Birmingham preached on a RADICAL EXAMPLE! He had a terrific example as he was the only full-time person while the Birmingham (England) Church grew from 11 to 27 in two years!
At the Men’s Program, Paul Busari stirred the
brothers’ souls with his invigorating
song leading!
Frank’s RADICAL EXAMPLE in Birmingham
convicted all of the brothers!
Elena was the main speaker for the Women’s Program on the same theme of RADICAL EXAMPLE!
Elena was very touched by Michele’s
introduction before she spoke!
Short charges were given in the Men’s and Women’s Programs after the speech RADICAL EXAMPLE on the topic: The Seven Essentials Of A Radical Leader! Speakers for the Men’s Program were: Kolbe Gray, Luca Di Beo of Kiev, Anthony Olmos of Paris, Tomiwa Safe-Adewumi soon to be in Amsterdam, Kaspar Tambaur of Stockholm, Dustin Miller of Denver, and Jacob Beas of San Francisco!
Bringing fresh insights from the Scriptures,
Kaspar preached on Radical Devotion!
The dynamic speakers for the Women’s Program included: Christine Alamu of Birmingham, Vienne Safe-Adewumi, Cassidy Olmos, Rebecca Gray, Amanda Miller, Courtney Beas and Michele Williamson!
Amanda preached very firmly on the
topic – Radical Boldness!
Michele has lived out her class on
Radical Health & Fitness!
Thursday evening was the First General Session, where the Williamsons gave a rousing Welcome!
The EMC First General Session!
Elena & I were very fired up to share GOOD NEWS FROM AROUND THE WORLD!
Away from the crowd, Kip readied himself
for the GOOD NEWS Presentation!
To introduce THE GOOD NEWS, I read off the 12 Church Plantings in the 12th Year of God’s SoldOut Movement!
1) Auckland, New Zealand
2) Lima, Peru
3) Davao, Philippines
4) Kathmandu, Nepal
5) Phnom Penh, Cambodia
6) Apia, Samoa
7) Yangon, Myanmar
8) Johannesburg, South Africa
9) Crouching Tiger #2
OPERATION EAGLE
10) Atlanta, Georgia
11) New Haven, Connecticut
12) Indianapolis, Indiana
(Though Amsterdam was sent out at the EMC, their Inaugural Service is planned for January 19, 2020!)
There was so much “good news” from all six
populated continents, that the McKeans had
difficult decisions on what to share!
Then, Luca Di Beo of Kiev – now the number two man in the Eurasian World Sector – powerfully delivered a sermon entitled, RADICAL EVANGELISM! After he finished, Michael leaned over to me and said, “That man deserves to be appointed an Evangelist!”
Luca captivated the EMC audience with his
powerful yet “upbeat” presentation
of the Scriptures!
On Friday morning, October 25th was the Second General Session! Two major addresses were given: RADICAL DISCIPLING and RADICAL LOYALTY by Kolbe and Anthony respectively!
Kolbe shared humbly that as a younger disciple,
he disliked RADICAL DISCIPLING!
Anthony Olmos of Paris spoke on one of his
strengths – RADICAL LOYALTY!
Then to close out the morning, charges were given by couples: Radical Kingdom Dating by Jeremy & Amy was perhaps the most needed admonition! So encouragingly, they dated completely purely for five years!
The Ciaramellas, the Williamsons, the Safe-Adewumis
and the Beas delivered amazing short charges
entitled, Partners In The Gospel!
To keep somewhat fit, Elena & I try to take an hour afternoon walk daily! On our Friday walk, we spotted a flock of wild parakeets that live in Kensington Garden Park! Elena – a little nervous – reached out to one!
At first, Elena was “a little” apprehensive to hold
out her hand to the wild parakeets!
Then, she made friends!
Anthony & Cassidy became “grandchildren in the
faith” to Kip & Elena when they all worked
together in the City of Angels
Church South Region!
Friday evening was the Third General Session that focused on Campus Ministry!
Kevin & Sandra Lackenn-Toto led the Paris Church
for several months, as the Olmoses
waited for their visas!
Jacob gave a “sermon of sermons” as he preached his heart out on RADICAL CAMPUS MINISTRY!
To close out one of the best sermons ever on
CAMPUS MINISTRY, Jacob donned his cap,
turn it backward, and put on a backpack to
show that at 44 years old, he was still
ready to hit the campus!
Following were short lessons on various aspects of campus ministry! Standouts were RADICAL GRADES by Victoria Apanishile – once a UCL student, who after becoming a Christian shared that her grades skyrocketed! As well, Kwaku Sarkodie of San Francisco inspirationally preached from Acts 13 that converting people not only changes them, but changes you as Saul became Paul after converting the proconsul of Cyprus!
Victoria shared that after she became a disciple,
her grades skyrocketed!
On Saturday morning, October 26th, we began with the MERCY Presentation for the Fourth General Session! The guest speaker was Orin Lewis, who founded ACLT (African, Caribbean, Leukemia Trust) Charity to find “ethnic matches” for organ transplants after his son Daniel contacted Leukemia and could not find suitable matching donors!
Winston Churchill’s quote, “Keep calm and carry on”
was spoken to the British during World War 2!
SoldOut Movement Disciples should “keep
calm” in our world war against Satan!
Orin Lewis said to the MERCY Ambassadors,
“Many talk it. How many walk it? You guys
walk it! You are the truth!”
The fired up EMC MERCY Ambassadors!
This was followed by the CR Graduation overseen by Oliver & Eugenie Greenwood!
Nayomie Ajaji – a London Intern – was so
jubilant when she received her CR
Graduation Certificate!
Then I was privileged to address the EMC with the speech, RADICAL MOVEMENT!
Kip preached on building a RADICAL MOVEMENT
in every nation in this generation!
Menno Zoutendijk – from the Netherlands and on
the Amsterdam Mission Team – coordinated
all of the AV needs for the EMC!
Though it was pouring down rain, everyone was filled with “great expectations” for the Great Gatsby Kingdom Banquet! The invitation said: “A Black Tie Affair – 1920’s Dress Code Required!” What a night of celebrating the European World Sector!
Tomiwa & Vienne – the Amsterdam Mission
Team Leaders – welcomed all to the
evenings’ festivities with a dance!
The Portland / Eugene Table!
Tomáš & Danka Takáč – originally from Košice,
Slovakia – are key members of the
Amsterdam Mission Team!
Rene & Anita Vermaat were the first mission
team members to move to Amsterdam!
At the EMC, Jezie Beas (left), Kaiyah Miller
(center), and Mia Williamson became
“forever Kingdom friends!”
Jennifer Haynes of LA (left) and Sandy Lunde of
Phoenix have been “forever Kingdom
friends” since 2003 when they met
in the early days of the
Portland Church!
To cap off the evening, there was a terrific Talent Show and Dance Party!
Frank Simelane proved to be a man of many talents!
Jonathan Ho – a Queen Mary College Student –
sang the theme song RADICAL!
The evenings’ very cool hosts –
Michael & Michele!
Sunday morning, October 27th at 9:00AM was the England vs The World Football (Soccer) Match!
The England vs The World Football Match was
a thriller and eventually won by…
Since Porchester Hall was booked that morning, we started our Fifth General Session – Sunday Worship – at 3:15PM! Michael & Michele welcomed the almost 400 in attendance! Then came the International Prayer in 14 languages: English, French, German, Polish, Russian, Korean, Spanish, Portuguese, Romanian, Dutch, Swedish, Slovakian, Indonesian and Papiamento! So inspirational was the Flag Ceremony of the European Countries! As well, the American Flag was presented as a thanks for all of the resources – disciples and finances – given for the evangelization of Europe!
America’s flag – carried by Michael Adrian – was first,
as a huge “thank you” to the Americans who
planted the church and continue to help
support missions in Europe!
The EMC Flag Presentation!
Since The World Soccer Team defeated England in the Annual EMC Football Match 3-2, Tolsin Adesigbin, the England Team Captain presented the Kingdom Cup to Scott Lunde, The World Team Captain; Kevin Lackenn-Toto, The World Team Coach; and Ryan Hill, the MVP!
The World Football Team edged England 3 – 2!
Ryan Hill (right) of LA was the MVP
for the Football Match!
After a fellowship break, Communion was brilliantly presided over by the dating couple – Luke Snow & Frankie Sutherland of London! In particular, Frankie was completely vulnerable about her sinful past and her joy in finding her purpose!
Luke & Frankie have a very pure and
inspirational dating relationship!
Then it was a treat to have Dima Serafonov – the Moscow Lead Evangelist – give the Contribution Charge!
Dima (right) preaches in Russia, where it is
against the law to “proselytize!”
Then Tomiwa – the charismatic Amsterdam Mission Team Leader – delivered the keynote address, RADICAL!
Tomiwa was given the honor to preach
the keynote address – RADICAL!
Afterward came the restoration of Jennifer, and the baptisms of Maya, Matthew and Kwabena! So with the place membership of Ann Catrine Arneson from Stockholm earlier in the service, London had five additions on Sunday!
Rebecca and Jen Watkins warmly welcomed
Ann Catrine to the London Church Family!
Following came perhaps the ultimate highlight of the weekend – the Amsterdam Mission Team Send Off!
Globes and a “national-colored” orange cake
(made by Krista Ochieng) were presented
to the Amsterdam Mission Team!
The Amsterdam Mission Team is RADICAL!
In keeping with his father in the faith’s
custom of “nicknaming” disciples…
…Tomiwa has given to every member of the
Amsterdam Mission Team a t-shirt with
his or her nickname on the back!
The close was completely unexpected! Anthony & Cassidy announced that the 2020 EMC would be held as usual during the last weekend in October… but for the first time in Paris, France!
The Olmoses announced that the 2020 EMC will
be held in Paris and that the Edinburgh,
Scotland Mission Team will be
sent out at that time!
To close out the EMC, everyone “bridged the
aisles arm-in-arm” and sang, Great
Among The Nations!
Erik af Klint – the new Stockholm Church Leader –
baptized his son Gustaf on November 10th,
which is Father’s Day in Sweden!
Still greatly encouraged by the EMC, Elena & I left Monday at noon, October 28th for Sydney and the Austral-China Missions Conference!
Sydney
On Monday afternoon, October 28th, Elena & I boarded an 11 hour flight from London to Bangkok! After a long 24 hour layover in Bangkok, we flew another 11 hours to Sydney! We arrived in Sydney at 7:30AM on October 31st – Halloween Day! We received a glorious SoldOut Movement Welcome from Joe & Kerry Willis – the Austral-China World Sector Leaders – and the vivacious Sydney Disciples! Upon landing, Kerry shared in joy with us that Katrina – a gifted single professional – was baptized the night before!
The Austral-China Disciples gave a fantastic SoldOut
Movement Welcome to the McKeans!
For Kip & Elena, every visit to be with the incredibly
zealous Australian Disciples has been
life-changing!
November is Spring in Sydney and everything was a vivid green with the multitudinous Jacaranda Trees – originally from Brazil – in their full purple bloom! Australians call them the “exam trees,” because they bloom at exam time! What a lovely time of year for the Austral-China Missions Conference (ACMC) – LIVING THE DREAM!
Kip first saw Jacaranda Trees in Johannesburg
in 1986, and he is so pleased that they
are all over the world in Sydney,
as well as Los Angeles!
The 2019 ACMC was entitled, LIVING THE DREAM!
Speakers Lunch was at 1:00PM at the Heroes of Waterloo Pub! So awesome to see Chris & Sonja Chloupek of Orlando, Princeton & Joy George of Las Vegas, Joel & Courtney Parlour of Seattle, Mike & Brittany Underhill of Los Angeles, Nick & Denise Bordieri of Phnom Penh, and Mason & Nathalie Fetelika of San Diego, who were members of the Sydney Mission Team!
The McKeans were so grateful to greet Joel
& Courtney Parlour of Seattle at
the Speakers Lunch!
Joe enthusiastically presented the detailed
schedule for the ACMC!
Mason & Nathalie Fetelika of San Diego were
given a “hero’s welcome,” as they were
on the original Sydney Mission Team!
Elena & I were blessed to be seated at lunch with Chi Leong, and the newlyweds – Aaron & Fang Ha! What an encouraging time of fellowship with our three spiritual grandchildren!
The McKeans adore the charismatic
newlyweds – Aaron & Fang Ha!
That evening at 7:00PM was the Church Builders Workshop (CBW) at the trendy Tramsheds Event Hall!
Kip & Elena met for the first time Anneliese (left)
and Lottie Haleck – 25 year old American
Samoan twins – from Hawaii!
Upon entering, we were greeted by sisters serving tea and homemade Chinese dumplings by Felice Ma! A very tasty light dinner!
Homemade Chinese dumplings and tea
were served before the CBW!
The Registration at the ACMC was so smooth…
like LIVING THE DREAM!
Everyone loved their ACMC t-shirts!
Then came the gorgeous Cultural Dances by the disciples! A Chinese Drum Crew entered from the front and from the back came the dragon (Chi and Amos Du)!
For the Cultural Presentations, the Drum
Crew entered from the front…
…and for a surprise, then the Dragon
entered from the back!
In a moving and symbolic moment, the Dragon –
representing China – knelt before Joe, the
Austral-China World Sector Leader as
his charge is to evangelize China!
Beautiful Chinese Dance and Samoan Dance Presentations followed!
The gifted Chinese Dancers!
The ever-so-graceful Samoan Dancers!
Then came the captivating “Haka Dual” between the Samoans led by Scotty Iakopo and the New Zealanders led by Sean Valenzuela! To close, Scotty and Ian Clague of the New Zealanders closed ranks, touched heads, and then the two groups danced as one… signifying the unity only in the Kingdom!
The formidable Samoan Haka Dancers
were challenged by…
…the fierce New Zealand Haka Dancers!
The Dance-off began…
…back and forth they challenged each other!
Praise God, at the end there was a unity to
be found only in the Kingdom!
The fun-loving Joe & Kerry Willis welcomed all
to the ACMC Church Builders Workshop!
After a break and a song, I was privileged to preach, DARE TO DREAM!
Joe found real cymbals so that he could
punctuate the chorus of
There Is A God!
Kip spoke with great conviction
on DARE TO DREAM!
Following another break, five short charges were given: Vision To Pray Like Jesus – Chi, Vision To Write Powerfully – Elena, Vision To Make Dreams A Reality – the Georges, Vision To Mend Broken Dreams – Chris, and Vision To Change Your Character – Mason!
Elena shared the challenges in writing ELEVATE
during her charge – Vision To Write Powerfully!
Princeton & Joy George of Las Vegas
added so much to the conference!
Then the evening closed with Mike leading the song, Men Who Dream with Star Natua of Sydney enthusiastically performing the beginning solo! I can always tell where a church or a conference is “at spiritually” by the singing! This closing song was sung “deafeningly loud,” so I knew that first night was a “home run!”
Star sang with all of her heart the opening
solo of Men Who Dream: Captives
came, back into Zion…
Mike Underhill enthusiastically led the remainder of
Men Who Dream, whose writing was inspired
by one of Kip’s lesson from Psalm 126
in the early 1980’s!
On Friday morning, we rose early to be close to the Lord, as it was a very full day! After several phone calls and emails in the later morning, we had an encouraging lunch with Princeton & Joy and Mason & Nathalie! Nathalie served as Elena’s & my assistant and as the co-editor of the Good News Email for two years! She is a daughter to us and Mason is my “Uso!”
At the Geographic Missions Conferences, the
McKeans are able to spend great d-times
with most of the leaders – both
local and abroad!
Then we spent the next three hours with Joe & Kerry discussing the future plans in the Austral-China World Sector, as well as how they and we were doing spiritually. All of the ACMC Delegates traveled about an hour outside of Sydney to arrive at The Tops Conference Centre – the retreat site for the Second Austral-China Missions Conference! Elena & I quickly readied ourselves for dinner at 6:00PM, as the evening program started at 7:30PM!
All of the meals at the Tops Conference
Retreat Centre were delicious!
From the first song, the singing was awesome… And through the evening, the volume kept going up! Following came the Flag Presentation of all of the countries in the Austral-China World Sector and the formal Welcome to the ACMC!
Like reading the Bible, the Flag
Presentations never get old!
Aaron & Fang oversaw the Flag Presentation
and then gave a dazzling Welcome!
Uniquely at the ACMC, Church Leaders from around
the world were asked to participate in
the International Prayer!
After a tremendous Opening Video about the Austral-China World Sector, Elena & I shared GOOD NEWS FROM AROUND THE WORLD!
In the GOOD NEWS FROM AROUND THE WORLD,
Kip & Elena shared a great deal about the
EMC and the European Churches!
Following our half an hour presentation, Kerry appointed two Women’s Ministry Leaders! Very touching was Audrey Lam’s sharing when she expressed her appreciation for all who had impacted her to go into the ministry; especially so was when she thanked her husband, Audrey spoke in Mandarin as Dean is Chinese! Then we sang, We Love You With The Love Of The Lord to these two heroines in the faith! (The other sister must remain anonymous as she is our Crouching Tiger #2 WML and our first Chinese WML!)
Audrey surprised her new husband Dean, when she
thanked him in his first language – Mandarin!
After a short break, Scotty Iakopo preached on, IS JESUS’ DREAM YOUR DREAM? His two points were: A Dream Out Of Our Minds and A Dream For All! Scotty shared in-depth about when he was a baby Christian that “going into the ministry” was a burden, because he had lost his gratitude for his salvation, and he wanted to keep “his dreams” more than Jesus’ dream! Following his fantastic lesson, the Prayer War Room opened in the Banksia Office!
The inspiring Apia Church Leaders –
Scotty & Jenna Iakopo!
Saturday, we awoke afresh and ready for the day’s events! However, I received a message from Cory Blackwell that our dear sister and his precious mom was on the brink of the Jordan. We cried as we prayed over the phone. At 9:00AM were the Men’s and Women’s Programs! Both had the same structure: The opening speeches were on WHY ARE YOU AFRAID TO DREAM? These lessons was preached by Mike Underhill and Kerry Willis respectively!
Kerry has been a daring dreamer for
her entire Christian life!
I heard terrific comments from Elena about Kerry’s speech! I was blessed to hear Mike Underhill’s lesson! His three points were: 1) Face The Dream, 2) Embrace The Dream, and 3) Don’t Waste The Dream! His main text was 2 Kings 4 – about the Shunammite Woman and her miraculous child! Mike concluded his “catchy” lesson with the bottom line: “F” from FACE, “E” from EMBRACE, and “W” from WASTE – FEW – “few” truly dream God’s dream! So true!
Mike Underhill leads the City of Angels Campus
Ministry, which has over 200 college students!
After a break, Admonitions were delivered on varying titles from Bible Study That Gives Vision to Finding The One To Dream With! The close out speeches of each program were DREAM NEW DREAMS by Dean and Elena!
The “visionary” sister teachers – Teigan, Courtney,
Nathalie, Sonja, Brittany, Jenna and Audrey!
The “visionary” men preachers – Nick, Chi, Chris,
Emmanuel, Joel, Jessie and Aaron!
Then came lunch with the Valenzuelas! At 2:00PM, Elena & I were privileged to meet with the Crouching Tiger #2 Mission Team!
During the McKeans’ time with the Valenzuelas,
they talked about bearing even more
fruit in Auckland!
At 3:00PM was a special Married Session entitled, Dream Marriages by Chris & Sonja! Though we were planning on attending, Joe asked if Elena & I could meet with Pete Wade’s mom!
The Chloupeks and Willises have been best
friends for almost 8 years, ever since the
Willises came to LA to train in 2012!
A delicious Dinner was served promptly at 6:00PM! At 7:00PM was MERCY Night! This was highlighted by the MERCY Video which featured the CSW MERCY Orphanage in Phnom Penh! Immediately following was the MERCY Moment given by Nick & Denise – the inspirational Directors of the MERCY Orphanage!
The newlyweds – Jessie & Elizabeth Cross – gave
the MERCY Night Welcome, as they serve as
the Shepherding Couple-in-training
for Sydney!
The jubilant ACMC MERCY Ambassadors!
That night, we heard Sean preach the Word entitled, HOW TO KEEP DREAMING!
In his excellent sermon, Sean’s two points
were: Take Delight In The Lord and
Take Delight In The Dream!
Then we heard a short but incredible concert from Joe’s & Kerry’s son – Luke – and his talented band, the Lucid Hoops!
Kerry and Elena were excited
about hearing Lucid Hoops!
Through the years, Luke has become a
dear grandson to Kip & Elena!
Lucid Hoops did not disappoint, as the ACMC
Delegates applauded loudly and most even
danced! (Luke was on the drums!)
The glorious Sunday Worship Service began at 9:00AM with angelic singing, a vivacious Welcome by Dean & Audrey, and an International Prayer! There were 146 in attendance! The touching Communion was given by Scotty & Jenna Iakopo and the Contribution Charge was powerfully delivered by Sean & Teigan! Sean emphatically stated, “Contribution fuels dreams!”
The Valenzuelas shared so succinctly,
“Contribution fuels dreams!”
Following, Joe Willis preached one of the most insightful and convicting sermons that I have ever heard entitled, TO DREAM THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM! His premise of “God and God alone is enough for us” was ironically illustrated through the life of Judas! Joe’s points were: 1) Judas – A Man For Whom God’s Love Was Never Enough, 2) Judas – A Man For Whom God’s Comfort Was Never Enough, and 3) Judas – A Man For Whom God’s Forgiveness Was Never Enough! Joe went on to hypothesize that since Judas was the only Apostle not from Galilee, he was God’s “first choice” to be the Apostle to the Gentiles… not Paul!
Joe preached one of the best sermons
that I have ever heard!
Prayerfully no disciple has any “kindof greed!” (Luke 12:15)
To close the service, Nick & I had the immense privilege to pray over the Crouching Tiger #2 Mission Team as the Spirit sent it off to Mainland China!
The tearful and joyful Crouching Tiger #2
Mission Team Send Off!
That evening at 7:00PM was the much anticipated Kingdom Banquet Ship Cruise around the breath-taking Sydney Harbor!
As great friends, Joe & Kerry and Kip &
Elena are helping each other “fight
the good fight of the faith!”
Always serving, Joel pointed the
way to the cruise ship!
Since Ian is a New Zealander, Ian & Margot
Clague have become the “pillar couple”
for the awesome Auckland Church!
The evening was filled with delightful fellowship, an incredible seafood feast, pure dancing and a closing devotional of songs and prayer! We docked at 11:00PM sharp!
Berek Tilialo – a Samoan National – is a dynamic
Intern for the Apia Church!
The beautiful – both inside and out –
Daughters of the King!
who have known each other for 25 years! (Excitingly,
on November 24th, their son Chase was baptized
in the AMS Region of the LA Church!)
The Sydney Harbor Cruise Kingdom Banquet…
There are bigger boats for the 2020 ACMC!
Everyone danced and had a lot of fun… even Kip!
Two of a kind: The so crazy and so
lovable Lams and Underhills!
To close the cruise and the ACMC on a spiritual high,
a half an hour devotional was led by Joe!
Nobody wanted the ACMC to end!
Monday was spent problem-solving with the Bordieris concerning MERCY around the globe!
Traveling to the different Geographic Missions
Conferences, allows the McKeans to tackle
first hand difficult situations
in the churches!
Later, we were delighted to meet with the Fetelikas for one last time!
The McKeans are so proud of the efforts for
the Lord by the Fetelikas in San Diego!
The McKeans were able to meet some of
the locals during their time off!
Wazeriah Blackwell Goes To Glory
At 5:20AM on Tuesday in Sydney (but Monday, November 4th at 10:20AM in Los Angeles), Wazeriah Yamin Blackwell – Cory’s mom with Cory’s hand with hers – passed into glory at 77 years old. From a worldly perspective, to quote the song, Autumn leaves must fall. Yet, the Spirit says, “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His faithful servants.” (Psalm 116:15)
Cory and his beloved Mom!
Cory was baptized into Christ in 1991 and became the Middle East World Sector Leader in 1993! Wazeriah was a Muslim all her life until she was baptized in 1999 at the ICOC Middle East Missions Conference in San Diego! She was the guiding light in Cory’s amazing life from his birth to his decision to accept a basketball scholarship from the University of Wisconsin to her attaining her CPA License to Cory’s restoration in 2010 in the New Movement to – even though she was blind – calling different disciples around the world daily! (I received a call of encouragement from Wazeriah at least once a month!)
At Cory’s 50th Birthday Party, his mom Wazeriah
and his spiritual mom Elena sat together!
As Tim Kernan wrote, “Wazeriah will forever be a ‘legend’ in our worldwide fellowship! Her Going Home Celebration [on November 10th in LA] was an incredible send off to Heaven!” 400 attended from the City of Angels Church in LA, as well as many ICOC guests!
At Wazeriah’s Celebration of Life, Cory spoke
with tremendous joy about his mom
going to her home in Heaven!
Tuesday, November 5th, Elena & I experienced the “circle of life,” as at 10:20AM Kolbe & Rebecca Gray were blessed by the birth of their beautiful daughter – Keeva Rose! She was a healthy 7lbs. 4oz. and 20 inches long! Keeva means “beautiful, precious and gentle” in Hebrew!
Two weeks late, “Princess Keeva” finally
arrived on November 5, 2019!
New Delhi
On Wednesday, November 6th, Raul Moreno sent me the following CNN Article: India’s top court has criticized authorities for not doing enough to curb New Delhi’s dangerous levels of air pollution, calling it a “blatant and grave violation of right to life.” Thick smog has blanketed the country’s capital in recent days, forcing flights to be canceled and schools to be shut. New Delhi, which is home to more than 18 million people, has declared it a public health emergency, with authorities halting work at construction sites and instituting new traffic controls limiting the number of cars on the road. The capital, which regularly tops lists of the world’s most polluted cities, typically experiences heavy smog during the Winter months, as farmers in surrounding states burn stubble to prepare their land for the next crop.
New Delhi is often ranked as having the worst air
quality of any city in the world!
The period from mid-October to mid-November also coincides with Diwali, the Hindu Festival of Lights, when residents set-off firecrackers as part of the celebrations. [On Wednesday, November 6th, the Air Quality (Pollution) Index in New Delhi had risen to an astounding level of 762! 0 to 50 is considered good.]
At an Air Quality Index of 762, it is equivalent to
smoking 50 cigarettes in a day!
That Wednesday evening, our last in Sydney, I received word that my dear friend Milo Abelo passed away. I met Milo – my taxi cab driver – in 1989 in Manila during the “spying out the land trip” and he was baptized that summer! He later fell away, but was restored. Sadly, he fell away again over doctrine and died outside of God’s plan of salvation. I loved Milo very much.
Milo & Kip had a very special bond!
Upon receiving the Crown of Thorns Council Meeting and the South Asia Missions Conference (SAMC) Programs, Marcel Turner’s comment to me was, “This is epic!” This proved to be a true prophecy!
TAJ – “Crown” in Hindi – was the sensational
theme for both the Crown of Thorns
Meeting and the SAMC!
Elena & I flew from Sydney through Bangkok to New Delhi arriving there at 11:00PM on Thursday, November 7th! We were graciously greeted by Raja & Debs Rajan – the incredible leaders of the Indian Family of Churches – and a fired up crowd of almost 100 Delhi Disciples! Since the current Indian Government is led by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), and thus committed to a “Hindu agenda” of anti-Christianity, it would have been very unwise to sing a Christian song. We did however “huddle up” for a “cranking prayer” led by Raja! Because it rained a few hours before we landed, the Air Quality Index had plummeted “for the good” from 762 to about 200! Yet, this was still “unhealthy!”
The McKeans were greeted by
almost 100 Delhi Disciples!
Friday, November 8th, Elena & I spent the first part of the day getting ready for our meetings that would start Saturday, November 9th and would end eight days later on the following Sunday! That evening, Raja & Debs Rajan took Elena shopping for an Indian dress, as I tagged along! Of course, traveling all the way to India, in my heart I was looking forward to an awesome Indian meal! So, I asked Raja where he’d like to have dinner; he replied with a smile, “Chile’s!”
Auto Rickshaws are a key mode of
transportation in New Delhi!
Inside the mall, the Rajan’s and Elena pointed out
that, without the Holy Spirit, Starbucks had
evangelized the world in this generation!
Saturday evening, November 9th at 7:00PM was the World Sector Leader Meeting! We met at the Le Meridian Hotel, where almost all of the functions of the Crown of Thorns Council Meeting (November 10-13th) and the South Asia Missions Conference (November 14-17th) also met! Both had the theme of TAJ!
The original wooden World Sector Leader Chalices!
The World Sector Leaders so enjoy their times
together… just like true family!
The World Sector Leaders celebrated
Nick’s 60th Birthday!
At his age, Nick had a difficult time
blowing out the “60” candles!
Matt Sullivan preached on HEAVY LIES THE CROWN! So powerful was his sharing about how “pressure” particularly about church finances had hurt him at different points in his ministries in Phoenix, Santiago, LA, Orlando and even in Miami! He preached that all of the World Sector Leaders should repent of a “scarcity mentality” and embrace an “abundance mentality,” as God is sovereign and “there are so many financial opportunities for churches to raise missions out there in the ‘blue ocean’ of the internet!”
Matt preached to the World Sector Leaders’
needs on dealing spiritually with pressure!
Afterward, at 9:30PM, the World Sector Leader Brothers met to strategize the 2020, 2021 and 2022 plantings!
The late night World Sector Leader Strategy Meeting

Sunday morning, the World Sector Leaders (WSLs) and the Crown of Thorns Council (COTC) met with the New Delhi Church for an incredibly inspiring Worship Service! Two of the four opening songs were in English and the other two in Hindi! Though none of us in the COTC except the Rajans knew Hindi, when the word “hallelujah” was sung in the chorus, all of us joined in with great enthusiasm!
New Delhi is the capital of India with a metro
area approaching 50 million!
Roger Green – the Kathmandu Evangelist – gave an energetic Welcome sharing that India had a population of 1.3 billion lost souls, speaking 19,000 languages! Following was a drum roll where the names of each WSL Couple and each member of the COTC were called out and the New Delhi Sisters of Encouragement lovingly placed a garland of flowers around our necks!
A garlands of colorful flowers were given to each
Crown of Thorns Council member after their
name and city were announced!
Rezo & Sasha Davitadze of Moscow!
Oleg & Aliona Sirotkin of Kiev!
Lance & Connie Underhill of LA and
publishers of ICC Hot News!
The Crown of Thorns Council was honored to have
reserved seats at the front of the auditorium!
Ricky & Coleen Challinor gave a stirring Communion; Michael & Sharon Kirchner shared a convicting Contribution Charge!
The Kirchners partook of Communion immediately
before their Contribution Charge!
Raja – called by Roger the “Lion of India” – delivered a strong message on this hurting and very lost world! The title of his message was, TRY JESUS! Roger gave the closing comments, which were echoed with loud amens and applause, when he stated, “Great to hear the Lion roar from the pulpit!”
Raja – “The Lion of India” – was translated
into Hindi by Jeffrey Norris!
The 31 Delhi Teen Disciples are called “The Knights!”
That Sunday night the WSLs and the COTC gathered for our initial meeting!
Chris Adams – soon-to-be a Shepherd for the
Chicago Church – led the singing for the
first Crown of Thorns Council Session!
After a Welcome by Elena & me, we presented to everyone small marble elephants whose white marble came from the same quarry as the stones for the Taj Mahal! As well, the elephants were decorated with semi-precious stones in similar patterns as those on the inner walls of the Taj Mahal!
As a token of appreciation, Elena helped to give
out the small marble Elephants to each
Crown of Thorn Council Disciple!
The Crown of Thorns Council was fired up to receive
the marble elephants as a memorial of
the New Delhi Meeting!
Following came a “first” for the SoldOut Movement! In time-appropriate costumes, disciples – portraying history-shaping persons of our host country – gave dramatic presentations through soliloquies entitled, GLIMPSES OF INDIAN HISTORY: 563-483BC – Gautama Buddha (Raja Rajan), 356-323BC – Alexander the Great (John Jayakaran), 52-72AD – Apostle Thomas (Kip McKean), 1761-1834AD – William Carey (Jude Niranjan), 1828-1858AD – Jhansi Ki Rani (Vandana Johnson), and 2019AD – Shiv Sena (Jeffrey Norris)! We sang songs between each 10 minute presentation! I believe that Raja assigned the Apostle Thomas to me as my full name is “Thomas” Wayne McKean II.
The GLIMPSES OF INDIA actors!
“Doubting Thomas” became “Believing Thomas”
as, he died a martyr in Madras (Chennai),
India in 72AD!
Mark & Keri Garrido of Honolulu so enjoyed
the India History Presentation!
On Monday, November 11th at 7:00AM, we boarded buses to the Taj Mahal! This was about a four hour bus ride, but more than worth it to see one of the Seven Modern-Day Wonders of the World! As we traveled, it was very sobering to see out of the window mile after mile of third world poverty! We finally arrived at the Taj Mahal about 11:30AM!
The McKeans and their dear friend and Shepherding
Couples of the Movement – Nick & Denise Bordieri

The very fruitful World Sector Leaders of
Africa – Andrew & Patrique Smellie!
According to Wikipedia, The Taj Mahal – in Hindi “Place or Position of the Crown” – is an Ivory-white marble Islamic Mausoleum [with parts inlaid with semi-precious stones] on the south bank of the Yamuna River in the city of Agra. It was commissioned in 1632 by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan to house the tomb of his favorite wife Mumtaz Mahal; it also houses the tomb of Shah Jahan himself! It took 22 years to build! 20,000 artisans worked on this at a present day cost of over 800 million dollars! Perhaps true or perhaps a traditional myth: The Taj’s beauty was so magnificent that the Shah had the architect’s hands cut off, so that he could not draw plans for another one!
Michael & Sharon Kirchner – the World Sector
Leaders of Administration and Law!
Jason & Sarah Dimitry – the very effective
Geographic Sector Leaders for Northern
California, Hawaii, Nevada,
Colorado and Texas!
Afterward, at about 2:30PM, we had a delightful Indian lunch, and some went shopping for inexpensive Indian wear for Saturday’s Kingdom Banquet!
A late lunch was so enjoyed by the Crown of
Thorns Council after visiting the Taj Mahal!
Debs became the bravest woman that Kip
knows, as she did not flinch when the
cobra tried in vain to strike her!
Alfredo Anuch of Santiago was unaware
of the cobra’s effort to strike Debs!
Blaise & Patricia Feumba will return to Abidjan,
Ivory Coast from LA in August 2020 to lead the
French-speaking Africa Churches!
Another intriguing legend is that the Emperor Shah
Jahan wanted to build a “Black Taj Mahal”
across the Yamuna River as a
mausoleum for himself!
Michele preached to the Crown of Thorns Sisters!

devotional at the Leprosy Colony, and then
we split into men and women groups
to visit the patients!
The sisters sang to 24 year old
leprosy patient Anjum!
Hearing the life stories of the lepers
humbled all of the International

A black and white copy of Ron Harding’s book
on the history of the SoldOut Movement

which is predominately Buddhist!
On November 17th, even though Co & I were away at the SAMC, God gave the Manila Church a record attendance of 613 for our BYND! This was spearheaded by Sean & Krystal O’Connor, who will plant Guam in January 2020, as they had 18 and 20 personal visitors respectively!
Sean & Krystal are so looking forward to January 12,
2020 when the Guam Mission Team will
be sent out from Manila!
Also, the Lord gave us the miracle of an answered prayer by Vynee Guardiana, one of the young Manila Region Leaders! Vynne was blessed to baptize both her mother, Nanette, and little sister, Vea, into Christ on November 3rd!
Vynne rejoiced with her mom and her sister!
With all of these miracles, Satan has attacked many of our brothers and sisters with intense persecution! Just one example: We have a teen sister, a senior in high school, who was baptized a few months ago. Her father is the ex-governor of Marawi, so she converted from being Muslim! One night, some of the campus disciples took her home, at which her brother and cousins came out and physically assaulted one of the brothers to the point of stomping his face on the ground! Luckily, security came and stopped it! Her sister then came and began punching our sister in the face and in the process punched Carlos Robielos and his new wife Quennie in the face! Carlos and the disciples have filed police reports, but the family remained aggressive and sent her to Marawi, where ISIS has control here in the Philippines!
Marawi is the the capital of the Lanao del Sur
Province in the Bangsamoro Autonomous
Region of the Philippines, as well as
Marari the “center for ISIS” in
the Philippines!
The few days after her arrival there, she texted Quennie saying, “Ate, I am going to stay faithful! I am grateful to suffer persecution like Jesus did.” She has continued to fight with great perseverance over persecution! She is now back in Manila, though her family keeps her under heavy surveillance. With her family’s persecution, they took her Bible and her quiet time notebook. But that did not stop her; our incredible God still made a way for her to read and pray everyday! One of her school teachers gave her a Bible that she keeps in school so she can still have her quiet time. Furthermore, her teacher also assigned her to pray in front of the class everyday! She communicates with the disciples regularly through social media. Please keep us and her in your prayers to “never stop teaching and proclaiming the good news that Jesus is the Messiah!” (Acts 5:42)
ICCM-Manila has students from not only Metro
Manila, but also Cebu and Davao!
Coleen and I thank God everyday, as we are living our dream to evangelize this incredible part of the world! Thank you USA Churches for your generous expressions of love in your missions collections that God has used to make these miracles possible!
