Electric Daisy Carnival NY- Saturday
My first experience going on “mission” with “Jesus luvs Ravers” was amazing!! Upon entering the Electric Daisy Carnival it started to down pour. At first we were praying for the skies to clear. But, we quickly realized this was an unexpected opportunity to talk with ravers waiting out the rain.
Our team surrounded by masses of ravers trying to stay dry decided to break into prayer to shift the atmosphere and open doors. As soon as we broke our prayer huddle the Lord highlighted a couple. Without hesitation or analyzing, I approached them. At first the girl was not receiving me but the Lord opened a door. They told me they were engaged. The girl Monica started to beam at my interest in their relationship. That opened a door to share with them both how I was introduced into the rave scene by my boyfriend; that our relationship turned into marriage as well. I was able to share how we were lost and searching for MORE. As I was talking through this encounter and watching the Lord work, my heart couldn’t have been more alive. Here I was 12-13 yrs past my days of walking in this darkness but now redeemed in Christ leading a precious couple down the straight and narrow path of the Lord!! How good is the Lord to allow me to lead them down a path that was so far from us during that time. As we spoke I found out they were Catholic. I asked them if they had ever heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ. They had not so I asked them if I could share the gospel with them. Yes, thank you Jesus!! There we went on a 5 min. adventure through the scriptures. I was over the moon- nothing else brings my heart more joy then to share the Gospel with an unbeliever. They read the gospel themselves as we interacted with questions. Monica was a lawyer and very inquisitive. The Lord was moving in her heart!! As we went through I watched Hebrews 4:12 take place in her heart. (12 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart). Her fiancé James was a little apprehensive but the Lord allowed for him to hear that Christ is to be first in his life and in their marriage. Praise God!! Monica was telling James; “wait, let me finish going through the gospel”. Love it!! The conversation ended with me asking Monica what Romans 10:9 was saying to her heart. With a huge smile on her face and visible expressions of receiving revelation Monica said; “ If I confess with my mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in my heart that God raised Him from the dead, I will be saved”!! James was ready to roll, we ended with a quick prayer of blessing! The Lord spoke!!
Yes Lord, here we go pumped and fired up into another 16 hrs @ this 2 day festival to dance with the Lord and love on ravers!! All the praise and glory to our Father in heaven for the hundreds of lives touched that weekend!! Thank you Jesus for this slice of heaven in the “Jesus Luvs Ravers” Holy Spirit movement ; )

Well, this happens right here on American soil in Miami at an event called “Ultra Music Festival”. Some of the Set Ablaze team is raising funds to attend the festival this March. We desire to share the love of Christ to this (what the SAI team likes to call them) “unreached people group”. Read our mission letter below:
As we see in Scripture, there are times and seasons for everything (Ecclesiastes 3). All of us at Set Ablaze International have been in a season of preparation and anticipation as we have drawn closer to the time of fulfillment we are now in. What we saw in the distance – reaching the multitudes from many nations – is now before us. The time to labor in a ripe “harvest field” is now.
In 2013, the leadership team of Set Ablaze International went to an EDM festival here in Atlanta called “Tomorrow World”, which drew in 140,000 international lost souls per day, making it quite possibly the largest and most successful EDM festival in America – in only its first year! What we witnessed there as we spoke to prodigals and prayed for ravers and club owners only proved the great need to reach this global culture. They are ready to encounter the God in us. Tomorrow World is coming back later this year, but we have another incredible evangelistic opportunity much sooner, and it’s right here on domestic soil.
Miami’s annual Ultra Music Festival will be taking place at the end of March, and, much like Tomorrow World, will likely gather over 300,000 people from many nations to dance and search for love and pleasure. We know the God they are looking for – “But how can they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how can they believe without hearing about Him? And how can they hear without a preacher? And how can they preach unless they are sent?” (Romans 10:14-15). God has commissioned us, but it is through partnership in the gospel that we can be truly sent. This requires our brothers and sisters in the Lord to partner with us.
We cannot reach this group without your support and prayers!!! Desire to partner with us??
