Support Desert Call Ministries

Many Christians are active in their local churches but feel cut off from a vital, authentic and intimate experience of God’s presence and power. There are many walking wounded in our churches, whose religious behaviors do not begin to provide the healing of deep hurts. Many gifted Christians are not aware of how the Lord is calling them to be used in his mission of bringing wholeness to others. Many Christians feel ill equipped biblically and so have trouble identifying and relying on God’s healing power as revealed in his Word.



There is a need for people to be discipled more deeply in the Ministry of the Holy Spirit. The mission of Desert Call Ministries is to equip disciples of Jesus Christ for the ministries of healing and renewal.

We do this through:

Testimonies & Comments

From OSL Meeting in La Jolla, CA April 2012

Yesterday at our Saint Dunstan's mtg., we discussed how Josh+ reminded us how 2/3 of Jesus' ministry was either healing or delivering. I reflected on my own blessing from The Holy Spirit: In a scrambled attempt to explain my need, Josh+ anointed me with oil and then rebuked "mockery," in the name of Jesus. Three times he had me repeat after him the same exhortation. I instantly understood my confusion and even before returning home with my friend, in her car, I knew I'd been released from a tightness within my chest (that I didn't even know was there); I sensed a fuller, freer space within my heart! Seated next to me was a person, also in ministry, who needed deliverance from depression/burn out. Patiently, and tirelessly Fr. Josh prayed for healing and for our protection from the enemy. By the time Josh+ had moved around the rows of chairs, I realized we were first the "pray-ee" and then readily became the "pray-or!" Each of us surrounded the other, laying on hands and praising our LORD for His abundant grace amongst our fellowship. We praise You, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, for the gift of Your Presence with us and within us collectively! Amen JW

From Healing Winds Conference in North Carolina, October 2010

Layer after layer, freeing, clearing, rooting, grounding and resting.

Generations, peace and healing of emotional pain and guilt of my son‘s mental illness.

Increase in "faith for the moment"

A deeper understanding of the love God has been offering me. I did not experience visual healing but I’m sure I have had some that I will realize later, spiritual healing, yes.

Recent decisions about my life were affirmed.

Transitory relief from back pain, was able to renounce two lies relating to childhood. Reassurance and reestablish fellowship/intimacy with God.

Letting go of some garbage and allowing Jesus to take control of what I don’t need to worry over (children) or what others think!

Spiritual and physical healing thru prayer and hands on meditation.

More healing of abandonment and shame!

It helped me to slow down and listen to what God wants me to do.

A deeper experience.

I feel very cleansed spiritually.

Many prayers for my physical healing, resting in the Spirit so healing emotionally and spiritually.

Simply voicing some pain out loud to a prayer team was helpful, but God started the work as soon as I got here!

Very powerful time with Suzanne and Ron. 1 ? hours of serious work Saturday morning which culminated in the generational healing service Saturday morning (later). Lots of revelation and healing and forgiveness work.

Anger at the Anglican Church. I came to a place of acceptance and realized that we can co-exist.

Healing from a lifelong burden and some physical healing.

Much peace, more joy, more alive-feeling.

I had a difficult childhood with a mom who didn’t know how to love me. We are close now and so I felt guilty even thinking about it but it feels like I had a breakthrough and seeds of healing have been planted on fertile soil. To God be the Glory.

Healing of a childhood memory.

Several nagging issues healed – got peace! Felt closer to Jesus. More clarity about journey.

Josh mentioned Saturday a plumbing problem. I believed I was that and the Plumber was in the House! I had the plumbing /exhaust problem not anymore!

During the Saturday night service, the prophetic words were very clear and helpful in prompting me to step forward for prayer. I had the healing of neck pain. Thank you!

I experienced healing by being the vessel and having the Holy Spirit fill me as the power left me to the people I was praying for.

Healing of 40 years of pain and unforgiveness towards my father for something that happened as a small child

Great!

Amazing prophetic words spoken to me Thursday night. Many God incidences that let me know He has been preparing me for this weekend. So strongly “pushed” down Friday night I thought it was Josh (he assured me it was the Holy Spirit.)

My named changed! A turning point - closure of a painful time, peace of emotional turmoil, energy to carry on with confidence.

Great experience!

The Holy Spirit was all over us!

The infilling of greater spiritual gifts.

I received power to continue in healing ministry.

Prayer team was so helpful.

Soaking prayer soaked a lot off!

Loved Josh's teaching. Generational healing really happened!

My spirit has been refreshed!

I CAN SEE! JESUS! The One I came to see-desperate to see. I CAN SEE!

Rec‘d several wonderful messages from the Lord, answers to specific questions, and was told, "Not to worry", that God has taken care of everything.

The Holy Spirit is so powerful here.

Blessings kept coming.

Rested in the Holy Spirit.

Outstanding experience, as always

During Generational Healing, felt a weight lifted from my shoulders
