Guest Post - from Sonlit Fields Ministry Board

Hello from the Board of Sonlit Fields Ministry!  


1.  We would like to thank you for your prayer, relational and financial support for Ken & Michele Cole - Sonlit Fields Ministry.   We know they are encouraged when they can experience the fruit of their ministry.  Thank YOU for your part!   We bless you and appreciate you! 

2.  We as a board would like to encourage you or your church to prayerfully consider extending an invitation to them to come speak and minister in this next year.  Their gifts of teaching, activating and encouraging others through the prophetic and healing is vital in these days to reach people.   Proverbs 15:23 A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it!   Their heart and passion is to equip the Body of Christ to reach a lost and hurting world.  Their down to earth, naturally supernatural approach has been successful in reaching the unbeliever and even crosses over denominational borders.  Their hearts are to love and serve wherever God leads.  

3.  Ken & Michele have trusted God for their daily financial needs for many years.  Their unwavering faith and trust is commendable, but is difficult to walk out daily. They are not ones to ask for money and have submitted to this ministry board to send this out.  We believe God honors what they are doing and we can honor them as well by supporting the ministry God has given them. 

We have been praying for God to bring regular consistent givers to come alongside them and support them so they can continue to step into all that God has called them to do.  They have reached many people.   We as the board of Sonlit fields Ministry are asking, if they have at any time blessed you would you please consider sowing into their ministry and their personal finances.  At the bottom of this post, we will list the few ways you can do so. 

Testimony from Mary B -I would like to share that the ministry that Ken and Michele have brought to our community and the way it has touched my husband and I has been a blessing.  We are very grateful for how the Lord has directed them in this much needed special area of teaching of discernment of the Holy Spirit,  growing people up with multiple blessings of generosity.  Teachings on how we can hear God and the teachings about the Holy Spirit. They have blessed others and have not asked for money in return. They are humble and generous. To show your support please consider giving to them.  

"We have seen them in wealth and in humility of simplicity and proven to be good stewards” Paige Roy - Ministry intercessor and friend


Our lives have been enriched for the past four years by the ministry of Ken and Michele Cole. We have been blessed to be their pastor during a portion of this time, but beyond that, we have found this friendship to be a rare pastor-parishioner relationship in which we have received more than we have given. Anyone would be hard pressed to "outgive" this couple who live out their calling every day. 

Ken and Michele have a heart for pastors and missionaries. It is rare to come across people like this who so intimately understand the demands of ministry! They continually ask us how they can pray for us, and then they DO IT. They are incredibly gifted with discernment, intercession, hospitality, faith, helps, teaching, exhortation, and service, and they utilize their gifts effectively to bring glory to God and refreshment to others.

Interestingly, though they have not yet entered their promised land (a retreat center where they can expand their ministry), for the past four years they have given 100% of their energies in ministry while waiting in the desert. They have continued to believe God was going to provide, all the while seeking out individuals who they could encourage and minister to. They haven't focused solely on the pastoral families in our church, but to multiple other pastors, leaders, and lay people; countless people in a wide geographical area have had life poured into them by Ken and Michele. Their home is filled with people nearly every day of the week, as they feed them amazing meals (we could write a whole chapter here; what unbelievable chefs they are!), pray over them, love on them, and support and serve them with their ears, hands, and hearts. 

It is our feeling that God has been preparing, grooming, and refining Ken and Michele, but it is time for their ministry to move to a new level. A couple like this - so gifted and sold out to God and His purposes for their lives - needs a bigger platform so as to minister to greater numbers of thirsty and weary pastors and leaders. We continue to pray that God will, in His abundant provision, allow them to purchase a retreat property to continue to serve in an even greater capacity. 

Thank you for considering our recommendation of Ken and Michele Cole as worthy recipients of financial backing in the realization of God's vision and plan for them. Joe and Faith Trussell

Vision
God has given us a vision to build a retreat property along with ministry equipping center.  
The retreat portion of our ministry is to provide a safe place for pastors, lay leaders & other ministry folks to come and be refreshed & encouraged through prophetic ministry (if wanted).  We will offer private cabins with kitchens & full bathrooms, and plenty of places to roam on the property to get quiet with the Lord. 
We will offer other specialty retreats - marriage, healing, prophetic teaching & activating people into the world & health and wellness retreats and more.  

The Lord has graced us with the desire to come alongside the Church - to bring healing, deliverance & freedom to new/newer believers.  We are not wanting to replace their church, but better help them be ready to serve in their church. 
In our community building - we will eventually have a 24/7 prayer room, healing & prophetic rooms and a place for community worship services for those on the property.  


Our passion is to minister to a lost & hurting world.   To equip the saints to do the same and to be a blessing to our community and surrounding areas.  Our hopes are that we can pour out God's love in a mighty way to bring more and more souls into the Kingdom, get them discipled, called into their purpose & destiny and released to do God's business!!!!  We also have a passion to give generously to help those in need and to help others launch into their God given destinies.

Expecting!!!

In this blog:

Expecting!  (Update)

We just wanted to drop you a note to let you know what has been happening since last time we blogged!


This past couple weeks have been packed full of fact finding calls...calling county, state, starting paperwork for 501c3/irs, retreat property owners, cabin builders, contractors, security companies, fencing/gates etc and so many others....all on a little whisper to keep moving forward with "plans" to develop & build a retreat, ministry & equipping center. The main ingredient of money, is God's part. It seems foolish in mans eyes for us to believe God for such a lavish and abundant gift, but our spirits say otherwise. This week we prayed and just asked God to confirm our steps..... a person on Facebook who we dont know (in a mutual group) posted this to us:

MicheleandKen Cole - As I was typing your names I heard the phrase "stay the course" and felt to go look it up on wikipedia: "Stay the course" is a phrase used in the context of a war or battle meaning to pursue a goal regardless of any obstacles or criticism. The crooked ways are being made straight, the high places low, the low places high. He is making the path plain to you and you will not stumble or falter. Just as His eye is on the sparrow, it is on YOU! He says what He means and means what He says! Don't second guess... you've got it! ... and He's got YOU! Blessings!
Today, we are at our church using the wifi and we were chatting with our pastor. At the end of the chat, he just happened to say "stay the course".  Cool!
Last week also, I jokingly prayed and asked God if the money was going to fall out of the sky.  Here's another prophetic word from a stranger:  
The Lord is giving you revelations as you deeply meditate in His Word. I see the joy of the Lord in you... joy that spreads to others. New areas of ministry for you. I saw a child standing with you. I see presents flying out of the sky to you ! God has much to give you. The difficulty you are experiencing now is only for a short time. Just rest in Him.

Here are a couple other unsolicited words given to us by total strangers on Facebook:
MicheleandKen Cole, I'm hearing stand still and watch me work things out for you. Casting all your cares on me. Trust that, I will handle everything in my timing. I am the Lord. If , I said it, I will make it good. My promises are Yea and Amen. Never forget that, I see your life from beginning to end says the Lord. Also you want be disappointed. My love is toward you. I pray this speaks to you.

MicheleandKen Cole get the sense that things haven't been settled but the Lord is going to fix those things that are needing to be settled. You are being increased in your responsibility in the wrelm of the spirit and an increase in your understanding and  a waterfall to be poured on you to pouring out on others. As you are pouring out you will be poured on in greater measure, greater anointing

MicheleandKenCole I see you ground breaking in your life. It's not the ground you are thinking but a new fresh rewarding ground. The Father is pleased with you . Many years you have obeyed His word even when it looked insane. For that you have been chosen to receive more. He is a saying come higher with Him..let go of the weights that so easily entangle you. Come soar like an eagle in the clear blue sky.

MicheleandKen Cole, the day has come to hold hands and march forward. Yellow lights on the right, red light on the left, and I see a magnificent purple light beaming from the middle. You two are walking on sandy path towards this magnificent purple beauty. Purple is royalty colors. You are seated in Heavenly places. I keep hearing "take your seat". I see this to mean there may be hesitation to feel secure in the position of authority He has given you but no need. It is time to walk in freedom of what He has before you.

There are so many prophetic words out there saying that September is the month we are going to see shifts - shifts in health, finances and more.  Some of these resonate with what we feel the Lord is saying to us in our quiet time and also lines up with some of what is happening in the natural.  For instance, our lease on our rental is up September 30th.  We had dinner with the sellers of the property we feel God is leading us to and they said that they plan to take house and property off the market September 30th and they won't be selling.  (now that may change now that they know our full God story - and they are very much interested in being part of it - as he is a general contractor.  He has offered to help us design, develop & build the retreat property/ministry building - as little or as much involvement as we want. - that in itself is a huge God ordained thing).  

Earlier this year, I felt the Lord say, August was a month of suddenlies.  It sure has been.  So much forward momentum and yet we still must wait on God for His timing and His provision.  God has been definitely involved lining things up, creating divine appointment and connections this last couple weeks of August.  Exciting, scary and a bit stir crazy at the anticipation of how God is going to pull this off!  We don't know the "how" or the "when" but feel it's getting close!!!!

We are asking for those that are praying and standing and believing with us to please please continue!!  
Here are a few specific prayer points! 
1. Pray for continued divine appointments & connections.
2. Pray for my health (believing that is going to shift to divine healing soon - I'm ready).
3. Pray for God's perfect timing and provision for vision!  (we continue to hear, it's coming).
4. Pray that our new board of directors will work well together and be in alignment with the vision God is giving us!  
5. Pray for everyday provision as well... Ken's job still only part time, minimum wage and when this gets launched full steam, he will need to be full time at the retreat property.


f you have been blessed by this ministry or feel led to support what God is doing through us - financially, below are a few options.  Your generosity and your prayer support is greatly appreciated and needed as we continue to walk in faith and God's calling. 

God Bless YOU -
Ken & Michele Cole
