Steve Lee
and the Pluto Fund. Since our mission in 2002, "Church in the Park",
a close working partnership with Steve Lee of Miracle Street has been formed.

Steve has also seen
the D-Day Paradigm for many years previously and this was witnessed to by all
our French partners on a key day, 19 April 2004, when the Holy Spirit fell upon
all present to confirm that this was indeed Gods will for us in partnership (www.ccs.churchinsight.com/publiture/article.aspx?ID=63399).
Our involvement in
France: Following the Project Overlord
Prayer Walk during June 2007, it became clear that the St. Thomas' call to
Northern France centres around the D-Day Paradigm that was experienced during
World War II. In particular, the fact that Allied Forces from the South of
England, in particular the British, set France free in the following manner:
(a) Airborne gliders to set
free Pegasus Bridge;
(b) Paratroop Regiment to
set free and silence the guns at the Merville Battery;
(c) Supporting French troops
landing at Sword Beach, which due to the earlier work at Pegasus and Merville,
meant that casualties were minimal and the first French commandos released to
set France free themselves.
In the same way, we believe
that prayer partnership and financial support is only the beginning in enabling
and strengthening La Source and the Northern French church by
unconditional British love to enable the French Church to set its own people
free. Our role in prayer as "Airborne gliders and Paratroopers" means that the
work on the ground can be more effective.
