Mayor Gow Fields , Commissioners and citizens of Lakeland. I greet you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, who is our savior and soon coming King.
My name is Don Steiner co-founder with Mariaelena Steiner my Wife, of Wings of Eagles International, a local outreach ministry based in Lakeland since 1994. Many ministers and citizens of Lakeland who are listening to the Holy Spirit know that Lakeland has a spiritual destiny that has yet to be fulfilled. As evidenced by the revival that broke out in a small Parrish located in a community called Acton in the early 1890’s. Acton was located on the south end of what is now known as Lake Parker and in 1892 moved to 202 South Massachusetts and now known to us all as All Saints Episcopal.
What God began before the founding of our city on January 1, 1885 has not yet been completed. Therefore it is the responsibility of the citizens of Lakeland, and it’s leadership to seek the face of God almighty and to live a life of Godliness exemplified by integrity and a high moral standard. Looking to Jesus to fulfill the destiny of this great central Florida City by moving in our churches, parishes and the individual lives of its citizens.
Based on the fore mentioned known facts I offer this prayer.
Father, You are God our creator. And as such it is by no coincidence that we are all here today. Your word says Phil. 1:6 Our God, who began the good work in us, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.
Lord we ask you to complete the work you began in the learly1890’s when Lakeland was in it’s infancy and you placed a spiritual destiny upon our great city. Many of us know that destiny has yet to be fulfilled. We know Lord that this will be a city known as a place where people can find a true relationship with you. A spiritual awakening will take place here, that will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
We know that in order for us to see this we must seek your face, we must draw unto you, so you will draw unto us. We must forsake worldliness and the immorality that accompanies it. We must take a moral stand and have the guts to speak out against that which is morally wrong. And have the confidence that you will back us up.
God we call forth a shaking of everything that can be shaken. Break down the walls of disunity. Expose and eliminate that which is not right and establish righteousness in its place. Let our sin that separates us be forgiven. Lord, create in us a clean heart.
Father as a city we stand fast against principalities and powers of evil as outlined in Eph 6:12. Let domestic violence, homelessness, drug and alcohol abuse, witchcraft, idolatry and all other things that seek to destroy our society have the light of the Gospel shine on it, and bring hope to the hurting.
Lord I lift up our leaders that they may know this same hope, and the calling you have placed upon them to be in office at such a time as this. I pray that their hearts will be flooded with your great light so that they can understand this confident hope you give to all who call upon your name.
Lord position the church to be ready for the harvest, and send us more laborers full of the Holy Spirit and your power.
Lord in your name, I place a hedge of protection over the business within Lakeland. Make them prosperous and healthy. Let the souls of the owners and managers prosper in the knowledge of your great Love.
Let our schools experience an outpouring, that our children will be changed by the power of that same love.
Father, let it start today with the leaders of our city. Let the decisions they make be made by your great wisdom. Let righteousness and justice be established in our courts and prisons.
Protect our police and fire and emergency forces. Give them divine wisdom in every situation.
We know by the Holy Spirit that this is your will. 1John 5:14 says, “And so this is the confidence that we have in you, that, if we ask any thing according to your will, you hear us: And if we know that you hear us, we know that we have the petitions we ask.
Thank you Jesus for your great Love. In your name Amen.

Wings of Eagles opens Mustard Tree Productions
Wings of Eagles is happy to announce that in May we will be launching our
new audio/visual production company, “Mustard Tree Productions”. Mustard Tree
Productions will operate under Wings of Eagles International, inc. as a new multimedia nonprofit organization located in Central Florida offering services in music recording, TV Production, and Broadcasting. When we first purchased our facility in May of 2008, we knew this building would be used to fulfill the vision of spreading the gospel. Our three ministries: Wings of Eagles, The Outreach Center, and the Second Chance Training Center all operate from our new building and are fulfilling great needs in our community. To find out more information about these ministries you can go to our website at http://wingsofeagles.net/ The mission of these studios is to provide a medium for our community to spread their messages through the use of audio and video. We want to use these forms of media to aid youth and young adults in our area in spreading the Gospel through music, TV, film, podcasting, interviews, commercials, discussions on the radio station, and many other ways. We are taking a leap of faith as we step out and begin this production company. The ministry who built this building (in 1989) built a studio for their use. The Lord spoke to us many years before we purchased the building about using today’s technology to reach the 30 and under generation. The time is now. We have the facility we just need to begin. I love to quote George W. Jenkins, founder of Publix Supermarkets. He said “Begin, the rest is easy.” This is what we are doing and we need your help. Not only will we reach this generation, but in doing so we will equip them to reach their own generation. One program we are very excited about starting soon after the studio is set up, will be our internship program. We will be looking for students who have a desire to go into the fields of new media and want the opportunity to come and work with a dedicated staff of media professionals in a Christian environment. The interns will be involved in all aspects of the production process from assisting with setup in the recording studios- to camera operation at the video studios. We will be looking for graduating high school seniors as well as college students who have a passion for media to come and work at the facility. On site at our location in Lakeland, we have a 6 room suite (already built) as a recording studio. We will outfit it with full service ProTools HD recording equipment, an HD video production house, and offer audio and video post production services as well. We will have a full service recording studio with over 725 square feet of recording space, and a 300 square foot post production space! This will allow us to record full bands, solo artists, and even small orchestras, while still offering an intimate recording atmosphere. Voice over service’s, media composition for films, field recording, film scoring, and demo packages for local bands and artists will be available as well. We will also have a video production division that will offer video editing and post production services, location shooting, film shooting for movies, set design, and television production. The first phase is to add acoustical treatments to the walls in the recording studios. ($6320.00) We have the designs complete and are in the process of raising the funds to begin. We are also working on setting up our Radio Broadcasting Station (Low watt FM transmitter). Our goal is to be able to minister to people as they are driving on I-4 and the students at the new USF campus just across the street. Our broadcast range will be 8 to 10 miles- Enough to cover the I-4 corridor through Lakeland. Over 100,000 cars per day and hundreds of students on the campus will hear the message. These are the following services we will be offering:
Audio Services*Multitrack Recording Services (ProTools HD)
*Voice-Over Services
*Production Consultation
*Music Composition for Media
*Audio Post Production
*Field Audio Recording
*Demo Packages for Music Groups/Artists
Video Services
*Location Shooting
*Set Construction and Filming
*Video Editing and Post Production
*Set Design
*Filming Services
*Television Production and Post Production
Everything is in place. We know the times we are living in. We must pull out all stops. If we are going to reach the 30 and under generation, we have to speak their language. This is a kingdom effort, not just us alone, but also the body of Christ working together.
“He replied, “..., I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to the mountain “move from here to there,” and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”
Matthew 17:20-21

Oaxaca Momentum Conference
Our 11th year of doing woman's conferences found us in Oaxaca Mexico. This year we held a YOUNG woman's conference for ages 13 to 24. (although others attended) The event was packed with great Worship, the word of God, drama, fashion shows and lots of give-a-ways.
We had peak nights of 700 in attendance this year. Excitement filled the room as they heard from Godly women about Gods Love and Mercy. The worship found many on their face before the Lord in tears and emotion.

This was a new City for us. We had never hosted an outside conference in this area. We have a great relationship with several pastors in this area, and have preached in their churches over the past 15 years. But this was new territory when it comes to ministering to young women. We found that those whose hearts were hungry truly got filled. Many of their lives will never be the same as Jesus filled their hearts.
We thank God for you, our partners who make meetings like these possible by monthly and separate designated gifts. Know that your gifts will never be misused. We are here for the Kingdom of God and to promote salvation through his son Jesus.
