Best of the Best Training Seminars include the following range of programs, pilgrimages, missions and service. You’ll find many to suit your current needs; and you’ll find yourself returning to go deeper through programs you have already completed. God always has so much more for you in these kinds of programs.

1. SONSHIP WITH GOD: Release in your life four things that Jesus cherished: (i) God’s kind of clean heart; (ii) sonship with God, your salvation and freedom from spiritual orphanhood; (iii) the use of Holy Spirit power; and (iv) the power to take Jesus’ spirituality into the world.

2. UPLIFTMENT: Let God restore what life has robbed you of. Let God increase you into a brilliant future. And let God give you stability in the Father at a new and higher level.

3. RENEWAL: Become equipped with a powerful model for making ground-breaking changes in your life using the Mind of Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit;

4. AUTHORITY: Develop the great spiritual authority and have a map of the destiny ahead that God has for you.

5. DESTINY: Letting God mobilize the power of the Mind of Christ in your vocation.

6. PROPHETIC POWER: Having God’s prophetic function operating in your life.

7. HEALING POWER: Having the Holy Spirit power for healing, deliverance and miracles operating in your life.

8. PEACE OF JESUS: Having that special inner peace, stillness and silence in the Father—your inner serenity­—and imparting it to others.

9. THE PERFECT WILL OF GOD: Discovering how to do the will of the Father; and, also, building habitual patterns of behaviour in the doing of the will of the Father.

10. FINANCIAL BREAKTHROUGH: By the power of the Holy Spirit, break out of your financial debt and powerlessness and live renewed with God pouring blessing into your finances.

11. PILGRIMAGE: To greatly supplement your Best of the Best spiritual training and equipping go with Rob on a pilgrimage to Israel, France, Italy, Turkey, or to other nations. Pilgrimages to Israel are often done after the first or second program you complete, as your hunger to know Jesus of Nazareth becomes a furnace of love in your heart.

12. MISSION: Another incredible supplement to your Best of the Best spiritual training and equipping is going with Rob or an RCIM Pastor or Associate on mission for Christ to Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Egypt, Russia, Lithuania, Mongolia, India, Pakistan or other nations;

13. SERVICE: You can further supplement your Best of the Best training and equipping with voluntary service in the Watoto Wamungu (Child of God) orphanage in Uganda, East Africa. Help the kids and mamas, teach, build, pray, worship, love or just be there and have fun.

Remember, Best Of The Best Training Seminars find God taking you to the next level and keeping you there! Try counting the cost of not having all that God has for you and then make the decision to do your Best Of The Best training soon.

Hardback. 4.5” x 6”. 180 Pages. US$11.95
From The Back Cover—

These stories you are about to read in this book are painful, shocking, distressing, and real. All the worst storms we face have a measure of that. But perhaps these stories will speak with inspiration about how to survive the worst storms you have been going through. They will also equip you for helping others who are in difficulty.

Join Rob Crickett for a journey into the world of former child soldiers in Northern Uganda. Touch briefly the dreadful storms that inflicted ghastly suffering on them. Learn how they are breaking through into newness of life with God's help.

This journey glorifies God and His grace, the valour of those who suffered and are suffering so much, and the amazing touch of the men and women who bring Jesus and his undying love to them as a source of real comfort, hope and help.

Dare to read something of their life stories: they will change your life forever. Importantly, the help that God is bringing to the people in this book He can bring to you. And also, through you Jesus Christ can bring much needed help to others all around the world. For the believer, there is nothing impossible for God—there is always hope.

Jesus guarantees that the highest ideals and aims of the human life is the perfect doing of the will of the heavenly Father. Dr. Rob Crickett provides a contemporary living witness of how to survive by only doing the will of the Father. EMploying only the principles given to us from Jesus about the doing of the Father's will, Rob’s powerful new message is on deliberately increasing the measure by which God’s supply comes into your life.
The tough times that challenge our finances, our health or our relationships are always intimidating, uncertain and often painful. They can make us feel alone, threatened and forced to make decisions about which we have no alternatives. Our first response is to pull back and obey the world’s demands—and we lose out.
Jesus tells us to behave differently in the tough times. He calls us to trust God and the power of believing that we have received His new provision. He tells us that God has a way ahead for us to grow and prosper—even that the tough times will deliver us more than before if we will change the measure.
Jesus delivers us into such a tender intimacy with the Father that we discover a new light for our path, effective victory over the tough times, and a new path upon which to walk in joy. What we sow is what we reap. The measure that we use is the exact same measure that measures our supply back to us. Change the measure, he says.
God has got more blessing for you this year than ever. Increasing The Measure shows you step by step how to access it easily and affordably by increasing the measure that provides your supply.

God promises that He has real love for you. Rob’s contemplations and story-telling, from deep within the heart of the Father, impart the assurance of God’s love for you which comes to you through the love He brings to you.

Too often we think of God, believe in God, obey God, listen for God, sing God's praises, do works of God and read God's Word but fail to be in love with God and let Him be in love with us. He sent His Son Jesus to come into the world and it was an act of the highest personal love. It was the promise of His love, fulfilled. It was the assurance of His love, the guarantee that at no time would He ever stop loving us each personally with the most single-minded devotion and care possible in all creation. The greatest love we will ever know is the love of the Spirit of the Father who has come to us because of Christ's work on earth.

God promises that He has real personal and spiritual growth for you. Rob’s contemplations and story-telling, from deep within the heart of the Father, impart the assurance of God’s love for you which comes to you through the growth He brings you.

Every time you get an ah-ha of substance, you have grown. Every time you make it through a dreadful experience and harness courage and strength and morality, you have grown. Every time you suffer and yet find God's will within it all, you grow. And all this growth is endless, life-giving, beautifying, healing, strengthening, equipping and a worthy reflection of God's great love for you. God's love for us is not really grasped until we can test it in those sometimes awfully challenging experiences that produce growth in us. A life without struggle is a life that cannot know God's love. It is the assurance of His love within the situation that gives us the hope for growth and the acquisition of something greater than what we currently possess. The more rugged life we live, therefore, the greater are the challenges and the greater is the growth potential we draw into our own life. An easy life is a curse that robs us of the opportunity to really need the assurance of God's love that produces our personal growth.

God is a Father and He makes you his spiritual son. He removes your spiritual orphanhood and brings you inside the kingdom of heaven. Rob’s contemplations and storytelling, from deep within the heart of the Father, impart the assurance of God’s love for you which comes to you through the sonship He brings.

Rob went searching for the experience of a man who embodied the Eastern religious ideal of spiritual enlightenment—the direct experience of self mind. After he attained that experience but found something still missing God led him to Jesus of Nazareth, Christ. After several more years of journeying, God the Father then manifested to him His personal presence. With the words, "Robert, I am your Father and you are my son," his spiritual orphanhood was utterly swept away. He was free! He was in and of the Father Himself, a son of God, just as Jesus of Nazareth had preached would happen. Rob now knows first hand that the assurance of God's love powerfully removes all obstacles to our personal experience of God. With absolute conviction, that the world can never take away from us, we can say, "God is my Father, and I am His son." "God is my Father, and I am His daughter." Our sonship is the manifestation of the assurance of His love for us.

When you live inside the kingdom of heaven you abide in God, and He in you. Rob’s contemplations and story-telling impart the assurance of God’s love for you which comes to you through the kingdom living He brings.

When we list the greatest things that God has for us we quickly realize that being born again is quite low down on the list. Oh, at the time, it's amazing! It's way up there. It's the most powerful thing we could ever experience. We are literally turned inside-out and made of Godly substance. But It's not the highest that God has for us. Even seeing God, meeting God, being immersed in God to the exclusion of all other consciousness, ultimately shows itself to not be the highest thing that God has for us. What, then, is the highest thing that God has for us? It is living in the assurance of His love whilst we go about our daily life doing the will of the Father in all things meaningful. The greatest satisfaction to ourselves, the greatest satisfaction that pleases the Father, the greatest good we can do, the greatest opportunity God has for doing good in our lives, streams forth in the assurance of His love for us which becomes our doing His will in our ordinary living in the kingdom of heaven. That kingdom is both a realm and a relationship. It is God's will to bring you personally into such intimacy with Him that you can do His will with Him, and He can do your will with you, perfectly. Perfect kingdom living is to do God's will with any person, in any circunstance, in any culture, in any location, at any time. And, because of Jesus Christ, it is totally doable now.

Thanks to the assistance of many people,RCIM in Finland is proud to release 17 new publications in Finnish language. Among them is the long awaited “Walking In Biblical Financial Blessing”. The editions are inexpensive short booklets on plain paper: an ideal format to slip in your pocket on a train trip or to curl up with in front of the fire on a lazy weekend afternoon. As the Lord leads you, these are ideal to give to friends who are hungry for more of God, and strangers to whom you are tenderly and perhaps prayerfully leading to the Lord.

Also, each booklet is copyrighted but I don’t imagine it would take too much to undo the two staples and photocopy a whole lot of them at a copyshop as give-aways at a New Age Fair where young people gather who are hungry for God, or for street evangelism, or for someone who needs healing or salvation. You have my blessing to do that!

You might consider buying any one of these short booklets individually or go for the total collection valued at € 45.20 for a 10% saving at € 40. Shipping, if needed, is extra. Click on the link tpo see the range and then email me at rob@rcim.org to place your order. Payment can be made directly into the Finnish Nordea bank account: 182630-17103 using code 1025 for Books.

It’s nice to have a some booklets in Finnish at last, isn’t it?

This November 2009 will be the eleventh Holy Land Pilgrimage Rob has led.

The dates are November 10-22, 2009 (12 nights). The cost is 1300 euros per person, plus your ticket to and from Israel. In adition you will need spending money. Read all about it below.

If you want to come on this pilgrimage, you must make your reservation with Rob by August 1, 2009. You will be given information about RCIM's cancellation policy

Please note that there are people who want to go on this amazing pilgrimage who cannot afford to go. They are seeking a sponsor. If you are moved by the Lord to sponsor a pilgrim, please let me know early. If you have been on this pilgirimage you'll know how much it will mean to someone who could not have made it without your generous help.

In order to preserve a deeply spiritual environment, all of the accommodation is in Catholic convents in Galilee and Jerusalem. The beds are very comfortable. Rooms generally have ensuite facilities, which are maintained at the highest level of cleanliness.

RCIM hires vehicles for transportation. Drivers are selected from among the pilgrims. Having our own cars gives us immense freedom to go where we want, when we want without the limitations besetting a tour bus.

The numbers on an RCIM pilgrimage have never exceeded 15, including Rob. This provides for an intimate fellowship whilst also allowing for as much individuality and space as one might personally desire.

Israel contains a large number of attractions, and, it seems that the more frequently one visits, those attractions grow in number. RCIM has a base number of attractions that carry a pilgrim along in "the footsteps of Jesus." Should any pilgrim desire to step outside that trail in order to visit other Old Testament sites not scheduled on the pilgrimage, or other interesting sites that don't directly involve Jesus per se, it is easy to accommodate such adjustments to the plans. Additionally, there is one free day in Jerusalem and one free day in Galilee for individualized activities, should the pilgrims so choose...what Rob calls "your free day."
Also of interest to know is that it is possible to be baptized or rededicated in the River Jordan. The site that has been established by the Israeli government is at the south tip of the Sea of Galilee where the Jordan begins is run toward the Dead Sea. You can bring your own robe or hire a plain white robe from the kibbutz owners of the baptismal site.

More detailed information follows below in the Information Sheet given to Pilgrims.

.....a) Flight arrival time;

5) On your departure, the security searching can be very long and you must check in at Tel Aviv airport three hours ahead of time.
6) When planning your flight times Rob suggests taking a flight that arrives into Tel Aviv between 1 - 3pm (13 - 15,00 hours), and departs before 12 noon (12,00 hours).

PASSPORT AND VISA

For all other details in preparing for your pilgrimage please contact Rob directly by email, skype (robcrickett) or phone (+61400991199).

TRANSPORTATION IN ISRAEL
In order to give you the most flexibility and comfort in your travel on the road, RCIM will hire cars for the duration of our pilgrimage. The drivers of the cars will be made up of Rob and other pilgrims. Usually one car will comfortably seat four people.
If you are a driver please bring with you your driving licence and a credit card so that the initial rental agreement is made with your credit card. The car rental companies in Israel will not put more than one vehicle on one credit card when the cars are first rented. When the cars are returned upon completion of our pilgrimage, they are paid for with Rob’s credit card and the other drivers have nothing deducted from their credit cards.

PILGRIMAGE ACCOMMODATION AND FOOD
During this time we will stay in very modern Catholic Convents. They all have good beds, hot showers and the toilet facilities are modern and maintained to the highest standards of hygiene. The convents maintain a Christian atmosphere for us during our travelling around. Israel is a land with Jews, Druze, Muslims and Christians living and working in what is a very secular country. It is very nice to have a Christian environment in which to worship, and to call home for a few days at a time.
The breakfasts provided by the convents are simple but good. You will find that most lunches you will buy will consist of falafel (vegetarian) and shwarma (lamb or chicken) sandwiches. In the evenings we can eat out at good Chinese restaurants in Tiberias and Jerusalem as well as local Palestinian restaurants, or, in either Haifa, Nazareth or Jerusalem, pay the convent extra to provide dinner.

PILGRIMAGE FOCUS
The focus of the pilgrimage Rob provides is on Jesus of Nazareth as we find him in the four Gospels. The pilgrimage also touches on Elijah the prophet but not much other Old Testament Israel.
Also, Rob feels that it is very important for each pilgrim to understand that this is *their* pilgrimage and if there are places that are particularly important to any pilgrim he will do his best to include them in the pilgrimage. Rob really wants each pilgrim to be blessed abundantly, and to make contact with those faith-places that impact them the most. So, please, search your heart and search your Scripture and identify those places that you would love to visit, if you could. You will have some free time in Nazareth and in Jerusalem. At those times you will be able to visit places other than the main ones that Rob has already selected, especially those that are most dear to your heart.

DRESS CODE, WEATHER AND THINGS TO BRING
1) Religious sites require visitors to wear modest dress. No tee shirts or shorts. Dress hems need to be below the knee. No armpits or breast cleavages showing. Women may not be permitted entry into some sites if wearing trousers or jeans … if not wearing a dress then a wrap that looks like a dress needs to be tied around the waist.
2) June to August is summer in Israel and so you will need sun block, sun glasses, a good shady hat and aloe vera for any sunburn. Long sleeved shirts and even an umbrella are very good and popular protection.
3) Bring appropriate shoes for walking but not hiking.
4) Bring a knapsack or backpack for carrying things like your water, camera, wallet, skirt or wrap etc. So as to have protection against pickpockets and thieves, in the market places, people often wear their backpack on their front and not their back.
5) If you bring a camera, make sure you have enough film or digital cards, or are prepared to buy more in Israel. If you intend to download them onto Rob’s computer make sure that your camera is compatible with a MAC and that you include the download wire from your camera to a computer.
6) Some people like to bring a journal and pen to write their thoughts and prayers each day.
7) Some people leave home with a list of duty-free items they want to bring back home.
8) The weather in Israel in June is often averaging 28 Celsius (75 F ) with warm balmy evenings that are warmer around the Sea of Galilee than Jerusalem, and no rain. The weather in November-December is much cooler, around 18 – 22 Celsius.
9) Israel electricity is 210-220 volts, the same as in Australia and Europe but not the USA, Canada and Mexico which have 110 volts.

PERSONAL SAFETY
The pilgrimage sites are usually wholly free of contact with the Jewish-Muslim violence and war that is almost all that some people get to see of Israel on television. The events of Gaza and the West Bank are quite removed from the places we visit. Whilst Rob has made seven previous pilgrimages to Israel and has never yet brushed with the war in any way, and although every precaution is taken to ensure your safety, Rob cannot guarantee your travel safety and so he urges you to take out effective travel insurance. If this pilgrimage is like the previous ones that he has undertaken with people just like you, you will feel safe and relatively comfortable throughout.

THE MISSION
- Yes the facts are dreadful and overwhelming ... but ...
- any change in consciousness to Africans has a huge impact on Africa and the world.
- Growing orphaned Africans into a consciousness of global leadership does change things for the better.
- African Kids Foundation follows the famous Watoto style of community development in Uganda, in which four boys and four girls are housed with one mama. A number of such houses form one village. A father figure, for life, stays each weekend. We have named our home Watoto Wamungu, which means Child of God.
- The AKF Mission is to give kids Christian love and to help them to develop as leaders who will love the needy and bring healthy and creative solutions to Africa and the world.
- Mindful that, "Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me, and whoever receives me, receives not me but Him who sent me," African Kids Foundation has the following mission:
.................................In the imitation of Christ, to care for disadvantaged children.

- African Kids Foundation is incorporated in Australia as a charitable, not-for-profit organisation for the purpose of providing Christian international relief and development with a special interest in AIDS-generated orphans.
- Donations, including child sponsorships, over $2 are tax-deductible in Australia. In the United States of America, Rev. Dr. Crickett's ministry, RCIM partners with AKF. RCIM is a 501(c)3 church and donations can receive tax benefits in the USA.

SUPPORTING WATOTO WAMUNGU
AKF has never wanted to develop unhealthy dependency by the Ugandan situation on Western aid. From the beginning AKF has had a policy to help in the development of business venture so that Watoto Wamungu can be self-sufficient. This policy supports our desire to teach the children how to stand and build on a good foundation. All western donations are considered to be a means to an end so that everyone in Watoto Wamungu is able to become free-standing, empowered and carrying vision for financial independence from foreign aid.

When you want to make a donation to the African Kids Foundation program, Watoto Wamungu, to help us to gain that independence and avoid unhealthy dependence, please consider thefollowing examples in Program Development:
[... ] $500 to purchase educational resources;
[... ] $1,000 to purchase medical supplies;
[... ] $1,000 to purchase livestock and their stalls;
[... ] $1500 to purchase one acre of land (we currently need 50 acres);
[... ] $5,000 for a fish farm and other income-generating material;
[... ] $50,000 to purchase a bus;
[... ] A quarterly donation for any purpose;
[... ] A one-time gift for any purpose.

Sponsors like you make a world of difference when contributing to the development of our
Watoto Wamungu Village — the village for God's children.
As one little boy said to me: "Thank you so much! Your help give me hope."
