They have a desire to see the Body of Christ love well, to experience true intimacy in marriage, and walk in the destiny God has for them individually and as married couples.

LAM_Gomes

Igor & Shaila Gomes

LAM Ambassadors

Igor and Shaila Gomes attended Love After Marriage for the first time on their 7th year Anniversary, on May 2010. Although they’ve always been involved in serving and loving people and marriages, they were deeply impacted and forever changed by the presence of Holy Spirit, the spiritually practical tools and teachings, and the relationships established in that workshop – which is all still continuing to this day. Together they’ve led many LAM workshops in the South Florida region, ministering to hundreds of couples and creating a Kingdom Culture in that region. They are passionate about helping individuals and couples find freedom and wholeness in God’s perfect love by challenging them to live life, not just with Nothing Hidden, but also in connection with Holy Spirit and one another. By pursuing God’s heart and redemption first for their own marriage and their 3 “amazing, way-ahead-of-their-time” children, they’ve lead LAM from a place of power through vulnerability and are hungry for more!

Hills_20191004

Kelly & Cindy Hill

LAM Ambassadors

Kelly and Cindy Hill first experienced Love After Marriage in 2012, attending a 5-day intensive workshop and have never looked back!  After starting in marriage ministry 25 years ago, their heart’s desire was to see more Holy Spirit-led ministry, and LAM was the perfect fit!  The drive home from Colorado to Kansas City was a blur as they spent hours writing down all that the Lord imparted to them through this workshop. That was the beginning of some incredible ministry they’ve witnessed through LAM impacting individuals, couples and whole families.  Seeing captives set free and released into what the Lord has called them to be is life-changing and energizing!  The Hills have attended additional training with the Byrnes including Spirit Connection & Leadership Training, which they’ve used to minister to couples in their home and in workshops.  They’ve led LAM 1 and LAM 2 workshops, hosted 3.5-day intensives in their home church, and have led 3.5-day intensives in the US and Canada.

Kelly and Cindy have been married for 39 years and have three married children and 7 grandchildren!  They serve in leadership in their church and have established LAM ministry in their local body, which includes weekly workshops, cell groups and married date nights incorporating LAM tools and core values.

LAM_Langlands

Sinclair & Anna Langlands

LAM Ambassadors

Sinclair and Anna (Annie) Langlands have been involved in marriage ministry since 2004; however, in 2010 they attended their first Love After Marriage (LAM) workshop and discovered a new set of “keys and tools” to effective counseling and marriage ministry. Much of what they have learned from LAM has become a lifestyle for their own marriage and family. Sinclair and Ann have served their local church through facilitating LAM workshops and also applying and teaching the LAM tools in numerous counseling sessions. They are eager to see marriages and families find victory and live an exemplary lifestyle that causes others to ask, “How do we get what you have?”

Paul&SueLavier-Pic

Paul & Sue Lavier

LAM Ambassadors

Paul and Sue Lavier have been married since 1978, have raised three children, and have 11 grandchildren. They have served in numerous ministries over the years, including Fellowship of Christian Athletes, high school football chaplain, short-term missions to Argentina and Slovakia, worship team members, staff marriage pastors, small group leaders, and intercessory teams. With a prophetic word in their hearts about helping to heal marriages, they attended a Love After Marriage workshop in 2012. They have since attended more Spirit Connection & Leadership Training with the Byrnes and have established the LAM ministry to couples from around the greater Portland area, and Central Oregon Coast, with LAM 3.5 day, LAM 1 and LAM 2 weekly workshops, LAM home groups, and ministering to couples through Spirit Connection sessions.

Paul and Sue – “God used the LAM ministry to help us get rid of barriers to spiritual, emotional, and physical intimacy by bringing to light and getting rid of beliefs and patterns of interacting with each other that were based on lies from the enemy. LAM firmly established us in the truth of whom God made us to be, gave us tools to maintain connection, and a commitment to pursue and spread the power of loving community. We now enjoy one another deeply and how God blends our unique personalities together with Holy Spirit to bring wholeness to other marriages. He gives us a tremendous love for the couples He brings across our way and a passion to see them experience the joy and strength of true intimacy! In 2011 we were separated for a time and at a loss of what to do…but for God, and how he worked through the ministry of Love After Marriage through loving community and the transformational power of his Holy Spirit, we were healed and reconnected. God truly restored our marriage through the ministry of Love After Marriage.”

In Redding, they had the chance to participate in LAM 2 and visit a Spirit Connection & Leadership Training in the home of Byrnes.

Palsers

Gary & Hilary Palser

NHM Regional Coordinators - South Africa

Gary & Hilary have been happily married since 1982, have three married daughters and five precious grandchildren!  They attended the 5-day Love After Marriage Intensive at Bethel in 2013.

Gary retired from his work as an actuary and Chief Risk Officer for his company at the end of 2015. As part of a plan to be re-fired rather than retired they attended the Spirit Connection Training workshop in January 2016. While at Bethel they met Phil & Ginny Comstock (LAM Ambassadors) and consequently hosted the Comstocks in their home in Cape Town and at a 3.5-day LAM Intensive workshop in their church. After being approved as weekly LAM leaders they facilitated the first weekly LAM workshop in South Africa in the first half of 2017. They were further re-fired through a year at Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry in 2017/18. While there, they attended LAM 2, another Spirit Connection Training and the Deeper Intimacy workshop.

Gary & Hilary have both received inner healing themselves. Gary grew up in a difficult family situation which caused him to build walls around his emotions. He experienced deep inner healing which brought down these walls. Without this healing, Hilary would never have married him, as she is a feeler! In addition to the Spirit Connection training through Nothing Hidden Ministries, they have also received Sozo training; Hilary has introduced and led Sozo in their church.

Gary & Hilary are NHM Regional Coordinators for South Africa. They have a calling to see marriages thrive and are very excited to see how God is using LAM and Spirit Connection to heal and restore marriages.

Roehles

Matthias and Heike Röhle

NHM Regional Coordinators - Switzerland

Originally from Germany, Matthias and Heike came to Switzerland in 2002. They live close to Bern and have been married since 1996. They have three (almost) grown up sons and a foster son.  In 2015, they attended a LAM Workshop in Emmetten, Switzerland led by Barry and Lori Byrne; after this workshop, not only their marriage but also their relationship with God changed significantly.  They have run several LAM 1 and 2 workshops in the Bernese region and are excited to see God working in other marriages too.

 

In their own words – “When we came to the LAM Workshop in Emmetten, we had almost exhausted our own possibilities to save and improve our marriage. Although we wanted to have a fulfilled marriage, we didn’t know how to get there. With respect to our relationship, hopelessness and disappointment were the predominant emotions we were dealing with. Three weeks prior to the workshop, Heike had a dream about our marriage. At the workshop, God used this dream to resolve the deadlock in our marriage and brought healing, new closeness and freedom to our relationship. For us it was a miracle and a new way of experiencing Holy Spirit speaking to us. This experience has changed our marriage and our connection to God in a sustainable manner.”

 

Matthias and Heike are currently serving as the NHM Regional Coordinators in Switzerland. Their vision is to see more married couples and singles in Switzerland get healed and restored by God emotionally, spiritually and sexually, and carry their testimonies to their children, families, churches and communities.
