JUNE 2005

Greetings in the precious name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! Diana and I want to thank everyone of you that participated in the outreach to Argentina with your prayers and Missionary gifts. It was a very fruitful trip for the Kingdom of God, but not without challenges. I felt such tremendous warfare there. My coordinator there told me that Argentina is very violent and even dangerous now with the collapse of the economy a few years ago. But my Bible tells me that "the Kingdom of God suffers violence, and the violent take it by force," and that is exactly what Diana and I did. We spent pretty much the entire trip in prayer and fasting, on our faces before the Lord. We know that it's not by our might, or by our power, but by the Spirit of the living God that the Victory is won, and Souls are brought to Him.

Night after night, we saw the faces of hundreds of people coming to the altars in response to our Fathers Love. Many weeping profusely in repentance to our Lord. I can never forget the expressions and tears of those being forgiven and transformed before our very eyes. Yes, I believe that our Salvation is a very visible and tangible thing. To be born again, forgiven and cleansed by the blood of Jesus. Having our sins not only forgiven but forgotten, never to be remembered again by God. Salvation truly is the greatest Miracle this side of Heaven.

We were privileged to minister in 5 different locations, 3 cities and 2 Crusades on this trip to Argentina. All had to be indoor due to the weather turning colder and rain. To my surprise many of the Crusade services that were in the rented Auditoriums, were standing room only. Multiplied thousands heard the Saving, Healing message of our Lord, and again hundreds received a healing touch from our Lord. My translator was from YWAM Ministries were he is serving fulltime. He told me that he had never experienced a Crusade were there were so many people being healed and testifying of it. God was glorified in a great way, and He did not disappoint those who came to receive their miracle. People with pain racked bodies for years, and even those who had surgeries testified of all pain leaving, tumors disappeared, the deaf heard, and many with vision problems were healed and able to read. One outstanding miracle was when a woman that was doubled over literally, and couldn't walk straight up for years was touched by the hand of God, and instantly stood and walked straight.

Only God knows what all actually happened in Argentina. We have been invited to return next year to do even bigger Crusades in 2 cities and are planning on returning probably in March. Please pray for God's blessings on our brothers in Argentina.

By the time you receive this Ministry newsletter, Diana and I will be in San Jose, Costa Rica. This country has been in my heart for years, and now it's time to see what the Lord has in store. We will be in Conferences and Churches this first trip to Costa Rica. Diana and I will be privileged to Minister in what I believe is the largest Church in Costa Rica. They have 18,000 members. We are already talking with the Pastors there about a big Crusade in the future. Please agree with us for God's will and a very fruitful trip for the Kingdom. I am honored to be going with my friend Prophet Bob Anderson, Trebe McGee, and Pastor Rick Bennett of Christ the Rock Church, here in Memphis. TN. They are all tremendous servants of the Lord, and I know God is going to use them greatly for His Kingdom in Costa Rica. Please pray for open heavens over Costa Rica, and for many to come to Christ.

Diana and I are currently coordinating future Crusades for the remainder of the year. Each one promises to be huge, and each one will cost thousands and thousands of dollars. The next Crusade in August will be in Bombamarca, Peru, deep in the Andes Mountains, about 20 hours from the capital. We will be attempting to preach the Gospel to people or tribes who have literally never heard the name of our Jesus before. It's the truth. I am told there has never, I repeat never been a big Evangelistic Crusade in this Mountain City before. We are going to attempt to minister to about 15,000 people in an open-air Crusade there in the Andes of Peru. Will you pray about being a part of this? We simply cannot do this alone. In fact, I can't tell you the burden I feel many times when I think about what the Lord has asked me to do. It's overwhelming. I feel the burden for the lost, and for the finances needed to reach them in the way the Lord has given me with Mass Evangelism. We cannot do this alone. We are ready, willing, and able by the Power of the Holy Spirit to go into all the world.

 
Will you pray about becoming a Missions Partner with this Ministry? I believe that this is good ground, and I have seen first hand what the Lord is doing in the Earth. "HOW SHALL THEY HEAR WITHOUT A PREACHER? AND HOW SHALL THEY PREACH, EXCEPT THEY BE SENT?" Rom. 10:14-15.
