Ministry Update

Greetings!

I just wanted to get a quick ministry update out. March has not been a good month for me. The first part of the month the weather was not very hospitable for getting out and witnessing and the last part of the month I’ve been sick. Needless to say I’m looking forward to April and the months to come!

To update you on my health, things turned for the worse last about two weeks ago. I started getting sick and I started having g a hard time breathing again. Our team was going to Old Town bar section here in Wichita on St. Patrick’s Day night and I was in bad enough shape by then I couldn’t go with them. I held out through the weekend and on Monday my wife took me to the hospital where I was admitted into ICU with a severe case pneumonia. I was in the hospital all week and was finally released last Friday.

I still have a small amount of pneumonia in my lungs and I’m on oxygen now 24/7 until the pneumonia leaves completely and my lungs heal up. Needless to say it’s hard to hit the streets when you have to drag an oxygen tank around wherever you go and you run out of breath real easy. Right now I can walk around a grocery type store pushing a shopping cart and sucking down oxygen for only about 20 – 30 minutes before I start running out of breath.

I know that right now the enemy is laughing at me thinking he’s taken out one of God’s own ministers of the Gospel but I got news for him. I am going to trust in God to open doors for me to share the Gospel. I will fight through this and find ways to share Jesus with the lost and dying! God didn’t call me to reach the lost and then all of a sudden crawl in a hole and die. That’s not me and it’s not going to happen if I have anything to say about it!

I’ve still got my van that says “Free Money- Just Ask” on it and people are still coming up asking for that free money. Just yesterday I was sitting in a parking lot waiting for my wife and I guy came up and asked for the free money. I gave him a million dollar bill Gospel tract and then I shared the Gospel with him. I know God will open more doors like this as I diligently seek to share the Good News of Jesus Christ!

I’m still going into grocery stores and such passing out million dollar bill Gospel tracts there too. By the way I should add here that I’m about out of tracts. Please pray that the Lord would provide me with more tracts.

Please keep me and my family in prayer as we’re going through a really tough time here. Also, please keep praying that the Lord through His Holy Spirit will continue to heal me and raise me up! Springs here and summer is coming and it’s driving me nuts not being able to really get out and witness! All I’m asking for is for God to heal me so I can win souls for the King!

Thank you for taking your time to read this and thank you for your prayers as I really do need them and I greatly appreciate them!

Be Blessed!!!
