Good Morning every one across the islands of Hawaii our town of Hilo and the rest of the world, I don’t know how many countries have asked us for permission for prayers or parts of any of the sermons so they can spread the Good News, that is my whole idea, as a very sick man living a life of Job that is really the only explanation that makes sense and it has been getting close to 5 years now the Church has been open, the website part, I wanted a Mission downtown, now I live a good 12 blocks from downtown, the sickness started on November 13th 2003, and things have been added to my physical makeup, and My faith is still strong, my love for Jesus has not changed, or my love with the Father and the Holy Spirit. My love for people has gotten stronger, because reading all the prayer requests you learn to care for more and more people, an understand their feelings, the thing also is Bishop Paul with leukemia and our Bishop secretary Keith with a hernia type operation and a long surgery, healing prayers are going out for Paul and his wife Mercy and the three little ones, plus prayers are going up for Keith and his surgery and fast healing, they had to sew each leg muscle back together, I can’t forget my good friend Randy- he died of a heart attack just from walking home, and he was in good physical shape, what a shock, and I miss him and his partner who used to be our secretary, but she had so many attacks, and her folks both have bad health problems and the prayers go out for her and Randy and their families daily, she was so shocked by Randy’s death she was hurt very bad inside, then she gets hit with her parents , having health problems at two different areas, so from all the health problems, and the love she has for her family and then Randy just died and they worked together for years in the same hospital were prayer partners then for such a long time. Randy and Joanna were the best prayer partners I ever had, we would have three way calling with prayer, she would pray so hard for me I could feel better just from listening to her on the phone and plus the beautiful prayers she would say, the words and just the way she explained everything, with different tones of mercy and hope with power and strength, she helped so many people with her prayers the same with Randy, I put up a memorial for Randy on one of the friends pages, he was on the prayer boards everyday, praying for so many others, that is why his death came to such a shock to all of us. I miss the three way calls, I miss them both, they were very close to my heart, this was two people that I really cared for, and loved. I am sending out healing prayers for Joanna’s parents with true hope of healing and I am not going to stop. I have to get a hold of Jacob and Daisy and Joaquim and his wife, Paul and Mercy, Keith's wife died in his arms from terminal cancer, and he sat and stayed with her everyday for more then a month, plus Johan and Esther, who run a mission in South Africa- Johan has saved my spiritual self by writing to me everyday- I wrote them all last week but my email is still not working correctly, so I hope they all know my love and prayers are with them all, plus their children, plus Craig and Linda and their children, Robert and Judy, and their children, plus we still are praying for Mike and Joe and Larry, Pastor Bill, Pastor Dan, Pastor Terry, and their families, I think and pray for them all- any chance I get, Rebecca who took care of my cat for a while, she needs to be blessed the way she has suffered, and Kenny I worked the food bank for 2 years, feeding the poor, we were best of friends plus Gladis his wife- and all his children and grandchildren. I miss a lot of people, from back east, and I care and love so many people here, there is no room for any bad feelings for anyone. I pray I will soon get a hold of all the people I have not been able to talk to. That God will fix the email and my feelings getting stressed out when it does not work right. It hurts when I can’t even talk to anyone face to face, Keith got his phone shut off because the surgery was so long, and I have to use his sister’s phone. Hugh Keith, a captain or a leader in a special Chaplains organization, and our main ministry I met 4-5 years ago, he just talked to me for about a good hour or more today and the other day, he cares- and I think he is worried about me and this infection that just does not go away. He knows my heart and he knows my life, and what has happened to it. I pray I will get better enough to work on more communication with The Church staff and members, people like Kennedy and Mary who have a church and a ministry in Africa, and they are spreading the word and healing the sick, plus counseling the poor. Eric Lewis called out of the blue and made my day, it seems God is answering my prayers so I don’t feel so alone. Bless you all! I have to talk to Jacob and Joaquim, Paul and Keith I am going to set up or call them once I get or hope I get that government check that they are giving out to poor people this month. Each day- I am trying to live without sin, and it is very hard, I keep smashing my toes on the stuff still unpacked, and let go a few words of pain. I am trying to get closer to the Father so I can become more like Jesus. Then the attacks come, and I end up in tears, and I end up just staying in prayer that is the only way I can stay comforted. Love is the key to all things, I wish I could send my mother a wonderful gift for mothers day, but I will call her on Sunday like I do every Sunday, but tomorrow is Mothers Day, I wish I could send flowers or something, she well deserves it, something special, maybe after I get some extra money, I can send her something. I was going to call Keith R. today but I think he is still in the hospital, and Tony has called me about 3-4 times and some how when the messages were full I went through them yesterday and most of the messages I never even heard, so there is something wrong with one of the phones it does not blink when you get a message. More attacks, I am blessed to have someone like Tony call and care, and it was about Jacob and Daisy also, and I think Joaquim even called but I could not understand what was said, and I played the messages for about 2 hours yesterday, because I couldn’t get the call back numbers, and a woman called for help from Jordan that her kids need food and help, she called like 3 times, and she didn’t leave a number, and I couldn’t help her anyway, all I  could do is pray for her, sometimes I just start praying in the middle of the night, till I fall asleep, I used to do that when I used to be able to write all the lists of prayers, and I would wake up and the list would still be on my chest in the morning. There are many people I care about and pray for that doesn’t even know that I am still praying for them. God knows- it makes a difference, I just need to pray more, and I want to see Christ or at lest His shadow of white, that happened twice to me already. I want to get out there and pray on people, just standing on Kam. Ave and wait for people who are down and out, or carrying a backpack to pass me by. I can almost walk to the hospital and pray for people in the waiting room. I am getting the living area set up- the alter is set-up- and the angels are up- the crosses are here and there. Soon I can put a-add in the paper for spiritual healing, once I get the place freshened up and arranged right. I am going to need two strong men at one time to switch out the coffee table and the two end tables. So maybe that will happen any day, or I get a visit from my computer friend, and he can look at the email section of the computer. If I was only strong enough, I am exhausted now because I had to walk downtown and back for my prescriptions yesterday which was Friday, I got a free Bus ride to the post office, I never knew that was going on. He only comes by late once at 3 P.M. though. That was a blessing, but walking up the hill is hard, but I made it, but then my feet hurt for hours, maybe I need a new pair of shoes. I just want to feel better, or stronger, I am so weak all I can do is I can lay on my back and rest and read my Christian library. And I am praying during the course of the day.
Opening Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, Thank you for another day of life, and another day that we can worship You in spirit and in truth, we do all love You, and please forgive us of our sins, I am a sinner Lord, and I ask for Your forgiveness, that I go on with this suffering, and I get attacked by the element of dread at times, but I know in my heart that it is only another way to open the door for the evil one, so as I shut the door again to darkness, we must submit all things to You, and trust in You, for true healing and I do thank You once again that I am able to preach this sermon and open our hearts to the true light of You Father, with rainbows and sunshine, and the gift of health, joy and happiness. I know we all go through tests and trials, and they all make us stronger and I know You are never going to leave us, or forsake us, Please grant Your Holy Spirit to come upon us all and feel the presence of You O’Lord. We can do nothing on our own, we can only depend on You Father, and Your Son, and the Holy Spirit, the three in one, and the one in three.
Because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, for this reason, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me--to keep me from exalting myself!
Concerning this I implored the Lord three times that it might leave me.
And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.
  Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ's sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong. (2Cor.12:7-10 NASB)

Thorn in the flesh- Greek word for (skolops), basically in today’s interpretation a splinter thorn stake or some sort of a sharp wooden shaft. in some texts sliver. Because of the many false teachers in Corinth, Paul did share his experience with the others about the “third Heaven” So during this time and most anytime we are discussing physical ailments, but it has to be pride to me, why would our Lord have some man of great value have a burden that would hurt or not make clear the teachings of God and His ministry, it would not make sense to me, the eye disease comes from Gal 4:13-15 ( ophthalmia-Greek) where the Galatians here would have given him there own eyes for the completion of his work and ministry, and it also confirms in Gal 6:11 that he wrote in such large print, which would make sense for a person with eye trouble but why would that be the only scripture, it means a lot more to be analyzed. Another theory is the messenger of Satan it could have nothing to do with any physical ailment, Paul did see the paradise of the Lord the third heaven, and God didn’t want him to boast about it, the first heaven is were the bird and the eagle flies, the second heaven is the stars the moon and where the constellations are, and the third, is heaven, is where our great creator lives along with Jesus sitting at his right. There are so many theories concerning this thorn in the flesh it could be as simple as the remorse of what Paul has done for the persecuting of the people of the Church. There are so many other physical ailments; there is really no need to list them all, like I said before I think it was pride.
A Mother’s Day

Text: 1 Samuel 1
Now there was a certain man of Ramathaimzophim, of mount Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephrathite: And he had two wives; the name of the one was Hannah, and the name of the other Peninnah: and Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children. And this man went up out of his city yearly to worship and to sacrifice unto the LORD of hosts in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the LORD, were there. And when the time was that Elkanah offered, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions: But unto Hannah he gave a worthy portion; for he loved Hannah: but the LORD had shut up her womb. And her adversary also provoked her sore, for to make her fret, because the LORD had shut up her womb. And as he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of the LORD, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and did not eat. Then said Elkanah her husband to her, Hannah, why weepest thou? and why eatest thou not? and why is thy heart grieved? am not I better to thee than ten sons? So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk. Now Eli the priest sat upon a seat by a post of the temple of the LORD. And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto the LORD, and wept sore. And she vowed a vow, and said, O LORD of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the LORD all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head. And it came to pass, as she continued praying before the LORD, that Eli marked her mouth. (1 Samuel 1:1 – 12 KJV)

And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.
But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.
And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.
Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour." (Matt. 15:21-28 KJV)

A Mother's Faith

Text: Mat. 15:21 - 28

Then Jesus answered and said unto her, 0 woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.—Matthew 15:28.
The Word of God places strong emphasis on faith. Salvation is by faith in Christ: "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life. . .
Not only are we saved by faith, but we are exhorted to walk by faith and not by sight.
Victorious living is accomplished by faith: "For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith" (I John 5:4).
Jesus said great blessings belong to those who have faith: "If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth."
In our prayer life we must have faith: ". . .let him ask in faith, nothing wavering Yes, faith is the indispensable element in our relationship to God.
The writer of Hebrews declares: "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him (11:6).
The story of a mother s faith is before us in our Scripture reading. Here is a divine record of the accomplishment of faith. The story is given in three parts.

I. A MOTHER'S TROUBLE

The trouble of a child is a mother's trouble. This woman of Syrophoenicia had a daughter "vexed with a devil," a trouble of the worst sort.
Though the child had a terrible sickness, the mother loved her daughter still. Afflictions do not dissolve affections. Rather, often affection grows when there is trouble.
In trouble the mother turned to Jesus.
It is always wise to turn to the Saviour in the hour of trouble.
The heart cry of this mother is given in verse 25, "Lord, help me."
In her need she prayed to the point. She experienced no difficulty in expressing her need and heart's desire.
Mother's prayers are often heard because they pray as true intercessors, identifying themselves with their children.
And so we see a mother in serious trouble—her child was sick. It was wise for this mother to turn to Jesus.

II. A MOTHER'S TESTING

This mother had a great faith, but she faced great testing. She made her cry to Jesus, but the answer did not come at once. There were many things to test her faith.
1. The Lord' s silence. She cried unto Him saying, "Have mercy on me, 0 Lord, thou Son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil."
The record say's "he answered her not a word."
His silence was not unconcern. He was testing her faith, as was sometimes our Lord's method. Remember how He put clay on the blind man's eyes and told him to go and wash in the pool of Siloam. Jesus could have healed with a word, but He believed in giving a test to the faith.
The Lord sometimes delays His answers to our prayers in order to test, then to establish our faith.
It was so with Mary and Martha when their brother Lazarus died. Jesus delayed, and they wondered at His absence and silence. But finally He appeared and brought a great blessing.
2. Discourtesy of the disciples. "And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us."
Between the silence of Jesus and the lack of compassion of His followers, her faith was severely tested.
The conduct of many of the Lord's disciples is more likely to drive away than to attract.
The disciples did not understand the Lord's silence, and they thought that He did not care. Though they had been with Him for three years, they still did not know much about Jesus.

III. A MOTHER'S TRIUMPH

Faith gives the victory. Nothing stopped this mother. She had faith in Christ and persistence to keep knocking at the door.
This woman possessed two wonderful characteristics: humility and faith.
She was willing to take a humble place, and her faith was unwavering.
In the end she received more than she asked for. She was commended by the Lord for her faith: "0 woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. . . ."
Her story of faith is written down for the whole world to read. Jesus did not commend her for her arguments, her patience nor her love, but for her faith.
Finally, she was rewarded by the healing of her daughter:
"And her daughter was made whole from that very hour." Her prayer was answered, her faith rewarded.
We need more mothers who will bring Him their troubles and needs, then there would be more sons and daughters saved.
Here is real encouragement for mothers who have prayed long and earnestly for their children. Though the years have gone by, don't be discouraged—silence is not unconcern.
Jesus kept this mother waiting, but His grant was above her expectations.
Faith was the key that unlocked the blessings which she needed.
Mother's continue to pray for that son and daughter who are still walking in the ways of sin.
Be not weary in well doing, for in due season you will reap if you faint not.

“A Mother’s Love”

Text: Exodus 2:1 – 10 “And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi. 2And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months. 3And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child therein; and she laid it in the flags by the river’s brink. 4And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him. 5And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river’s side; and when she saw the ark among the flags, she sent her maid to fetch it. 6And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews’ children. 7Then said his sister to Pharaoh’s daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee? 8And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child’s mother. 9And Pharaoh’s daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the woman took the child, and nursed it. 10And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the water.”

Different views of Mom:
4 YEARS OF AGE ~ My Mommy can do anything!
8 YEARS OF AGE ~ My Mom knows a lot! A whole lot!
12 YEARS OF AGE ~ My Mother doesn’t really know quite everything.
14 YEARS OF AGE ~ Mom…duh!
16 YEARS OF AGE ~ My mom? She’s like, so “not cool”.
18 YEARS OF AGE ~ That old woman? She’s way out of touch!
25 YEARS OF AGE ~ Well, she might know a little bit about it.
35 YEARS OF AGE ~ Before we decide, let’s get Mom’s opinion.
45 YEARS OF AGE ~ Wonder what Mom thinks about it?
65 YEARS OF AGE ~ Wish I could talk it over with Mom.

We have an interesting story in our text today, where a mother is paid for taking care of her own child. From that I want to emphasize to you that you will also be paid for rearing your children. Let’s look further at this text.

I. The Planning – vv.  And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi. And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months. And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child therein; and she laid it in the flags by the river's brink. And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him. (Ex. 2:1-4 KJV).

A. She planned to be a Godly woman
1. Daughter of Levi
- Married a man from tribe LEVI [PRIESTLY TRIBE]
2. Not afraid of the king
B. She planned to raise Godly children
1. She hid the child - a plan
2. She planned the Ark.
Many moms get a plan from the Lord and so did Moses’ mother.
Application
1. What plans are you making?
2. Are you a godly mother?
3. Are your plans godly plans?
II. The Protection. Ex. vv. 3, 4, 7

Mothers have protected us in many ways.

A. Protected by … The Bonding. Ex. V. 3a
They have protected us physically and kept us from danger.
B. Protected by … The Building [the Ark] Ex. V. 3b
Mothers have protected us morally by teaching us right from wrong.
C. Protected by … The Launch of the Ark. Ex. V. 3c
Many times they have also protected us emotionally by keeping us from things they knew would hurt us.
Mothers have also protected our spirits and brought us up to love and serve the Lord.
Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
III. The Payment.   Blessed are those who are generous,
     because they feed the poor. (Prov. V. 9 KJV)
-All parents receive wages.
The Blessings – 1st Time Walking - Graduating
-Notice her wages in the life of Moses.
1. Refused to be called son of Pharaoh’s daughter. V. 24
2. Choose pain vs pleasure. V. 25
3. Choose the reproach of Christ.  V. 26
4. Left Egypt. V. 27

1.Susan Jones - I have not heard from her in a while, she probably got all her mail bounce back when the computer was down.  Susan still cares and I still care and between us both we will kick this infection along with Johan and all his prayers and emails. Susan is having some medical problems I am pretty sure. I will pray all I have for this girl, she has helped me through the years and I owe it to her to bring her a blessing from the Lord, We have grown close to God together. I need to write her to see how she is doing. I need to find the right email she has changed it so many times, I am getting returns I have to find the latest email which may be gone or buried when the emails got all corupted. Sunday's I am exhausted from doing the sermon and getting up and down, so I can write, plus a good 20-24 hours of typing, that is only shortened by the times I have to get up and lay down and straighten out my back all through the night. I owe her a prayer letter and I am worried about her.

2. Johan & Esther, with children Anneke, Jolene, and baby Simeon- Deo Valente Mission- South Africa. Johan has blessed me over and over with emails. He was sending me about 4-5 a day and he is not giving up on me he wants me healed and he believes in me and the Lord. Johan has out done himself -he still is sending me a few emails a day on healing and faith, he is an amazing man. Johan seems to be in some financial trouble and we all need to pray for his mission, he is taking care of 350+ people and they all need to be feed, and helped, I ask the angels in heaven to stand by and help this whole group. Johan has done more for me then anyone human on this website- he has kept me alive, he still writes to me with scriptures for healing and all kinds of stories on healing. And I have not written him back for a good while but he understands how sick I really am, but I wrote him just the other day, and thanked him.

3. Marcella- Living Waters Disciples Prayer Ministry- Marcella is special- she spends hours upon hours praying for people and for me, she is a blessing. I don't know how she stays on line all the time she must be like I was morning and all through the night, praying for so many others, she is a blessing to so many others, I pray I can do more- but I have many of the people on her list now on my list and they are being verbally prayed for-which is about all I can do.

4. Willy and Liz- Local Best friends- Liz saved my life taking me to the pharmacy, and to a few places to pay my bills, and to pick up a few things at the market months ago. I needed to talk to Willie he is like my best friend locally. Willie is a solid good man and he is always there for me, he brought me over some vitamins that I needed, that was a blessing, to help keep me alive, I have been getting sick for more then three weeks, now it is over, and I am wondering what is going on with my body. I weigh 114.8 with clothes on, see what stress and being sick can do. I have not weighed 114 since I was 12-13. Thank God for Willie, he took me to a new church and bought me a bowl of soup after, all we talked about is the Lord and the bible. I thank them both, I could have had a heart attack just the other day carrying a back pack, with things from the store, and I couldn't carry all the bottles of medicine they were just too heavy. When Willie took me to church, he thought I gave up on The Church, the both computers were broken so I didn't stay up all night and I was glad to go, now that I am writing sermons again I can't do both, I am obligated to a world wide audience, that uses my sermons for their own congregations, or Sunday school topics, or simple devotions. Willie thinks I don't want to go to his church anymore, he was let down when I told him not to pick me up, I need the fellowship more then most, and just to get out of the house would be a blessing. I don't know what he thinks now, and he thinks I just don't want to go to his church, but I showed up 2 weeks ago, he does not realize that I can't physically go. So here I get hurt and even sicker because of a broken heart. I wish people would understand how I fight the devil just sitting up all night and share the Good News with the world. Some people just don't understand how sick I am, and how so little local people care, or call me on the phone or invite me to somewhere when I can like Wednesday though Friday. My Church office is like a  prison, and I sleep on the couch all day, everyday, walking to the store which is 4 blocks away is almost impossible now. Willie and Liz came over to help me the other day, so they had a tuff time with my desk, we all did, it ended up breaking- but I put it back together, I know they still care when they left me a few things at the back door. They still get prayed for and I still love them.

5. Karen -  Local Elder Region 2- I sent a prayer letter to Karen, with a hi to Alicea, it has been a while. I feel better now and the computer is working so far about a few days. Those three weeks of sickness was the hardest part of my life. Lately I sent in a prayer request and like a New Years Thank you to all the people listed which is Karen, Alicea, Walter,Sen. Pastor Fred and Suzanne, Eric and family, Tony Z and his trip, Bishop Larry, Fred and Shirl, Hugh Keith and family, Darla, Keith Ratcliff who has suffered a bad injury and he will be under the knife and being sown up every muscle in his groan. I need to sit down and write a letter to everyone, but I want to be healed in some way, or it will sound like I am complaining, I need to bear with what ever I have to face. Everyone is getting prayed for and cared for in my heart, but I just am so sick still.

6. Walter  -Regional Elder Region 2, I am praying and I need to write a prayer letter and introduce myself. I think I did write an email, prayers are with him. I still pray for everyone, I go down the list and hit everyone with a blessing.

7. Bishop Alicea Region 2  Just wrote Karen back with prayer and told her to say hi to Alicea. I also need to write to Alicea, I need to introduce myself to Walter, I have been so sick lately I do not even mess with the computer at times, for weeks it didn't turn on.  Then I was over quota because I couldn't get to the computer to work, then I was to sick to write anyone for 3 weeks and then one day it just went on, and I am too poor now to send it to the shop. I had to spend days deleting all the trash mail that people send me. I must have had a hundred fake lottery emails, and another hundred that want to donate millions with all the same story almost. Then all the prayer requests.Then I lost the whole c-Drive (2 years of data) first, then after that the computer would not work.Then it started to work again, that is how I am able to do today's sermon and last weeks, but now I will sleep till Tuesday, and I don't know how I will feel. I hope everyone understands.

8. Senior Pastor Fred and Suzanne- Kansas I wrote into the boards last week and sent in a poem the other day and Bishop Larry wrote me about buying some things in the Internet store.  I think Suzanne is better, and doing ok, I didn't read any bad news on the boards. I sent in a prayer for myself, and to let people know that I am still sick, but my faith is building so I want to be healed of all the things wrong with me. It is a battle against faith and sickness. Sometimes it does worry me, when I can't do certain things like I used to.

9. Eric Lewis and wife- in California I need to write to Eric, I know he sent something a few months ago but I am not sure I just need to take a healthy day and write everyone. I did talk and pray with him on the phone a while back, maybe a few weeks. We talked for a long time. I need to call again.

10. Tony Z. and his wife wrote me I guess they are still around, they sent me their picture so I need to get back to them, maybe I can call now.  Please help me pray for all of them . I hope everyone is doing OK?

11. Larry- Bishop Larry is another good friend in the ministry, that I need to write more often along with Jacob, they are both so kind to do the things they have done for me.

Hugh has been so close to me out of the ministry, I need to call him or write him. Thanks for another letter, and the Easter card and Christmas card I called to thank you, I will call again. He has sent me many letters in the regular mail, that is how I got to know one of my Bishop Directors, he wrote so many wonderful letters, I wanted him on staff. In fact if Vijay does not answer I will ask Hugh for an extra Director He just sent me a beautiful card again, what a guy. So now Vijay is no longer a Bishop Director so I will ask Keith Radcliff, it may be late because I had to make the changes before the first of the year. I still can add Hugh later. He and his family are getting prayer.

14. Darla Izzo and children – California- Darla was in Hawaii and she left my numbers at home so I will give her my address next time. Same with Darla, and her kids they all need prayer, she lost her husband more than a year ago, I wish I could write more, it is this sickness, and I am so weak I don't even go outside. That is why it takes me two days to do this sermon, and I am pushing myself to do this, but I care for everyone and pray for most everyone I know.

15. Keith Ratcliff -Amarillo, Texas- Our new Bishop Secretary- for T.C.M.-Good Friend- He is a real good friend, that has been taken care of- we have had the best communication then anyone, and he says whenever you need- to call, to talk to someone, don't hesitate anytime, I will talk- that is a friend. Keith is a good man and I need to write or call him about his website. He has been a Life saver, and a comforter. He might have saved my life a few times, not just once, there were times there I couldn't hold anything down. And he helped me through it over the phone by constant prayer from 2 to 4 hours- Now he is going through surgery to sew up every muscle in his groan. The mucels are hanging down by his knee. He is such a good man, he lost his wife in his arms over a year ago, but he had a bad surgery to go through like 10 days or more, now I will call the house today and talk to his mom.

16. Bishop Director Joaquim Kalala and his wife- T.C.M. –Angola, Africa. He is a good man, they are all blessed and gifted-----but he helped me when I needed the help with the prayer ministry, it seems he enjoyed helping me, answering prayer requests, and he had a change in his life, and got closer to God. I need to write all my Bishops and tell them we are still on line hanging by a shoe string. I need to contact him again and send him the paper-work (Bi-Laws)if I can get the scanner to work, and get some money to buy some ink. Or if I had the combination machine working I probably could scan the paperwork and send it. That is my next project. Fix the scanner. I have tried but I can not test the machine without ink. Father please help me help Joaquim with prayer for him and his family.

17. Lillian Beal - Minister- Friend -We used to communicate a lot- but not much any more. I need to write her and see how she is doing, the thing is when I am done with this I will not be able to write anyone till at least Tuesday, my body just can't handle it, like when people say come on over, that is almost impossible, unless it is a good day. Near the end of the week. I wish people would just understand how sick I am, and I don't even know what is wrong..There are days I can't move, I just rest, that is all I can do, this past week has been hard 3 days I had to leave and walk and hitch-hike.

18. Bishop Director Paul- T.C.M.- wife Mercy, kids- Lesly, Hepzy, Belsy (Pastor:Director: Salem Voice Ministries) India. I have sent many emails of prayer to the family and to and for the ministry, Paul is a lot like me when I was healthy.I have to send Bishop Paul a letter of prayer he needs it with his family, so many things are going on there and they are not good, he does so much for people, he does the work of about 10 missionaries, he and the family need prayer, I just found out that he has picked up leukemia please Lord protect them- and comfort them- and help them all. My white blood cell count is always high, it seems to be fighting off an infection, what kind is still unknown. That is a major prayer- for the whole family ever since I found out, and his ministry is having a hard time without him, That is one that I think about everyday. I know he will be healed, he is to good of a man to suffer.

19. Joanna- Prayer partner and I have made several calls and a few emails but I heard they are having trouble at there job, her mother and father came up with cancer at the same time in 2 different places. Prayer is a beautiful thing, at times I just lay down and pray for those two. Joanna, is not the same because Randy just died about 5 months ago, I wrote about Randy in many areas, there is a memorial on one of the friends pages, he was so important to me and I really loved them both, and we used to have 3 -way prayer calls. He had just a heart attack waking home, no warning, just happened suddenly. I have to communicate with everyone, alI I can do is keep praying for Joanna and Randy and there families and friends plus Joanna's Mom and Dad's health and a complete healing. I used to take the names and sometimes the stories off Randy's prayers on the boards and add them on my main list.- They both are dear to my heart, we have been Prayer partners for over 4 years now he will always remain a bother to me, and Joanna a sister. Please Bless them both Lord. And help Joanna with the job without Randy being there, when Randy died Joanna changed, she will not write much anymore, and I know what the reason is, [Randy] she really cared for him. I have always loved them both, we had many prayer calls. And Joanna has always prayed for me on the phone for the past 4 years. Joanna has helped my life weather she knows it or not, she might have even saved my life one of those nights I was shaking and ready for a heart attack or a stroke.

21.  Vijay - - India. He was a good friend and he wrote me so many letters in the mail, I can't get a hold of him and we need to communicate, he was one of my Bishop Directors, but I had to change the list before the end of December 31st.

I still don't know why the eviction, we care so- I don't understand why they gave me time limits to get rid of a cat that is loved and put me through the hardest part of my life, I was getting sick every morning, and could not hold down any food, because of the stress I lost 10 lbs easy and I am still losing weight, it was just to much for me as sick as I was, to move and not be able to even pack- talk on the phone-, or even carry anything. It was almost impossible, but then again the last minute God comes to the rescue with family type friends.

41. Mr. and Mrs. Sakai and their two sons, which I love so much. I miss my little buddy, one of the sons. And they are prayed for a lot now, it is a sorry situation. But prayer can help everyone.

Plus they knew I didn't even drive anymore, I love them all, and they are prayed for everyday, with full love and compassion. We had a wonderful friendship, and the devil almost destoyed the Church, the prayer ministry, and some of the weeks of the sermons, which effected many people all over the world. They still remain close to my heart with love and care.

42. Alexander-India-He got his whole congregation together and prayed for my health, with a picture of me they hung up, so each person could pray for someone they know what they looked like- then he got shipped off to a new job right in the middle of India. Don't know where Al is-- he is alone doing some project. But he is another daily prayer person- like Lillian. I wonder if he is still alive, a Christian in the middle of India with no friends is very dangerous, Lord please help him communicate. I did get an email from him and he was glad to here from me. I send him all the blessings I have to give.

43. Debbie and her son Aaron- Pennsylvania, I have heard from Debby, but there is still no change for Aaron's release maybe there is some chance with doctors for good news for Aaron getting out, we all are still praying for his release.

I need to sit down and talk to them, and share the gifts I have. They don't even know my gifts God has given me, and the education I have had.

45. Brett - best surgeon in Hilo, I found out he is back, but all the numbers don't answer like he came and went, from like a mash unit in Iraq, and Hilo is light on surgeons, Brett is gone or I just can't find him. He is getting prayer for his family and friends. I had to be carefull moving, I lost 10 lbs over all of this stress. If he heard what I had to do and what I weigh, he would do something, risking someones health over a cat.

46. Herbert , Mr. Kirby of Hilo Dalily prayer for the sons and whole family. He gave me a good deal on a old Kirby. Please bless the family.

47. Pastor George- and wife, Daily prayer every day, plus the children and blessings on the whole congregation. Pastor George has always been one of my best friends along with Pastor Rob. George sat with me during all that pick line theropy and giving myself the bags of antibiotics. And we always had a bible discusion during the days he was always there, then he got that full time job, I just didn't get to see him any more. Niether one knows how sick I am. He does not even know I moved or really how sick I am. The next step is a nursing home, and I am not looking foward to that.

48. Pastor Rob and his wife Susie- and the congregation, I truley miss Rob we need to get back together and fellowship- I am too sick to make it to the Sunday service, but he has no idea I am still sick, people think if you are dressed and look clean that you are doing OK, but that isn't the case I am sick the whole next day, I would like to go but my body can't handle it.  The same with George, Rob- he is also an electrition and he has so many jobs ahead with all his bids, he had to stop coming over. He got so backed up because of the weather, plus Susie had to help him many times on his jobs. My prayers and love are with them both, the same with George and his wife and family.

She really stands out, she has the care and the love and the intelligence. Please I ask for prayers for the whole pharmacy, Annette is  always happy and asking me how I feel, with full compassion. I have not seen her in a while. I hope she is doing OK. Plus we have Sherry, Mel, Michael and Terry, and a few I know- but don't remember their names . Everyone has been helpful. I still see everyone the same way, and they all care about people. I pray for Shannon and ask God to bless her for all that she has done for me, plus for Mel he seems concered about me now, he has watched me loose so much weight and just get sicker and sicker, the same with the rest of the staff, my prayers are with them all, and I ask God for a blessing for each one of them.

52. Dr. Conner has always been close to my heart, and we have prayed together for many years now, she is so special to me, she cares and wants me better, she and the staff are so close now and they are being prayed for always and the doctor's mom Ethel.

Mother Ethel We have a constant “Prayer for healing ”we have been praying for Ethel for almost a year now and we are still are at it daily, last I heard she is doing better, I know it hurts Dr. Conner to see her mother sick, but we all have been in prayer, and I don't know how bad she is sufferiing now, we all pray for a miracle healing- By the blood of Jesus Christ, Please help us all to pray for blessings for the whole staff. In the same office we have two girls and they are a wonderful addition to the office, it is nice and calm now, and the girls know what they are doing.  Blair and Stephanie have been a real blessing. They are kind and smart and I feel better when I am there and feel better after I leave the office, even after we go through a few prayers ourselves, the doctor and I. Now we have a new man in the office to help- My prayers are with you all and still praying for Ethel and I know many others are praying also, the prayer line is big, but once you know everyone you can get everyone to pray with and for you across the world. Please Father bless that whole office, and keep them all in good health and we ask for a miracle healing for Ethel, love is the key when you pray for others- deep from within my heart. Dr. Conner is the closest thing to my heart, plus the two girls and her mom, and the new guy if he stays, I pray for them all to be blessed and sanctified.

54. Step Sister Barbara who has (Lupus) Needs a whole bunch of prayer, they told her she was going to die, when we started to pray and she said what ever they are doing keep doing it! Prayer for her son and husband are needed, now Barbara is only facing months to live unless divine healing comes and stays with her, it has been more then a few months and she is still working, but she needs prayer for a complete healing, it is something about her throat. Barbara is doing better my mom says what ever your doing keep it up, so she must be feeling better then a few months ago, it was very serious, but the prayers are helping, please Father I know she is not a Christian but can you make a way for me to be able to talk to her, and share the Good News with her, just in case, Please Lord help me or anyone to help Barbara know Jesus, especially now, I have her number but her husband will not let me talk with her, he probably has been listening to my half brother, and he does not even know who I am, or what I have been doing with my life. These are cridical times, she needs to know Jesus, and I pray that I am able to talk with her.

55. My mom and Leland-Bless them, daily prayer for them both- and a whole thank you for my mom caring about me, she has been sick because I am facing such darkness. But she has done more for me then "everyone put together in the family", but she goes through changes too, she is a blessing to me, she has saved my life many times, I enjoy having a loving talk, to put it plan- if it wasn't for her- I would be dead.

56. Mark, Lil, Gary, Glen, Gail and their husband and wives and children. Bless them all! and a fountain of prayers, to all my relatives, I love all of them but they don't even know Paul. They have no idea how much I love each of them. and how much I love and pray for them, they are family and family should stick together, I have not even spoken to any of the family on my mothers side in a few decades, which is wrong, I tried emailing my uncle, at least he works in a church, but the scriptures I wrote and the story, he just didn't seem to grasp what I was trying to say, basically that I love them and each segment of the family and the children I have never seen,  there husband and wife- I never saw or talked to. That is no way to have a loving family, I love them all, each one of them and each child the rest of my days, and I will always love Gary, Gleen, and Gail (My first cousins)and Gleen got married and now Gail is getting a divorse

57. My little 1/2 brother, his wife and kids- -plus my Dad and Judy-Bless them all, in prayer daily. It is amazing that my dad knows how bad I am doing and I am the only blood relative left, and he would rather play,  with a make believe family then his only blood he has left in the world, all I get to see is pictures, my dad is playing grandpa with people that aren't even blood related, and he is also playing the role of dad with my half brother, and 1/2 sister and their two kids, one girl and one boy, life is set for them, my half brother has more cars then I had in my whole life, and he is not even blood related, it was an accident with my mom having a son with another man, but my dad is doing all he can for that play time family man, with all kinds of gifts and presents. I still pray for all of them and I know I have sent them many blessings of love and prayer, I still would like to put my arms around my dad- so maybe someday my dad will talk to the only blood son or relative he has left. My mom asked for me to call him, he still does not love me, or care, and told me right out that he didn't want to help me in any way, even though I was facing a life or death situation- he thinks I am a lier, he has been lieing about himself and his health ever since I lived with him, and that was over 30 years ago. He takes care of his make believe family, with expensive gifts and showing off at the country club, taking the make believe family to the club and order what you want situation, I can't blame him, he has no family of his own, he cast me away decades ago also, and I am the only living relative, there is no one else left, just me, so if he will not help me in a life or death situation, there is always a chance that God will take away his heart of stone, and change the man with a heart of flesh, and have some love and compassion, with understanding for the future, my prayers are with them all.

58. Other step sister Debbie and her husband Paul-Bless them and pray for their future. They sold their business and need prayer, to help them.

She is a wonderful person, if she knew what I am going through she would be shocked, she would even fly out here if she knew how sick I was, if she had the money she would be here to help in any way she could. She is a jewel, that needs a blessing. She has suffered like Lynne, she went through all kinds of female operations, and other surgeries, she had a rough life, and she has suffered for a long time also, she Loves the Lord. And her future holds many rewards and blessings.

64. Minister-Terry and his wife and children- Florida-here is another (best friend) during those same years, he has never written, maybe because we worship the whole bible, and he and his congregation only use parts of the bible. And will not play any instuments, because they say there is nothing in the N.T. that talks about instuments. "Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;" [Eph. 5:19] "a psalm" is a poem that is sung with an instument(s)! I Pray that he understands some day, and I hope he realizes before or if someone gets sick. I did so much for the church plus on Wensday mornings when I could we would have a bible study, a long one that you can learn some facts.

65. Kenny who was my best friend for 2 years- plus his kids, his wife Gladis-Florida-We worked the food bank at the church and the big plant that stores all the food, we worked together for two years, he does not want to write because he said he would sound like Job's friends, Kenny was my best friend for those years, he hasn't written in years.

69. Barbara at the sally shop same store- Barbera is my favoite person and she has been a help as always and she talks to me like normal with a smile when I ever see her. Barb is home now, I guess her trip was cut short, or she didn't go to Germany, anyway I got to see her and talk to her this past week, she is a beutiful person, I don't know what happened but her son who is still in Germany- I pray for the whole family and miss Barb when she is gone. I miss her at the store, I enjoy talking with her.

73. Evangelical Free Church of America.-Everyone-run by Holly Fann still praying for everyone on the list I get one a week. The list changes every week, so there is a different prayer list for people all over the world.

74. Mary and Jay, from His Will Ministries, Wyoming. Mary and Jay have been blessings, we have a 4 year relationship going on love and friendship. I still write to them and they are always sending emails and praise reports. Mary knows what I am going through. And still yet we still comunicate, and pray for one another and all of there family and prayer requests for so many all over the world. They both are wonderful people and they help many in prayer.
