MINISTRY OPPORTUNITIES (TESTIMONIALS)


Here is the update of what is taking place. I have had the tremendous opportunity to share the ministry with a wonderful youth group last weekend at a Youth Gathering.

There was a packed house of young people and I shared in song and exhorted them in the reality that they live under an OpenHeaven when they are in constant communion with The Heavenly Father.

I encouraged youth to step out of their comfort zone and go Hard For God Now. Walk in complete righteousness no gray areas. There was one young man that was completely shaken and committed his life to Jesus. He shared with me how the testimony and songs encouraged him.

Also had the opportunity to share briefly with my home congregation youth group (after Pastor John shared some fire :-)) (Thanks To Pastors of Sonrise Youth Group (Thanks all of you) regarding media and the desire of Dad to transmit his dreams to his people without distraction.

There were several young people that felt the call to media and drew closer to The Father in that matter.

SALESMEN

There were two salesmen walking through a neighborhood of a new believer I was dropping off home. We were sitting in my car. My new buddy was asking to hear the music off the album. In any case one of the salesmen came up to the car and asked about the music.

Once he walked away I immediately felt the need to talk with him. We had a great opportunity to pray and share with them the goodnews of The Kingdom. One of the salesmen had parents that are both preachers. He was not serving The Father. SO needless to say he was shaken up.

All thanks and Praise be to The Heavenly Father in spreading this message through our lives offering up our gifts talents and abilities.

More to come...

With The help of some generous individuals!

A HUGE THANKS TO ALL OF YOU ALL THAT GAVE!!!


To The Glory of God, I have raised $400! YES!


Just a little under 10% I am encouraged that I am able to press forward in this endeavor.

My heart of hearts is to bring forth this message of Life Hope and Freedom through a Love Relationship with Jesus Christ. The Music serves as an excellent conversation piece between myself and youth from various walks of life.

I had the opportunity this last Tuesday Evening to share with a Baptist Youth Group out in Olympia at their Summer Camp! Shout out to Pastor C and his awesome staff!

It was an Awesome Life Changing time and many young people cried out to The Father and gave their heart to The Father. There were a group of young people that as well stayed in the Presence of The Father after the time together corporately to do business with The Father.

Prior to this Camp I also had an opportunity to share music and word to The King County Youth Detention Center for their Sunday Night chapel service.

I shared in song and gave my testimony regarding where I had came from and what God had done on my behalf! Young people that came in with expressionless lifeless faces began to shake my hand and open up after the service with regards to how their life was impacted to go forth in God.

I am truly grateful for the opportunity to use this gift of music for Dads glory.

Your gift of $100, $75, $50, $25 or whatever helps get mixing, mastering, production, duplication, packaging and marketing for this album paid for in full.


I have invested much money time and prayers to get this project out and look forward to the testimonies that will come forth as it is released.

Thank You all for continual support and encouragement.

May The Father Bless you Richly!

The Way (T-minus)

Greetings everyone I pray all is going well with you this fine hot summer season.
I am reintroducing this blog utilize it as a fundraiser for my Gospel Rap Album entitled "The Way".

The Way is a Gospel Rap tool to be released 9/9/09. My plan is to go out from this CD and hold workshops with youth groups emphasizing different aspects of "The Way" Based off of Acts 9:2 letting youth know the facets of the faith in the Son.

In a time when youth are being surrounded by the message of death disparity and degradation. I am bringing the message of The Hope and direction that is found in a love relationship with Jesus Christ.


Your gift of $10,$20,$50,$100 will help spread the gospel to this youth generation. I appreciate your continuous prayers and words of encouragement. I am working diligently to make sure this project comes out in quality laying a foundation that will impact 1000's of youth globally.
