Please pray for donors to support this ministry financially.  It's a very hard time for a lot of people but in order for this ministry to continue, we must be financially supported in a greater way.  Some people have stopped supporting us due to job loss or retirement.  This has hit us very hard because we count on every dime that comes in to keep our doors open.  It seems hopeless at this point if I continue listening to the bad news about the economy but I have faith in God that His people will be provided for - even through very difficult financial times.  God is greater than our economy.  So, please pray for an increase in provision.  It's in my heart to work full time but the finances are simply not there.  I've believed the Lord for this provision well over 12 years.  The Lord tells us that we will inherit the promise if we faint not so I'm working on not fainting at this point-ha,ha,ha...

For those who have supported us in the past, thank you.  For those of you who continue supporting us, thank you too.  I love you all deeply and know that we are called to labor together to bring millions to the saving grace of Jesus Christ.  I have such a great vision for this ministry but am limited so greatly by the lack of finances.  May the Lord bless you.

Hey everyone.  Hope all of you had a blessed Christmas and a New Year.  My family had a good Christmas.  It seems as if we party from Thanksgiving to February.  My two children's birthdays are in January and February.  By the end of February we are all ready to move out of the "celebration" faze.  It's all good though.  We are blessed to have such a great family. 

Hello friends.  The date for the next seminar is on Saturday February 21, 2009.  This date could change due to having to coordinate our schedule with City Church.  We are very grateful for City Church.  For years, they have provided us with FREE space.  This is a blessing.  Keep you posted.   

I've received requests to update my situation concerning the most recent trial that my family has been going through.  We continue going through this particularly "hard" place in our walk with the Lord.  I cannot tell you the details due to our need for confidentiality.  However, I ask that you continue to pray for me, Nicole and our two kids.  As you know, there is no distance between our prayers and the Holy Spirit.  He knows all things and their is no need for details with Him-for He already knows everything.  I must say that what we've been going through has been one of the most difficult times in my life personally.  I've experienced such a wide range of emotion in which at times I fell as if the Father Himself has given up on me.  The Holy Spirit spoke this scripture to my heart "though I walk through the valley, the shadow of death, I will fear no evil."  We all know this scrpture but it was particularily comforting to me. 

We are keeping our faces like flint toward the work the Lord has called us to as a married couple.  We are keeping our hands to the plow and not allowing ourselves to dwell on the past.  We are looking forward and not backward. 

I believe in the end, my family will be stronger than ever for this trial we continue to endure.   I'm sorry I cannot tell you more but the Lord in His wisdom prohibits me from sharing any more at this time.  I hope to share more at a future date. Thank you for your continued support, prayers and love. 

Please check out the Chattanooga Times Free Press today (Sunday, December 28th.) for an article they did on JCM.  The article can be found on front page of the newspaper.  The title of the article is: An Intervention of Faith.  The article was fair and balanced and I'm very pleased with it.  Please go out and buy a paper.  If it's not possible to go out and purchase a paper, you can check out the online version at the Chattanooga Times Free Press website. 

Offer me your feedback on the article and your comments may be added to this blog.  God bless.

I'm being interviewed for an upcoming article concerning Joseph's Coat.  Please pray for me as I meet with the journalist tomorrow.  We've had the privilege of having our ministry presented in the Chattanooga Times in the past and have always been treated fairly in their coverage of our vital work.  Thanks for your support.

Thank you for praying for me and my family.  Our severe trial is not over yet, but we are believing the Lord for a quick resolve to the issues we are facing.  I want to thank you for all the emails and phone calls of encouragement.  You are a blessing!  I will keep you up to date as to the progress of our private situation.  Again, thanks for your faithful prayers.  We love you.

Please pray for me. I'm under attack by the Devil and I could really use your prayer covering.  As you may or may not know, it is hard to be in ministry (particularly this one).  The attacks are never ending and come from all sides.  Thank you for caring about me and my family enough to support us in the work we are doing by your monetary donations, prayer support, counsel or all of the above.  May God bless you for your faithfulness to the work of Joseph's Coat.  

I would like to give a "shout out" to all those who participated in our last seminar.  Thank you for making it a success.  I was so pleased over the outcome of the meeting.  Many were touched by the power of the Holy Spirit as well as great information was provided.  Looking forward to the next seminar in three months.  God bless and thank you for supporting Joseph's Coat.  

Hello everyone .  Hope all is well and that you are finding yourself blessed in the Lord Jesus Christ.  I have a few prayer requests that I would like for you to remember.  

1. Pray for our upcoming seminar (November 8): good attendance, people to be set free by the power of the Holy Spirit, knowledge of God's Word to abound. 
2. Finances: since the down turn of the economy, the ministry has seen a slight drop in donations. God is ultimately in control of all things and we are trusting Him for provision.  
3. Clients: our clients are in need of continued healing from their SSA.
4. NEW Support Group for WOMEN: We are in the planning stages of starting a new group.  We need God's wisdom in placement of leadership as well as member participation.  
5. The Journeymen Support Group: our group for men is going well.  Continue to lift up our members needs for emotional healing and wholeness to the Lord.
