Commit to the LORD whatever you do and your plans will succeed. - Proverbs 16:3

Carei, Romania 4 years ago we were blessed to have gone to Carei, Romania and share
the love and grace of God through music.  Hardly anyone spoke English, yet the smiles   
of appreciation were heartwarming.  We went to many different homes to share Christ   
and several churches and one of the greatest blessings was in a Gypsy Church that had just
finished building and painting their church days before we arrived.  
Aruba, Dutch West Indies – For the last 3 years, it has been a blessing to have gone and
ministered in affiliation with Peniel Baptist Church.  Many times during street              
ministry in music and through the prayers of those in attendance, many came to receive
Christ.  It was incredible how God super-imposed Himself over everything that we      
even knew to ask or expect and knocked our socks off with the outpouring of His grace.
El Salvador, Central America June 2007, we began a new mission outreach to the people
and churches of El Salvador. This mission trip was set in motion by Pastor Walter
Quintanilla of Iglesia Monte Sinai of Houston, Texas. Along with several other pastors
from Texas, we went in obedience to the call to go into the world and spread the Gospel  
of our Lord. By the grace of our Almighty God, we saw the power of the Holy revealed in
salvations, healing and brokenness in all our travels. God has begun a work that only He
knows the fullness of!
Talsi, Latvia - August 2008, a team of friends, Pastor Rex & Cathy Jackson, Brett & Judy
Atchley and my wife Sue and myself embarked on mission trip to Talsi, Latvia.  After
months of prayer and with great expectations, we finally arrived.  What we again all
learned is that God is bigger than any of our expectations and He certainly made it clear
for us all.  We saw over 50 people make decisions for Christ and as if that was not enough
we saw and drew ever so close to the hearts of so many new friends in a place called
Talsi!  I for one, will never be the same again after what God revealed to us on this trip -
Glory to God!

Music CD Ministry: To date there have been 4 CDs produced, First Living Water
instrumental saxophone music comprising traditional Hymns and Spiritual songs,                   
On Eagles’ Wings – instrumental saxophone music comprising primarily contemporary
Christian songs,
Fruit of the Vine - comprising singing and instrumental arrangements of a
variety of Hymns and Christian music, and
Christmas in the Heart – instrumental saxophone
music comprising traditional and contemporary Christmas music.

Although never planned, God has enabled these CDs to reach various areas in the USA, as well
as Russia, Romania, Aruba, Mexico, El Salvador, Honduras, Venezuela, Jamaica, Africa and
Colombia, Holland and Latvia.  To the glory of God, some of these CDs are currently being
aired in San Salvador, by Radio Verdad, in Aruba by Radio Victoria as well Bonaire, and
Curacao, neighboring islands.  The stories are endless as to the use of these CDs from putting
babies to sleep to funerals and all parts in between.  God has so blessed them that they simply
touch the hearts of those listening, again all to His glory!

Devotion Ministry: Several years ago, by the grace of God, I began to write devotions and   
email them to those that graciously chose to receive them.  My hope is to one day, publish  
these writings the Lord has so blessed, making them available to a much larger segment of     
the world.  As is the case with the CD ministry, the Devotion Ministry has brought an      
incredible number of responses affirming that God intently uses these writings to support,
encourage, convict and otherwise draw people closer to Him.  Yet again to His glory!

If your are interested in receiving these devotions, send me an email:
