Thank you so much for your prayers - the taping with the 700 Club went well yeterday - the crew was so nice and we prayed before starting the filming and David Kithcart - the guy who interviewed me - is a great guy! I felt totally comfortable with him and so I wasn't nervous at all. They took us to both lunch and dinner after filming - we filmed where they were staying at the Radisson and later after it got dark, on Hollywood Blvd. We just want to reach people for Jesus and give God all the glory!!! He is so amazing. We are so humbled by the work He is doing. The interview was just with me, but there will also be some shots of both Daryl and… Read More

Well there were a lot of girls out last night. We met around 2:30am at the church, prayed and then hit the road. It was great, the ladies we were with - Paula and Angela had a table and a couple of chairs they set up on the sidewalk. They also had coffee, water, snacks and chocolates, along with a lot of tracts set out on the table. When we first got to the area there were only a few girls out, but after about an hour there were about 10-15 of them out, a few at every corner. We didn't see any real young ladies (under 18) - most looked like they were in their early twenties. Paula and Angela stayed at the table, and Daryl and I went walking down… Read More

So I will post the next class when I decide when we'll have it - probably sometime in March. Thank you for everyones' support! Read More

GOD IS GOOD! We got back to LA from Phoenix Arizona on Thursday night - Pastor School was amazing as usual! Thank you for your prayers and support! The day we got to Phoenix I received a phone call from the 700 Club - they are coming to LA next week and are going interview me and also film Daryl too! Praise God - please pray that God would be glorified and that many people will be touched, saved, ministered to, etc. through this! Thank You Jesus! We were SO BLESSED to make it to Phoenix with no problems at all (our concern was our van not making it) because our friend's Nick and Heidi from Reality LA let us borrow their 2004… Read More

Okay, Daryl and I just got home from Phoenix - Pastor School was amazing!!! I'll write more about it later but the day we got into Phoenix and checked in to our motel, a guy from the 700 Club called me and his crew will be in LA and they'd like to interview me with Daryl there too...they're gonna meet us at the Reality LA office the 20th of this month! Please be praying for this filming, that God will get all the glory and that many people will be ministered to through this!

We also got a speaking engagement at a church in Hawthorne (local) - at a African American church - I've really been praying to be able to minister… Read More

We're leaving for Phoenix tomorrow at 4am! Before we even go to Hollywood for service we need to go to storage to pick up our suitcases! Then at church, I'm going to announce the class we're having on the Pimp and Prostitute ministry next week after church...and after church we'll be running around...do some last minute shopping...and then we're going to our Pastor's new house! God totally blessed him and his family with a house in Silverlake. That's encouraging, because our heart is to move back into either Hollywood or Silverlake areas - right now we're still staying with our friend Jackie and most of our stuff is in storage. Now his house… Read More
