Dear KKIM/KARS Family,
Let me share with you that I will be preaching in the morning at 11am at the Church of God in Los Lunas. www.loslunaschurchofgod.com
It will be one of my National Day of Prayer messages: Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD Psalm 33:12 The signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, Our Nations’s Birth certificate, The Declaration proclaims that our rights come from God. Period. What God has given, nobody can take away.
I will also be speaking Thursday at 7am at Cross of Hope in Albuquerque on Taylor Ranch Rd for their National Day of Prayer event. Mayor Berry will also be speaking. I will be speaking about a little known event in 1789 in New York with our First President George Washington. www.crossofhope.org
Sharon and I are so blessed that the Congregation of Cross of Hope has adopted me as a leader in the community as they pray for everyday! WOW! How touching is that! I am so humbled by this…….it made me cry.
Let me share this with you that Sharon found today…….something we shared a long time ago…but it is such a good story on how we must look out for one another…….

As we prepare for the National Day of Prayer……..we got this lovely note from Mike and Jan of Bosque Farms, NM………
Hope all is well. When you have a moment to yourself, read this, and please know that I am so grateful to have each of you in my life. It was difficult for me to decide who I thought would send this to because many people claim to pray, but not everyone does. I hope I chose the right twelve. Please send this back to me (You’ll see why). May everyone who received this message be blessed.
There are 12 months/ 12 disciples / 12 tribes of Israel / Jesus’ birth celebrated in the 12th month.. There is nothing attached. Just send this to twelve others. Prayer is one of the best free gifts we receive. There is no cost, just a lot of reward. Make sure you pray, and pray believing God will answer.
May today be all you need it to be. May the peace of God and the freshness of the Holy Spirit rest in your thoughts, rule in your dreams tonight, and conquer all your fears… May God manifest himself today in ways you have never experienced. May your joys be fulfilled, your dreams be closer, and your prayers be answered.. I pray that faith enters a new height for you; I pray that your territory is enlarged. I pray for peace, healing, health, happiness, prosperity, joy, true and undying love for God.
