I would like to begin this update by saying thank you to the many readers who have followed this story, some from the very beginning of this project at the end of March 2012. It has been an incredible saga, a story that can only be told in its fullness when we find ourselves in the presence of our Messiah, […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 12/21/2014
Hardly a week goes by in which there is not a new story to tell in the lives of House of Blessing missionaries. For over 32 months, there have been stories of the many who have found their Messiah Jesus as Savior. At the same time, there are the difficult stories of the losses and the heartache that comes with […]
MIDEAST UPDATE: 12/9/2014
After having received three separate calls from Syria this last week, I spent some time reminiscing over the story that has unfolded over the last 32 months. It has truly been a saga of tremendous effort, sacrifice, triumph, tragedy, and new life for hundreds of thousands who had no hope. As I was thinking back over the events and phone […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 11/29/2014
Greetings Everyone: Just before sharing with you the latest update I received from House Of Blessing, Jerusalem, I would like to clear up an unintentional mistake made in my previous Mideast Update. After my introductory comments I inserted an e-mail I received directly from the Epicenter. Due to some unfortunate misunderstanding on my part, I thought the e-mail urgent prayer […]
MIDEAST UPDATE & PRAYER ALERT, 11/25/2014
On Friday morning I received a call from Pastor R****. He let me know that he had had heart issues; in fact, at least one heart attack. He was taken to a hospital and stabilized. He was in good spirits but wanted to keep us all informed so that we could pray. He was very anxious to get back to […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 11/11/2014
This last week has been very eventful. I received a report from Syria with photos taken in Northern Syria near the border with Turkey. Mofidah, and her group of widows in Syria, who have had so many astounding experiences in the past few months, was able to get to Pastor R****’s location and visit with him in person. She brought […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 11/4/2014
For this update, I suggest that the reader take time and read through the Book of the Acts of the Apostles. What we read there is just the beginning. In these last moments of time before the Great Day of the Lord, we are being gifted with some of the most tremendous stories of all time. In the history of […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 10/29/2014
After not having heard from House of Blessing for about ten days or so, it was good to receive an update once again. After hearing of the unusual visitor Pastor R**** had had last time, I could not help but wonder how things were. One of the things that seems to be a constant in the last weeks is the […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 10/12/2014
A common statement I hear more and more today is how near we are to the return of Jesus Christ, the Messiah. It is not just hype thrown out to get people excited or spiritually jazzed, but rather as an encouragement to get our houses in order as well as finishing the race well. The imminent return of Jesus is […]
