In the 7 years that we have been associated with House of Blessing, we have heard and shared many stories of miracles, seldom seen in the West, that have changed people by the grace of the One True God and Savior, Jesus Christ. While the greatest miracle is always a person’s changed heart in repentance leading to salvation, it is […]
ALL EYES ON ISRAEL Part Three
As much of the Western world has been inundated with ridiculous circus acts of western politics, many have questioned if the conflict in the Mideast has cooled. Not so. Storm clouds have continued to gather, and although there have been movements of troops and military weaponry shifted from one location to another, with nothing major having broken out yet, the […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 10/8/2018 “Racing To The Finish Line!”
As we watch the threats of a major Mideast war continue to escalate, we are reminded that the House of Blessing missionaries are in great need of our prayers and support. Most of the HOB missionaries that are embedded within the populations have had the chance to relocate to safer areas but have chosen not to. The calling they […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 6/5/2018
I spent some time thinking back over the scores of updates written in the past six years and wondered how often they may seem repetitive to readers. Over these past handful of years there have been stories telling of the Bibles provided and distributed, many accounts of the souls reached, stories describing some of the horrors witnessed and experienced by […]
MIDEAST UPDATE Pastor R…3/9/2018
Today’s Mideast Update will concern itself mainly with Pastor R. I am amazed at all of the things that have happened in the past six years since, by way of a divine appointment, our paths crossed. None of us could have imagined what would unfold. In early April 2013 Pastor R and two other men, Rami and Jameal, were brutally […]

This is Part Two of a story written four years ago that many current readers may never have read. The first part of this story reprinted a few days ago had to do with a man named Nabil who had formerly been a Muslim head-sheikh before becoming a believer in Jesus Christ. The second part of the story which you […]
SPECIAL MIDEAST UPDATE, 2/15/2018 “Story of Nabil”
A few days ago I promised to begin reprinting some of the past stories of the great things that God has done through the House of Blessing. The story below happened four years ago this month… *********************************** Special Middle East Update, Feb. 25, 2014 On Friday, 2/14/2014, I was anticipating receiving what has become a weekly phone call from House […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 11/28/2017
As I was looking over notes that I had taken from my phone call with Pastor R this week, my mind went to stories that many of us have read in the Book of Acts. Stories of the seedling Church on the Day of Pentecost which grew into a force that has not been stopped for 2,000 years. In those […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 7/20/ 2017
This week’s update is in two parts, the second part being a story that comes directly from people in Mosul who are experiencing the reality of the civil war battleground that is both Iraq and Syria today. This story will be on line in a couple days. Many people hear little or no news about what is actually happening in […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 5/31/2017
I have been out of my office for a few days but want to pass on the most recent information that I have received in my last two conversations with Pastor R. The Islamic month of Ramadan is in full swing and the House of Blessing missionaries are strategically located around the Middle East. Just in the first few days […]
