Donation from the Post Office!

I have spent so much time at my local post office, they even made a donation to the ministry yesterday! That is rare!!

I have been shipping packages to our locations all over the world and have sure spent hundreds of dollars at the post office this week. Yesterday a postal worker asked, "Would you like some free brand new boxes and shipping materials?" I told him he had made my week. He said he was hoping to donate them to a non-profit. He gave me MANY really nice boxes and padded mailing envelopes, saving at least $100.00 in shipping supplies.

Not only have I been mailing out materials, but I have worked a lot in the storage unit and have been placing orders for more materials. I am still trying to get free tracts to our locations in Kenya and Pakistan in Kiswahili and Urdu.

SCHEDULE AND UPDATES:

Today, I plan to email three contacts in Mexico to get free tracts to our leaders in Guadalajara and Los Cabos.

I also have bookkeeping to finish from my trip to MX. My loft is finally looking like my home again instead of a shipping center. :-)

I am determined to finish the text for "Jesus vs. all the Others" today or tomorrow for www.bygodsgrace.org .

I will be working this Saturday with Charisse Graves, who is driving from Alabama to work with us in outreach at Little Five Points. It will be a fun weekend. She is one of my very best friends, so I am thrilled about her spending the night with me Saturday night, and we will have a lot of fun working in ministry together!

Sunday is a busy morning and afternoon at my church, www.fba.org , as I have a leadership meeting, and I hope to speak with the person who is interviewing me for a television show Sunday night by phone appointment.

It is looking like I am back in the music studio Monday or Tuesday of next week. I am speaking with someone about getting my music played on MAINSTREAM ADULT CONTEMPORARY stations here in Atlanta, as opposed to Christian stations. This is very exciting! If it gets good response, maybe other Adult Contemporary stations will play the songs in other cities. I am considering doing a "single" CD of only "Place Of Surrender" and "Honest Life" for radio stations in the Adult Contemporary genre.

Soon to come: ministry update from NYC...
