Psalm 72:3-5; 11-13. “He will bring justice to the poor of the people; He will save the children of the needy, And will break in pieces the oppressor... For He will deliver the needy when he cries, The poor also, and him who has no helper. He will spare the poor and needy, And will save the souls of the needy."

Proverbs 31:9, "Open your mouth, judge righteously, And plead the cause of the poor and needy."

"My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth." (I John 3:18).

Bringing hope, healing and salvation to souls in need!

Dear Brothers & Sisters in Christ,

Greetings in Jesus’ Precious Name. I pray you are doing well and staying healthy. I am sorry to tell you, earlier in February I was in the hospital for 4 days with double pneumonia. It was a rough go of it, and it is taking a l-o-n-g time to get over it. But thanks be to Jesus, I am on the mend. But for the second time in 6 months (November and February) we had to cancel the trip. But God is always on time! GOD WILLING, we will go May 31-June 6 when we will bring a group to work with us, building “casitas” and sharing the love of the Lord Jesus.

I know we are all praying for the war in the Middle East with Iran. I am SO PROUD of our President Donald J. Trump for his courage, wisdom and strength in these times. Some say that he is a “war monger” but I think he is the exact opposite. He is a PEACE MONGER! I pray for the families of the soldiers who have died. I know what it is to lose a brother in war, but as the Bible says (Eccl. 3:2, 8),”A time to be born, and a time to die.” And “A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.” We pray for a swift resolution to this conflict and for the first time in 47 years the people of Iran will be free and there will be peace in the region! I am sure you will join me in this prayer.

Here south of I-10, we are finally enjoying the arrival of Spring. The azaleas are starting to bloom, the grass is becoming green, and the little birds are singing. All these signs remind us to give thanks to Jesus for the promise of new life that fills our beautiful world. While nature displays renewal and hope, we are reminded of the challenges and darkness that persist in our country. Even as we celebrate the beauty and joy that surround us, there is a rampant culture marked by evil, hate, and filth in our country—something more troubling than anything I have ever seen. People who hate our President, our country, and our way of life spew filthy language as I never have seen in my lifetime! We should continue to pray for them and for a revival of goodness, kindness, and love.

When I listened to/read my daily devotion this morning, God blessed me a passage that I have read so many times before. In Proverbs 11:24, 25; “There is one who scatters yet increases more; and there is one who withholds more than is right, but it leads to poverty. The generous soul will be made rich, and he who waters will also be watered himself.” What encouragement and a challenge to me! To the best of my ability, I have tried to live by that verse for most of my life. I promise you that I will THIS DAY and going forward I will fulfill that challenge and bless those who bless me! Please join me this challenge and “scatter” and increase, and “water” others and be refreshed yourself!

Thank you sincerely for your generous prayers for me and for your faithfulness that is touching so many little lives. I love you MUCH. Please continue to PRAY OFTEN FOR ME!

In His Service

Over the past month, I have shared exciting updates about our DLEA School Program. By God’s grace and your prayers and support, children are back in school and have made another grade upward! Thanks to your commitment, we have been able to make a meaningful impact on the lives of children.

Breaking the Cycle of Poverty and Hopeless

For decades, our efforts have focused on providing children with educational opportunities, giving them the tools they need to escape the cycle of poverty and hopelessness. The children returned to school with enthusiasm, and they are eager to not only advance academically but also develop crucial social skills. DLEA’s program is designed to help young people become well-rounded, responsible adults. From the wee ones to the young adults, you are changing lives through your love.

Supporting Children Both Physically and Spiritually

Beyond academics, we are committed to nurturing the physical and spiritual well-being of every child. That is evident by the variety of meals our staff prepares every day for these children. Through targeted nutrition programs and spiritual guidance, we support their growth into young men and women of faith in the Lord Jesus. These efforts are only possible because of the continued partnership and generosity of those who support DLEA Ministries.

The Lasting Impact of YOUR SUPPORT

Anyone who has supported our mission over the years knows that DLEA has significantly impacted many young lives. By working together, we empower children to create a promising future, founded on faith and hope. These little lives thank you and pray for you every time they meet!

I want to challenge you to look in the children in these photos, pray for them, and one by one, and ask God to use you to “water” them and refresh them by your love and support. Then look for God to water you and refresh you, even as you respond! Thank you so very much for your love, prayers and you support what God is doing through all of us. Please continue to pray often for me.
