Dear Ministry Partners and Friends,
Even though the first 8 weeks of 2025 brought several days of cold, wet, dreary weather, Jesus’
command in Matthew 28 was not deterred. Many AMAZING things happened!!
And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
Go therefore and make disciples of all nations…” Matthew 28:18-19
Following is a quick recap of these AMAZING things:
● 59 people have made Jesus Christ their Lord and Savior
● 6 in Tyler, 31 in Dallas, and 22 in Austin
● 3 people have been baptized
● 1 person in Austin and 1 person in Dallas have moved into permanent housing
● 1 person in Dallas and 1 person in Tyler have entered a long-term recovery program
MY LATEST TRIP
In February, besides being on the streets of Tyler, I was on the streets of Dallas for 4 days and
Austin for 4 days, seeing results that amaze me. Regardless of the number of times that I see God
harvest and transform lives, it always astonishes me. It’s something that I truly believe every
follower of Jesus should experience firsthand.\
I ended the trip back in Dallas for the 19th Birthday Party of a young man who, less than 2 years ago,
we helped to get off the streets after spending 16 months “existing” on them. This is how amazing
God is: This young man gets off the streets and into a loving home with his own bedroom for the
first time ever, gets his GED and Driver’s License, and gets a job as a helper with an HVAC
company. From there, he got a used car, was accepted to UT-Dallas, and his employer loved him
so much that he moved him into the warehouse so he could continue to work while being a full-time
student. We serve an AWESOME God.
UPCOMING MISSIONARY TRIPS
As physically tiring as these Missionary Trips can be, they always prove to be spiritually energizing.
In March, I will be on the streets of Dallas and Austin; in April, I will be on the streets of Dallas, San
Antonio and New Orleans, and in May, I will be on the streets of Dallas and Chicago. These Mission
Trips are continually proving to be very effective in the transformation of lives but are costly. These
trips are the largest single expense of the Ministry. This year, the cost of travel is estimated at
almost $23,000. Any financial support you can give towards these trips is greatly needed and
appreciated. Just as important as your financial support are your prayers. Specifically, I pray that
each and every person I encounter will be receptive and that their lives may be transformed.
I am asking for your support so the Kingdom message can be shared with as many as possible in as
many places as possible. Thanks for partnering with me!
Your Brother in Christ,
Eric
