Prosperous and Successful

TIM GIDLEY

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 07 Feb 2017 01:12:00 +0000

Tim met Christ when he was eight years old and is from a family dedicated to knowing and loving Jesus. Being in a musical family, it made sense that Tim would also have a love for music and performing. A love for music and a desire to share his faith in Christ culminated in 1997 when he was asked to join Rambo/Mcguire Ministries as the bus driver. They knew nothing of his vocal abilities at that time.

"The Lord opened the door for me to first serve in the most basic capacities in a traveling ministry. I drove the bus, set up equipment, and stayed in the background," remembers Tim.

Luke 16 speaks of taking care of that which belongs to another, so that God may give you that which is your own. Well, it worked out after a few months. Reba Rambo, daughter of beloved gospel legend Dottie Rambo, heard Tim sing. The ministry started giving him opportunities to minister in song and playing drums.

Tim now celebrates nineteen years in ministry and music. He has recorded eight solo projects. He has shared the gospel in fifteen countries around the world -- at conferences, churches, and even political and secular settings. Tim's vocals and the anointing on his life have opened doors for him to minister on several Christian television networks and be the soloist for several prolific ministries around the country including Reinhard Bonnke, T.D. Jakes, and Gary Mcspadden

Tim is celebrating seventeen years of marriage to his wife Sabrina this year. They have three children Maximus, Giselle, and Gabriella Grace. They reside in Aiken, South Carolina and attend Millbrook Baptist Church.

Please pray for this

wonderful man and family.

Their passion is to transform the world

through music, song, and service.

PRAY THAT THEY WILL BE

PROPSEROUS AND SUCCESSFUL

IN THEIR ENDEAVOR

TO CHANGE THE WORLD.

My name is Alexis Jimeson. I am a pre-nursing major at Grand Canyon University and this year I am applying to be a residential assistant which is a great opportunity for me. During the past two years at GCU, I have been in many ways struggling -- whether it be with schooling, friends, work, or even my faith -- but I have gotten through it. I feel all of this will make me a very relatable R.A. and distinguish me from the rest of the applicants.

During my application process, I was asked what described my journey with Jesus Christ and I was hit with this overwhelming warmth of the fact that I finally have a journey with my Lord and Savior. I have started my journey with the Lord and have put into place what is important to me. I may have just stared my relationship with Abba, but I can tell you that it will be a close one. I am very appreciative to the people who have pushed me to my breaking point because without them, I would not be where I am with my Lord, my studies, and my personal life.

With my application, they asked to do the Myers-Briggs personality test. The personality I got was ENFJ (Extraversion, Intuition, Feeling, Judgement). I believe ENFJ's are very charismatic. They are natural-born leaders and full of passion. They inspire others to achieve and to do good in the world. They take pride and joy in guiding others to work together to improve themselves and their community. ENFJ's radiate authenticity, concern, altruism, and are unafraid to stand up and speak when they feel something needs to be said. They find it natural and easy to communicate with others, especially in person. Their intuitive trait helps people with the ENFJ personality type to reach every mind. The interest ENFJ's have in others is genuine. I feel as though this will make me a great R.A.

Please pray for Alexis's success and prosperity

as she attends college and serves Jesus.

Extended Hope Ministries

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 17 Jan 2017 05:02:00 +0000

Extended Hope Ministries was established in 2007 by Minister Bonnie Alvarado, whose passion is to see hurting individuals healed and restored. Upon receiving God into her life over twenty-five years ago and being set free from the devastation of her own abortions, she now works to help others break through the barriers that prevent them from experiencing true emotional, mental, and spiritual freedom.

Extended Hope Ministries offers no-cost individual counseling to those who have been negatively impacted by abortion. In addition, their website (www.extendedhopeministries.com) serves as a helpful resource to those who've been wounded by abortion, as well as those who desire a greater understanding of its impact.

The subject of abortion can be very complicated, as there is often a broad spectrum of pain and brokenness associated with it. After an abortion, a woman is left to face herself, her sin, her failure, and the loss that she mourns and ultimately has responsibility for. Great pain can also be experienced by those who knew of or were a part of the abortion decision, or those who found out after the abortion.

Many of these hurting individuals suffer silently without realizing that forgiveness and restoration is possible for them. Although an abortion may never be forgotten, there is a healthy place of acceptance and wholeness that does exist. Extended Hope Ministries is here to help you find it.

EHM founder, Minister Bonnie Alvarado, has extensive knowledge and experience in post-abortion and healing ministry. She is a writer and speaker who shares candidly about her past and the deliverance God has done in her life. Her "straight-from-the-heart" style is a welcoming characteristic that makes her easy to connect with. In addition to post-abortion recovery, she also speaks on a variety of other subjects affecting both men and women today. To find out more about counseling or to have her speak at your event, you may contact her directly at (805) 538-0341.

"Abortion is not the finality of destiny." -- Bonnie Alvarado

She can be seen on the program Redemptive Power, which is aired weekly on The Holy Spirit Broadcasting Network.

Please pray for the success and prosperity of

Minister Bonnie Alvarado

and Extended Hope Ministries.

ORIANA SAGE

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Mon, 02 Jan 2017 02:20:00 +0000

Oriana Sage works primarily in oil paint and ink drawings, with a desire to merge representational and abstracted imagery. She studied Art and Design at California Polytechnic Sate University and gained her BFA in Studio Art in 2014.

Oriana currently teaches private drawing lessons to children and works out of a shared studio space at Atelier 708 in Paso Robles, California.

In the past year, God has grown a deep desire within Oriana to pursue art as a form of ministry and a way to create a personal window into the beauty of God's relationship with us.

Oriana explaining her current work and mindset:

I strive to bring to life the inner workings of my soul, to visually articulate the struggle and triumph that rest beneath an assumed surface. My paintings examine the close relationship of physical position and the spirit.

I am fascinated by interactions of light bursting through shadow, the two-dimensional emerging into living form, and color conveying depth of feeling and vitality. Some of my favorite conceptual themes are resistance and surrender, death as an avenue to life, and the small and mundane being a metaphor for the transcendent. My process brings together two realms: the seen and familiar and what is unseen, deeply internal and that which must be sought. Familiar portraiture collides with color, movement, and abstraction to reveal this relationship. The imagery of scars and thorns portray a very real struggle, yet the struggle has an opportunity to ascend, the scars grow over with soft skin, the thorns become crowned with gold.

Every image opens a small window to my own internal dialog. The rubbled mire and ache of the world converse with wonder. My deepest hunger and hope is for God Himself - hunger drives, hope ascends.

Please pray for the prosperity and success of Oriana Sage.

HEAVENLY BRIDGE MINISTRIES

Cedar Hill, Texas 75106-3395

GOD EXTENDS HIS HANDS TO THE MOST VULNERABLE

Heavenly Bridge Ministries strives to make a difference in the lives of Africa’s most vulnerable children, women, and marginalized groups through supporting, equipping, and training them in skills that apply to their daily lives while keeping in mind that education is key to long term change in Uganda and in Africa as a whole. They are offering hope for today and tomorrow's generation.

Founded by Pastor S. A. Moses, Heavenly Bridge Ministries strongly believes that Jesus Christ is the only bridge between God and man and that we should share that with the suffering world.

In the Old Testament, David’s brother, Eliab, tried to stop David from confronting the giant, Goliath. In response David said to Eliab, "Is there not a cause?" (1 Sam. 17:29)

Heavenly Bridge Ministries believes there is a cause of concern today when we see:

• Families going without food.
• Gifted students unable to go to school because of lacking means.
• Children raising babies when both or one of the parents has died from AIDS.
• Young girls caught in the sex slave trade of the 21st century.
• Young boys in war zones as child soldiers.
• The list goes on and on.

Heavenly Bridge Ministries quickly recognized that education is the key to long term change in Uganda and Africa. Thanks to you, the friends and partners of Heavenly Bridge Ministries, more children are being provided with quality education they would have otherwise gone without. Also, their families and hundreds of people in their communities are receiving help in the form of food, medical assistance, and the Word of God.

With this in mind, Heavenly Bridge Ministries utilizes the concept that if you teach a man to fish, he will never go hungry. This ministry has put in place programs that provide children with both the Word of God and the skills they need to support themselves and others in the future.

This ministry reaches out to orphans and to misfortuned children, those who have lost their family members due to HIV/AIDS, children who have suffered the traumas of war, and children who come from needy homes. In this way, Heavenly Bridge Ministries is giving them a hand with which to combat and is raising strong leaders for tomorrow’s generation.

Pastor Moses graduated from Christ For the Nations Institute in Dallas, Texas. Bishop Gabe, the moderator of this blog, has personally known Pastor Moses for more than ten years. He knows him to be a man of integrity. He possesses a real passion to enlarge the Kingdom of God and is a nation shaker.

Update: Pastor Moses will be preaching in the 10 o'clock service on Sunday, August 19, 2012 at The Revival Center in Paso Robles, California.

PLEASE PRAY FOR THE PROSPERITY AND SUCCESS
OF HEAVENLY BRIDGE MINISTRIES.
PRAY THAT GOD WOULD SUPERNATURALLY INTERVENE ON THEIR BEHALF.
THANK GOD FOR THE OPPORTUNITY OF STANDING BEHIND AND SUPPORTING THIS WORK THROUGH YOUR PRAYERS AND FINANCIAL INVESTMENT.

Irene Johnson

Primerica Financial Services

Primerica found me in 1989. I was managing a family deli in San Luis Obispo. We were struggling. A bank teller in San Luis Obispo asked me if I would be interested in earning more money. I said yes. I knew that the deli would not be able to survive and that I would want to do something after we closed the business.

When I first looked at Primerica, I understood the concepts and the opportunity of having my own business, so I decided to do it. Primerica always includes your partner if you have one, so I hired by husband, Marshall.

One of the ways to becoming successful in Primerica is to build a team. I hired my husband, my son, and later on my granddaughter, Christine. After being a part of this great company, I found many Christians within the company. God has always had His hand on this company. Many of the people that belong to Primerica are Christians so we found a good fit.

In the twenty plus years I have been here, I have learned many things about finances. To think that I had lived over half of my life never having anyone explain the concepts and strategies to becoming financially independent.

Some of the rewards, beside monetary, are the wonderful clients that I help to become financially independent, or just guiding them to have what they will want or need when they retire.

But most of all, it is the team we have and friendships we have built. It has been great working and building the relationships we have with each other. You can see the team here on this blog: Kevin Gracie, Dottie Gracie, Ruben Ruiz, Juan Espinoza, Christine, my son Marshall, and of course, my husband of sixty-one years. He is always supportive and positive.

We recently moved our office into The Revival Center’s old office. What we need now are more associates. It seems that we have not been able to accomplish this yet, and we definitely could use some prayers to help us. We would like to have at least twenty new people. Hopefully, with the help of prayers and hard work, we can accomplish this task.

I will look forward to God’s answer to our prayers. Thank you for your help. God bless you.

Why I do what I do:

What a joy I receive when I can offer hope and help to people in their financial need through Primerica.

I have over thirty years experience in banking, over twenty years in tax preparation, and ten years with Primerica.

With my financial experience in banking, tax preparation, and the Primerica business opportunity, I am able to understand my clients' issues and I am able to find and offer them the best solutions for their needs.

Through Primerica, I am able to show clients how they can become debt free, financially independent, protect their family against unforeseen circumstances, and show them how they can earn extra income through the Primerica business opportunity. This opportunity is presented every Tuesday at 7pm at 715 - 24th Street, Suite R, in Paso Robles, California.

I love helping people find a solution to issues in their lives that make them and their families uncomfortable.

Families today need freedom from worry, depression, and fear concerning their present and future lives.

I believe this is my God-given purpose in life and what a joy I feel when I can help a family be filled with love, joy, and peace because they are worry-free!

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 07 Jul 2012 23:20:00 +0000

Hi, my name is Kevin Gracie. I have lived in San Luis Obispo County (California Central Coast) for most of my life. I currently live in Paso Robles, California. I attended and graduated from Cuesta College 2000. In 1999, I completed my studies as a tax preparer and recieved my certification with the State of California.

In 2003, I joined Primerica, because I saw the financial need of individuals and believed in Primerica's core principles. Primerica's principles are to help people become debt free, financially independent and properly protected. So many middle-income families go through life without a financial plan or a financial road map and that’s why many of us retire broke. Here at Primerica, our main focus is to help middle-class American families retire financially indepent, debt free, and properly protected.

Because we see the need for education, we are offering FREE one to two hour classes every month on different topics such as INVESTING, RETIREMENT, and GETTING OUT OF DEBT. Our company is focused on teaching people how money works right at the client’s kitchen table in the comfort of their own home. The education we provide individuals allows them to make IMPORTANT financial descions about their future.

Please pray for our Paso Robles office as we want to help as many people as we can to get out of debt and start their road to financial freedom! Because of the state of our economy, there are thousands of individuals who need our help. We are also looking for self-motivated individuals who are looking for a full or part-time career. No experience needed! We will train you!

For more information, you can contact us at 805-464-6664 or stop by and see us at 715 24^th Street, Suite R, Paso Robles, California.

RUBEN RUIZ

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 07 Jul 2012 23:20:00 +0000

Hi, my name is Ruben. I've been living on the Central Coast for the last ten years. Early in my life, I was given the gift of a college education from my parents who believed that higher education was one of the greatest investments a person could receive. Spending several years getting an architectural degree has been one of my greatest accomplishments in my life. However, I felt most of the knowledge that I received was only useful to a small sector of my life.

I came across the Primerica opportunity early in my career. I instantly fell in love with the reality that I could own my own business by helping everyone I knew become financially independent. In the few months that I spent learning the business, I was able to transfer key strategies and information to those closest in my life. The implementation of such concepts has helped dozens of individuals with real experiences that often come across one’s life.

Primerica has given me the opportunity to help those who are in financial need -- from simple solutions to more advanced strategies. Primerica has provided me with a home away from home, filled with extended family who have one thing in common -- helping hard working families like YOURS become debt free and financially independent. Our team effort and wide range of knowledge has given us the tools to help you realize your goals and dreams. But our greatest gift to you is that you will never be alone in your journey towards financial freedom.

I invite everyone to join us in our quest. More importantly, I wish everyone a prosperous and successful life. We’ll see you at the top!

JUAN ESPINOZA

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 07 Jul 2012 23:20:00 +0000

Hi, my name is Juan Gabriel Espinoza. I was born in Mexico and attended school in Mexico until my second year of high school and at that time I decided to leave Mexico and move to California. In September 1993, at the age of seventeen, I moved to Cambria, California. I enrolled in English classes at Cuesta College to improve my communication skills while working at a restaurant until 2009. I continued my English classes after I married and continued and completed my English classes when my first child started school.

My employer, Mr. Blume, owner of the restaurant where I was employed, offered to send me to Culinary Arts classes and offered to pay for part of my education. Life has many challenges and I am not sure what the future holds for me as I have had two surgeries to remove two brain tumors. I am not sure if I will be able to continue my experience in the restaurant business.

Around 2007, Kevin and Dottie Gracie sat down with me and showed me how life insurance protected families and explained the benefits of a retirement account. I decided to open my retirement account at the time, because I could see how my parents and other friends at the age of sixty-two and older had no money to live on.

Shortly after that, my first tumor was discovered and my first surgery was performed. Now I do not qualify for life insurance. At that time I did not understand how important it is to protect the family as you do not know what the future holds for you. I understand now how important it is to share my experience with others and for them to remember their loved ones. Do not leave your family unprotected! You must plan for your future and your family's future. Because of my health issues, I have decided to join Primerica and do the business opportunity. Now I can share my own personal experience and teach the people the importance of the services that Primerica offers such as:

Protecting your family from unseen events in your life.
Saving for the present and the future.
Becoming debt free. Owing nothing!

Because of my own personal experience, I beg you to please think about your family now, your future, and your family's future. Do not pass by the opportunity to show your family how much you love them by doing what is right!

I am presently studying to get my State Life Insurance License so I can help people understand how important it is to protect their family.

Do not leave yourself and your family unprotected. It is important to do the right thing!!! DO IT NOW!!

CHRISTINE JOHNSON

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 07 Jul 2012 23:20:00 +0000

Hi there! My name is Christine. I’ve lived on the Central Coast almost all of my life and consider myself a “native” to this wonderful area. I was attending Cal Poly State University San Luis Obispo full-time when I became a member of the Primerica family. I graduated from Cal Poly in December 2002 with my Bachelor’s Degree in Liberal Studies and Childhood Development and had high hopes of starting my career in education. However, due to the downward economy and several schools closing, teaching jobs were scarce.

I soon discovered that I was on a different path than I had originally intended. I focused my teaching abilities on educating people about how money works. Rather than teaching a classroom of 20-30 students, I found myself teaching people how money works while sitting at their kitchen table. I’m so grateful to work with such an amazing company as Primerica and for the opportunity to earn an income and build a business. The gratification I receive after showing families the light at the end of their dark tunnel is more than I could ask for.

Primerica provides a complimentary "Financial Needs Analysis" to each client to show them where they are today and what they need to do to achieve their financial goals and dreams. After providing my clients with such an informative tool, I know they are on their way to financial success! Primerica has given me the opportunity to build a business while learning how to save money, get out of debt, and properly protect my family and nest egg. Everyone needs to know the concepts Primerica teaches!

We are on a mission to spread the awareness of how money works and to teach people the simple financial concepts in order to live a financially stable life. Please pray for Primerica and for the expansion of our local office in Paso Robles, California.

Thank you and God bless!

BETTER DADS

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 05 Jun 2012 05:49:00 +0000

Bestselling author and speaker Rick Johnson: "I believe families, communities, and our society can grow stronger when parents begin to realize the unique power and influence we have in the lives of our sons and daughters. This goal is reflected both in the books I've written and through Better Dads, a fathering skills ministry that now equips both men and women to become better parents, spouses, and leaders."

Better Dads is a fathering skills organization dedicated to helping people in the community by offering education in fathering, parenting, and family relationships. We believe that good fathers and good men make a difference in our society. However, we recognize that people who have grown up without a positive male influence in their lives do not understand how to pass that legacy on to the next generation. Foundationally, we believe changes will happen through promoting and championing responsible fatherhood in men, growing boys to become good husbands and fathers, and providing positive male role models and mentors for fatherless boys.

God has endowed fathers with the awesome power to influence people’s lives—for good or bad—for generations merely by the things they do and say today. You may not think you are all that special, but your children desperately need what only you can give them—a father.

Better Dads was founded by author and speaker, Rick Johnson. Rick's books have expanded his ministry to include influencing the whole family with life-changing insights for men and women on parenting, marriage, and personal growth. Inspiring and equipping through innovative multimedia presentations and seminars, Rick's resources, methods, and personal approach have been transforming men, women, and their families for over nine years.

THE PROVISION ROOM

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Wed, 29 Feb 2012 23:14:00 +0000

THE PROVISION ROOM

Kristina Evans

and

Daja Gombojav

Kristina is wife to Jordan, mother of two, professional chef, and fitness instructor.

Daja is wife to Gana, mother of seven, childbirth educator, and doula.

Both Kristina and Daja are stay-at-home, homeschooling moms, whose passions are home and hearth.

The Provision Room is where two friends, Kristina and Daja, blog about food, frugality, and being prepared. Click here and take a look around! You can track our progress of transforming our messy and not-too-well planned pantries into abundant storehouses (without increasing our food budgets!), get healthy menu plans and recipes, and even take a stop in the prayer closet to spend some time praying for your family. Don’t forget to meet our merry band of homemaking readers in the Apron Brigade! Be sure to “Follow” the page because there’s new stuff all the time.

Daja: "Kristina and I have been friends for about four years. As Anne said of Diana, she’s a kindred spirit.

"It’s truly a treasure when you meet someone who shares your passions. In my case–my children, my home, and cheese. We both love cheese. Oh, and bread. Homemade bread with amazing crust. And chocolate. Good chocolate, don’t try to buy us off with a Hershey bar. We want the real stuff. And while you’re out, pick out a nice bottle of wine to go with the bread and cheese. Thanks, honey."

2 Moms, 1 Mission

To prepare our homes—kitchens, pantries, and gardens—to be ready in case of emergencies or unexpected life changes. To do so, we will not increase our food budgets, nor cause our family to subsist on bread and water. We will strive for the following ideals:

~Real Food
We will not recommend you go out and buy food-like substances just because they have a shelf life. We will learn to make Real Food last.

~Organic, local and sustainable whenever possible
This is not always possible, but is a lot more possible than people think. We’ll try to show you how we feed our families while being true to our values.

~Frugality
We will search out things that are genuinely good deals and not just short term solutions. We will strive to be good stewards of the family finances.

~Environmentally friendly
We will try to find ways to store our food and stock our pantries without resorting to a bunch of disposables that overfill already overfull landfills.

~Transparency

We will not act like we have all the answers and will show you our mistakes and learn to laugh at them!

UNLIMITED CHIROPRACTIC

Correa Chiropractic

945 Spring St. #11

Paso Robles

805-674-0848

God has no hands…

…So He uses my hands.

I move the bone, and God does the healing!

Meet Dr. Joel Correa and his family.

Joel and Sarah-Kate have been married seven years and have four children-- two biologically and two by the gift of adoption. They are passionate about their faith, chiropractic, music and the arts, adoption, and home education.

Diego (6), Rhema (3)

Deonte (4), Donovan (3)

Joel is a University of Southern California alum. He graduated Cum Laude from Cleveland Chiropractic College in Los Angeles. Joel has been practicing on the Central Coast since 2002.

Why is chiropractic your passion? Because chiropractic changed my life as a young man. And when I realized that there was a healing art that could help in changing people’s lives the way it changed mine, I knew that this was the profession for me.

What’s your favorite part of practicing? The chiropractic miracles that I see happen all the time.

Like what? Kids with ear infections no longer needing ear tubes or mega doses of antibiotics. Kids with asthma who were on many inhalers, now breathing freely and being active. Pregnant mothers whose babies are breech, turning naturally. Women who weren’t able to get pregnant previously, now being able to conceive. I could go on and on.

Do you take insurance? No, I don’t take health insurance, because these days it’s not about health. It should be called “sick insurance”. Most insurances have very high deductible and co-pays, and because of that reason I have re-structured my fees. I want to make my services accessible and more affordable for everyone.

The majority of chiropractors charge by the visit, which is between $40 - $80 a visit. For the same amount of a visit or two, you can see me for a monthly fee -- with unlimited care! So really, you’re paying less than your deductible and co-pays with your insurance provider! But, that’s only for people who want to save money. If you’d like for me to bill your insurance and pay me more per visit using your co-pays, then you have that option, too. J

To what do you owe your successful business? The Lord—His business, His way. Tithing. Support from my wife and family.

Top 10 Reason To Make Joel Correa, D.C. Your Family Chiropractor:

1. I’m a Principled Chiropractor, and I won’t play Medical Doctor with you or your family.

2. No expensive start-up fees or expensive care plans.

3. $20 New Patient Offer! And if you like me, continue for as low as $49-$119 a month for unlimited chiropractic adjustments.

4. We accept all patients regardless of condition, age, or finances.

5. You’ll feel great, you’ll be healthier, and you’ll feel relaxed after getting adjusted.

6. Chiropractic adjustments are safe, gentle, and very comfortable!

7. You’re tired of taking drugs, shots, and pills and you want to see if there is a better way to health.

8. We won’t put you in any silly gowns, or try to sell you supplements or recruit you into any Multilevel Marketing.

9. It is our philosophy that I take care of God’s people, and God takes care of us!!!

10. Don’t wait until you are in a 911 situation or have a life threatening disease or condition to start being concerned about your health.

“If you’re sick or in pain, I can help you. I will always have time for you. Please call or tell someone you love that they don’t have to suffer anymore.

"If you have never been to a chiropractor, or haven’t been in a long time, then take this offer as God’s way of opening a door for you and call.” – Joel Correa, D.C.

The Power that made the body heals the body; it happens no other way.

MOTORGOSPEL MINISTRIES

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Mon, 24 Oct 2011 07:01:00 +0000

We are praying for the prosperity and the success

of MotorGospel Ministries.

Not just for Aaron Schwartzbart,

but for every driver and kid involved in racing.

The Fastest Pulpit In The West

At MOTORGOSPEL Ministries, the threefold mission is to love God, love their neighbors, and make a joyful noise with the John 3:16 car. Aaron Schwartzbart can be seen preaching and piloting the "Fastest Pulpit in the West" at racetracks throughout the United States. Together, Aaron and the LS1-powered Porsche have stood on the National Auto Sport Association championship podium five times, taking either second or third in their division every season from 2005 through 2009.

Aaron Schwartzbart

As a guy who should have been dead or in prison many times over for his street racing (before meeting Jesus in 1991), Aaron has a special place in his heart for speed freaks. His specific duties with MotorGospel range from chapel services to in-car driving instruction to hospital visitation. One of his goals is to see all street racing related fatalities eliminated from Southern California.

Aaron and Tere Schwartzbart

May God always give him grace for the race

and may Christ always be seen in his face.

1) No Hidden Agenda Aaron's controversial theology book challenges God's church to walk in sincerity, no matter what the cost. It is theologically meaty, but aimed at the average guy in the pew. It is virtually guaranteed to provoke thought and lively dialogue whether in the classroom, the cell group, or the coffee shop.

2) "Street Racer" Aaron's scorching anti-street-racing rap single
produced by Conley Abrams formerly of Death Row Records.

3) Makin' some joyful noise. See John 3:16 (the car) in action!

4) At speed

5) Shocking radio debut bringing the Gospel

to one of the most irreverent secular radio stations in Los Angeles.

6) Anti-street-racing PSA.

7) Some kind words from a friend.

Nature's Touch Nursery & Harvest is a specialty plant nursery and local grocery store. They only sell local within California, certified organic, and naturally grown produce. The naturally grown produce has to be grown locally and comes with a soil analysis to guarantee that they are farmed with sustainable practices. Everything that Nature's Touch puts on the shelves comes with research, quality, and the most that they can get for your dollar. They also sell local beef, lamb, pork, chicken, eggs, cheese, milk, cream, yogurt, ice cream and breads. They are an "all in season" produce store. In California, we are blessed to have incredible fresh food all year long -- from berries in the early summer to the citrus and greens in the dead of winter.

Owner Melanie Blankenship (right)

and sister-in-law Theresa (left)

Melanie's story: "Nature's Touch Nursery & Harvest was started in August of 2001. It was started on a whim. Before I opened, I had my wholesale plant nursery in production and was working for Windrose Farm selling plants and organic produce at our local farmers market. I was also filling in for other farmers at market. From Peter Bigsby (Hydroponic Produce),to Judy Schuke (Pear tree Farms and Gardens). Before starting my wholesale plant nursery in 1998, I was the store and nursery manager at Sycamore Herb Farm in Paso Robles. Throughout all my employment, I used my experiences and the courses I was taking to educate myself on sustaining a lifestyle I could create with my own means.

"The whim was because I had learned the importance of supporting and eating local foods, but was finding it hard to do so at our local farmer’s market. With large scale corporate farms running the little hard working farms out of market, I was finding it hard to feed my family they way I had learned to. At this time, sales started to decrease for my wholesale plant nursery. So I started calling around to my customers and asked what I could do to gain the sales back and everyone told me that although my plants are of good quality, they could not sell the produce that my plants produced due to the lack of shelf life, people not knowing what our veggies or herbs were, or not knowing how important is to plant natives into their landscape. So with this in my thoughts, I went out looking to see how I could possibly start a business to educate and to help keep my local growers growing and to help my community understand and have the accessibility to good local plants and food.

"Through this process, Nature’s Touch is keeping a majority of the farmers I set out to help in business. We have also helped start Gold Coast Meats and local meat chicken, and egg producer, Red Branch Nursery which was the wholesale part of Nature’s Touch. Due to the store growing in popularity and the birth of my two children (Cody 5 & Savanah 2), I was finding it hard to keep up with the growing part of the nursery, so I handed it over to my brother and sister-in-law (J.R. and Teresa) to own and operate under the consult of Nature’s Touch.

"Nature's Touch believes in supporting local farmers, organic farmers, and the community. We decided to put together a program similar to a CSA program. The only difference is that we will not be growing the produce ourselves, but will be buying produce from local farmers and farmers throughout California. There are three different baskets available for a weekly pick-up. Each week, these baskets will have a list of all the farmers used, a different recipe, and in-season produce picked within the last 24 hours. Here at Nature's Touch, we believe in eating the freshest food possible and the easiest way to do that is by supporting our local farmers. With the baskets, the customer has the option to add meat, cheese, or other dairy products for an additional cost. By committing to one or more months, there is a substantial savings on each of these options. Please ask us about our special pricing. There is also the option to postpone a week's pick-up or to pick up every other week. Baskets are available for pick-up each Tuesday or Friday, after 11:30 am."

ReRe Taylor and Angel Tree

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Mon, 03 Oct 2011 07:01:00 +0000

Minister ReRe Taylor

Minister ReRe Taylor has a heart for the poor and broken. She has served The Revival Center for many years and has headed up the Angel Tree Ministry faithfully for several years. Each year, she rallies people together and provides Christmas gifts for the children and families of the incarcerated.

ANGEL TREE STORY

Every child has a story. For 1.7 million American children, that story is filled with the abandonment, loneliness, and shame that comes from having a mom or dad in prison. For many, it may also include following their parents down the same destructive road to incarceration.

Angel Tree is a ministry that reaches out to the children of inmates and their families with the love of Christ. This unique program gives your church an opportunity to share Christ’s love by helping to meet the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of the families of prisoners.

Angel Tree Christmas works by connecting parents in prison with their children through the delivery of Christmas gifts. Every Christmas, thousands of churches help brighten the lives of countless children by purchasing, wrapping and delivering gifts on behalf of their incarcerated parent—not only delivering a message of love from parent to child, but also the true meaning of Christmas—the good news of Jesus Christ.

But Angel Tree doesn’t end with Christmas. That first Christmas connection can be the beginning of a rewarding ongoing relationship with these children and their families. Continue your Angel Tree ministry throughout the year and God will use your church to help these children and their families grow in their faith, strengthen their relationships with imprisoned parents, and fulfill the purposes that God has for their lives.

This year Minister ReRe has been collecting cans and plastics and encouraging others to do the same. The proceeds will be used to be a blessing to these familes. Should you have a desire to participate, send donations to Alpha Beth Ministries, PO Box 3415, Paso Robles, CA 93447. Every dollar earmarked for Angel Tree will go to providing Christmas gifts for these children and families. You will receive a tax deductible receipt or you can donate directly to the Angel Tree Ministry.

PLEASE PRAY FOR THE PROSPERITY AND SUCCESS OF ANGEL TREE AND FOR RERE'S MINISTRY TO THE ANGEL TREE CHILDREN AND FAMILIES.

THE MESSAGE OF CHRSIT MUST BE PREACHED AND TO A CHILD THAT MESSAGE MAY BE RECEIVED THROUGH A GIFT. PLEASE HELP!
