---------------------------------------------- 1/27
I can tell you this: PERSONAL INTERVIEWS WILL STILL BE THE CRUX OF THIS MINISTRY. God has gifted me in this and I must use these gifts for Gods people. The interviews are always centered on peoples testimonies and how God has worked for them. I did this for two decades, interviewing thousands of Christians for local TV. Ricky Ricardo Jr., The girl from Columbine who prayed, the missionary who was instantly prayed for from across the globe, the prayer team that had people raised from the dead are some of the highlights that I remember.
1 Peter 4:10 10 Just as each one of you has received a special gift [a spiritual talent, an ability graciously given by God], employ it in serving one another as [is appropriate for] good stewards of God’s multi-faceted grace [faithfully using the diverse, varied gifts and abilities granted to Christians by God’s unmerited favor].
I will be still doing interviews with Christians of stature, referred to us by others. I will still keep up the email and Facebook parts of this Ministry. The interviews and any public appearances to support it, will increase. The experiences and willingness to testify will be of primary importance in the interviews of those referred to us.
We will have two basic teams for the interview ministry:
• VIDEO TEAM A. Will do personal interviews, person to person for our cameras on locations of God’s choosing.
• VIDEO TEAM B. Will do personal interviews over the internet, (like Zoom) for our long distance sake where we cannot do it person to person except by this technology.
WITH OUR ANNOUCEMENT ON THE 26th, WE HAVE MADE THE FOLLOWING APPOINTMENTS:
(Note: All volunteers are considered “Special Advisors” who will have a say in improving the Ministry.)
1. IMBRAHIM KITHAMULIKO <ibrahimkithamuliko@gmail.com> IMBRAHIM asked for my friendship on Facebook and since has been an amazing encouragement to me. He is a pastor in Uganda and opened up to me about needing “A Spiritual Father”. He even volunteered to reach all of Africa with my messages. He knows many pastors on that continent. So he is a Special Advisor, for Encouragement and Envoy to Africa for us.
A. Under his guidance will be Aggrey Makokha who is our lead Pastor to Kenya. Aggrey has been working with me for years and in my place took in Pastor Jim Pitts for almost a month to evangelize his area. Aggrey has also been on Michal Grimm’s Northeast Men’s groups Thursday Zoom Meetings at 7 pm. This, even though the time was 3 am in Kenya!
2. JEFF VOSE jbvose@yahoo.com has been working with us for several months, handling the technology on and creating our zoom interviews on You Tube and Facebook. I am looking to establish a presence on God Tube first as they seem to lack interviews and will not kick us off for something others may consider controversial. Jeff, will be a Special Advisor and Technology Chief, handling our outreach through various technologies.
3. NORINE HODGES will be making contacts for us prior to the Zoom interviews. She had been on my heart for weeks doing this job. She has held director positions at various school systems and is very open and articulate. She is also a great encourager and been in the faith for a long, long time. I am sure that she will also help to keep us professional on the phone. She is also one of my sister-in-laws. She lives on a farm in upstate New York with and near her family. She will be a great asset to us. She will be a Special Advisor and Initial Communications Person, specializing in Zoom interviews.
A. She will share her job with MICHAEL GRIMM brothermichael24@gmail.com , who God miraculously put me in touch with many years ago. Michael says he will “do anything he can to help our ministry” and this is a good starting place for him. Michael has maintained a Men’s Ministry for several decades expanding its reach to include the Northeastern Parts of the USA at present. He is an excellent event planner and maintains a weekly mailing list to hundreds of Christian men and sponsors Christian Men’s Retreats every year. Michael is our Special Advisor and Initial Contact For Zoom Interviews and Special Events.
B. While we do not have a local person to make phone calls, yet and the ministry for it is still developing. If you know a good Christian person that loves the phone, let me know. My good friend JACK COLLINSjohn.collins8@icloud.com has volunteered to run camera for us in local interviews. I put him here until we develop a local phone caller and lead building person. So Jack will be a Special Advisor and Camera Operator for the Ministry. In this, I am going to try to get back on cable and see what advantages it may have for us. I am still working on it. We will also take these videos up to the on line (God Tube etc.) accounts.
