She has worked collaboratively with medical professionals and every level of law enforcement\, including providing on-site crisis support during over a dozen sex trafficking sting operations. She has been honorably recognized for her work to reduce violence and to respond to those who’ve experienced violence. Geony is Founder and Executive Director of Value Unconditional\, a Christian ministry helping adults heal the wounds of yesterday so they can fully embrace the gift of today. She is passionate about seeing the Holy Spirit transcend human limitations in overcoming trauma\, crisis and harm to help people walk in the fullness of who God created them to be.\n\nGeony emailed me the following that God has been speaking to her: \nI was in Jeremiah and Matthew yesterday\, focused a lot on acknowledging\, confessing\, repenting and receiving peace. God wants His children to have peace\, and so often they don’t realize what they are missing out on by refusing to acknowledge their sin. In Matthew 10\, verse 26 stood out to me. I have pasted it below. This is slightly off topic\, but still in alignment with the overall theme. \nMatthew 10: 26 “So do not be afraid of them\, for there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed\, or hidden that will not be made known.” \nIt is so important to stay open and honest before the Lord. Confession is not negotiable. There are people experiencing torment/unrest purely because they are working so hard to resist acknowledging their error. They don’t want to be corrected. Instead\, they justify their sin. It is like swimming against the current\, instead of simply repenting and receiving true rest. Why labor in vain\, working in and by your own strength? \nGeony Rucker can be reached at geony@valueunconditional.org \n********************************************************************* \nMike Davisson will share with us about Father’s Club ministry.\n\nMike Davisson spent 29 years at AT&T starting as a call center employee who moved to retail sales to retail management and then transitioned to the business sales side of the organization.  He has been married for 23 years and has two children attending K-State University.  On paper\, everything was going right. But family\, faith\, and a growing sense of purpose started pulling him in a different direction.\nMike’s story isn’t about having it all figured out. It’s about what happens when you stop chasing Your plan and start believing in God’s plan.  That journey and transition has lead Mike to the role of Executive Director of  Father’s Club\, an organization dedicated to strengthening families through father engagement in schools and communities across Kansas City. \nMike’s life verse is Ephesians 5:25. He uses this not only as a benchmark of how he interacts with his wife\, but in all aspects of relationships as he tries to be more Christ-like in all he does. \nMike Davisson can be reached at mdavisson@fathersclub.org \n****************************************** \nIf have any questions\, you can reach me at eagle.eye.ent@sbcglobal.net or 816-215-5826. \nHave a Kingdom Day Living Life with no Regrets\, \nLarry \nMM Communicator

I spent the first 39 years of my life chasing after money\, power\, and influence.” \n\nIn the thirty-nine-year process\, I was locked up in ten different states. I rode over 2500 miles in handcuffs\, leg irons\, and waist chains. I have been in riots in prisons\, escaped once from prison\, and have been in over twenty-five car and motorcycle wrecks—eight of which I should have died in. I overdosed several times and had two heart attacks from doing cocaine.      \nI got involved with the Kansas City underworld and ultimately became an enforcer for them. I liked what I saw in the lifestyle of the guys I was working for\, and determined in my mind to become one of them.\n​​On April 15\, 1983\, while sitting in an old farmhouse out in the country\, I said\, “God\, if you’re real\, and you can change me\, I will live my life for you”. I have not done an illegal drug since 1983. I’ve not taken a drink of alcohol\, smoked a cigarette\, or kissed another woman except my wife since 1983. God has given me a peace I never knew was possible. \n​I feel like the richest man on earth because He gave me back my wife. How much would you pay to get your wife back? God gave me back my four children. How much would you pay to get your kids back? He gave me back my mind. Before I gave my life to the Lord\, I couldn’t carry on a conversation without forgetting what I was saying in the middle of a sentence because my mind was so burnt up with drugs and alcohol. How much would you pay to get your mind back?\n​God kept me from going to prison. How much would you pay to keep from going to prison? He delivered me from drugs and alcohol. How much would you pay to get off drugs? It’s free . . . just ask Christ into your life.\n​That moment on April 15\, 1983\, changed my life forever. Thanks to Jesus\, I will never be the same.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nwww.youtube.com/@BillCorumPrisonPower \n\n\n\n\n\nBill Corum can be reached at www.billcorum.com \n****************************************** \nIf have any questions\, you can reach me at eagle.eye.ent@sbcglobal.net or 816-215-5826. \nHave a Kingdom Day Living Life with no Regrets\, \nLarry \nMM Communicator

He later secured his MBA from Keller Graduate School\, with emphasis in Technology Management.  He met his wife of 45 years\, Marilyn\, in college while participating in a dynamic campus ministry program. Shortly after college\, he and Marilyn spent 7 years working on campuses in ministry with a variety of local churches. Over the next 35 years\, he spent his career in Sales and Finance\, primarily with Canon USA.  Brad retired in January 2025. \nBrad and Marilyn joined the Kansas City Eden Village team in 2022 after reaching out to Linda Brown\, a family friend\, in Springfield where Eden Village began. They were inspired by the Browns\, leading to a desire to start an Eden Village in Kansas City. Upon speaking with the Browns\, they were excited to learn that an Eden Village was already being developed here and quickly joined forces with them. They are thrilled to be a part of this ministry to provide homes and hope to the homeless of Kansas City and so Kansas City can be a “city where no one sleeps outside.” \nEden Village offers the unhoused an opportunity for safe and secure housing\, so that they can then focus on their mental health\, disability services and personal development.  All of our activities focus on 3 program initiatives: 1) Safe\, affordable and secure housing program following the “housing first” principle; 2) Good neighbor program encouraging and facilitating community events and activities that promote being good neighbors; 3) Health improvement program that focuses on personal development and good mental and physical health\, including providing of various wrap-around services conducted by local service providers. \nBrad Simpson can be reached at president@edenvillagekc.org \n********************************************************************* \nTony Villanueva will share with us about Catching Hope and a Future ministry. \n \n  \nTony and Dora Villanueva are the parents of two adult sons and one adult daughter\, and the grandparents of a two and a half year old granddaughter. They answered the Lord’s call to be missionaries in 2005\, first as Associate Pastor\, then as Child Evangelism Fellowship missionaries from 2007-2023. The Lord led them out of CEF and into starting a ministry called Catching Hope and a Future. The verses that God has used to sustain them through the years is 1 Thessalonians 5:24 and Psalm 27:13 (NKJV) \nLately\, the verse in the Bible that has been on my heart is John 21:12a\, “Come and Dine”. The fellowship that our Lord offers to the disciples that day on the sea shore and to us right where we are is so encouraging and life changing. To think that the God of the universe invites us to be so close to Him and enjoy His presence is incredible and inspiring. \nCatching Hope and a Future is a ministry of encouragement for South Sudanese youth living in Refugee Settlement Camps of Northern Uganda. Their daily life is a struggle to survive. They hang on to the hope of their Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and they long to complete their education and find a better life for their families and countrymen. “Hope deferred makes the heart sick\, but a dream fulfilled is a tree of life.” Proverbs 13:12  \nThey dream of becoming teachers\, nurses\, doctors\, engineers\, missionaries and social workers for the glory of God. But they face what can be an insurmountable challenge of paying their school fees so they can continue and complete their education. \nCatching Hope and a Future is a ministry that is committed to helping them realize their dreams. Furthermore\, we are passionate about the spiritual health of the students. We encourage them to be disciples who make disciples\, who in turn make disciples. “You have heard me teach things that have been confirmed by many reliable witnesses. Now teach these truths to other trustworthy people who will be able to pass them on to others.”                2 Timothy 2:2  \nTony and Dora Villanueva can be reached at tonyanddora93@gmail.com \n****************************************** \nIf have any questions\, you can reach me at eagle.eye.ent@sbcglobal.net or 816-215-5826. \nHave a Kingdom Day Living Life with no Regrets\, \nLarry \nMM Communicator

We began a house church in 1989 as a way to reach the lost in our neighborhood and beyond. I have had the privilege of traveling to 74 countries and seen Jesus heal and save many. Most mission work has been in Nepal\, Bhutan\, and India. \nIn 2015 we led a lady to salvation in the doorway of Walmart. She was highly demonized\, and this started us on a journey of binding up the broken-hearted and setting the captives free (Luke 4:18) as they obey the Lord’s prayer. (Matthew 6). Family and Freedom Fighters is where Jesus had called me to spend most of my time\, talent\, and resources. \nHobbies; \nGrandchildren \nThe lost \nThe Bikers at the Forge \nMarty Breeze prison ministries \nBarn Ministry \nRVing and traveling with my adorable wife \nMy life verses are Romans 12:1-2 \nCurrently studying in Ephesians 6 and Acts 15 \nMy recent revelation is Exodus 21:1-5 \nI am rejoicing in seeing the gospel of Jesus in the Alaph and the Tav all throughout the Old Testament. The Alaph is the Law and the Tav is the nail that held Jesus to the cross. It is also the beginning and the end\, (the Alpha and the Omega\, Completeness) The Hebrews wrote the law on the door post of every home. This is a beautiful picture of Jesus allowing the Father to pierce His ear in covenant on the doorpost\, shedding His blood that covered the law fulfilling it because we could not keep it. It is also a picture of the invitation to each of us to become a love slave to God by allowing him to pierce us on the law we could not keep. \nMike Jensen can be reached at mikeej99@hotmail.com \n\n\n********************************************************************* \nWade Brown will share with us an update on the PastorServe ministry.\n\n \n\nPrior to joining the PastorServe team Wade was the Sr. Director of Pastoral Ministries at Focus on the Family in CO.

I received my BFA in Visual Communications from MO State. I worked as a Graphic Designer for Medical Consulting Group in Springfield\, MO\, prior to starting my own company\, Design Pfile\, Inc. When invited to become a Creative Director for LFE Institute\, I became more selective with the jobs I accepted with Design Pfile\, Inc. As Creative Director\, I was responsible for hiring\, training and supervising staff\, along with purchasing hardware and software for LFE. I was blessed to attend two “HOW Design” conferences during my tenure there. \nWe moved to Lees Summit in 2006\, and I was awarded “2007 New Member of the Year” for the Lee’s Summit Chamber of Commerce. Opportunities with the Lee’s Summit Chamber included planning the “Emerging Entrepreneurs” conferences\, founding the “Chamber Young Professionals” and being selected to sit on the Board of Directors. Also around that time I designed the logo for Lee’s Summit Cares “Community of Character.” \nWhen my oldest was 4 months old\, I stepped back from the business professional world to be a full-time Wife and Mom. \nIn 2019\, as a mom of 4\, I founded Faithfull by Design\, with the motto of “We fight trafficking in a beautiful way.” I created jewelry and apparel with my “h4: hunger for hope. home. heaven. help. healing. her. Him” logo\, then sold these items and donated the proceeds to organizations fighting sex trafficking in KC. \nAlong the way\, I fell in love with an art medium called “alcohol ink\,” and began creating unique\, whimsy\, vibrant and nature-inspired artwork. I brought together the “h4” symbol with my alcohol ink art for many products. In addition to selling my art and donating the proceeds to organizations such as ReHope and Relentless Pursuit Outreach & Recovery (RPOR)\, I host “Art & Awareness” events such as film screenings about trafficking and “Ink Adventure” (learn to paint with alcohol ink) classes. \nToday\, our shop (www.faithfullbydesign.com/shop) has prints\, note cards\, bookmarks\, apparel\, jewelry and home decor for sale. I am constantly adding new prints and products. \nOne of my favorite Bible Verses is Psalm 46:1\, “God is a very present help in time of need.” \nAlicia Ruhl can be reached at alicia@faithfullbydesign.com \n********************************************************************* \nRex Barber will share with us an update on Engineering Ministries International. \n \n\nMy name is Rex Barber\, and I’d like to share a bit about my journey with EMI (Engineering Ministries International)\, a ministry dedicated to supporting the global Church on the international mission field. \nMy first mission trip as a believer was to China with my church small group in 1988. That experience was life-changing\, and I’ve been deeply involved in missions ever since. My earliest missions work was local\, serving in the Colorado Springs and Kansas City areas with Habitat for Humanity. \nIn 1994\, I volunteered with EMI on a project in Zacapa\, Guatemala\, working on a large orphanage campus. That trip set the stage for my long-term calling with EMI—a ministry I’ve now been part of for over 30 years\, including 26 years on staff. \nIn the fall of 1999\, I joined EMI’s staff at our headquarters in Colorado Springs. For more than 22 years\, I served as a full-time project leader\, guiding teams of architects and engineers on short-term mission trips. EMI partners with Christian ministries already making a Kingdom impact\, helping them plan and develop their facilities—ranging from hospitals\, seminaries\, and schools to agricultural projects and more. Since joining EMI\, I’ve traveled to over 50 countries and conducted mission work in 35 countries. My work has taken me throughout Africa\, Southeast Asia\, Central America\, and the Caribbean\, with a few projects in Europe and Central Asia\, including some in more closed-access countries. \nOver the last two years\, my focus has shifted to serving as an MPD (Ministry Partner Development) coach. In this role\, I train and equip new and existing staff\, interns\, and fellows to build strong support bases so they have the resources needed to sustain the ministry God has called them to. \nRex joined staff with EMI in 1999. He is ordained as a Gospel Worker and has a calling to the nations for Christ. \nProfessional Training & Experience \n\nBachelor of Architecture\, Kansas State University\, Manhattan\, KS\, USA\, 1979\nAn Architect with various design firms in Colorado\, Kansas and Missouri\, 1979-1996\nOwner and founder of\, No Place like Home\, Architecture & Design in Overland Park\, KS\, 1996-2001\nRex comes to EMI with 20+ years’ experience in commercial and residential design.  Before Rex’s architecture experience\, he grew up and worked on the family farm/ranch in central Kansas.\n\nFamily \nRex met Sally while working on a Habitat for Humanity home in the inner city of Kansas City\, MO\, in 1990. They were married in 1992 and have two adult daughters. Rex and Sally live in the North Gate area of Colorado Springs. \nRex Barber can be reached at rex.barber@emiworld.org \n****************************************** \nIf have any questions\, you can reach me at eagle.eye.ent@sbcglobal.net or 816-215-5826. \nHave a Kingdom Day Living Life with no Regrets\, \nLarry \nMM Communicator

Whether he’s leading a Discovery Bible Study behind bars\, connecting with folks at a rodeo\, or just sharing stories over coffee. Chad loves helping people discover their calling in Christ and take steps toward a transformed life. In his early 20’s\, Chad rode bulls and it was at a bull riding school where he first encountered Jesus in a way that changed everything. That same gritty\, real-life faith now fuels his heart for walking with others through their own discovery in mission. He and his wife\, Allison\, have two grown kids\, Zane and Zoe\, and together they’ve served in ministry for over two decades. God led Chad and Allison to join the DYM team almost 24 years ago and has used all of those ministry experiences of working with youth and co-leading international mission trips plus serving as a rodeo chaplain for 10 years to fuel his desire to see every follower discover their mission.\n  \nWhen he’s not mentoring\, teaching\, or meeting people in unlikely places\, you might find Chad on the pickleball court at the local community center where he enjoys building friendships and living out the Gospel in everyday ways. He also loves spending time with his family\, attending concerts with his daughter or dancing with his wife. He believes ministry is best done through real relationships\, honest conversations\, and consistently showing up with the love of Jesus. \nChad Chambers can be reached at chad@desotoyouthministries.org \n********************************************************************* \nTricia Conley will share with us about the Fresh Start KC ministries. \n \n My name is Tricia Conley.  My husband Gary and I\, along with 5 other team members\, started small nonprofit called Fresh Start KC Ministries in 2020.\n  \nWe are under the umbrella of DYM (Discover Your Mission) in De Soto\, KS. \nOur focus is helping organizations in the greater KC area that are helping individuals transition from homelessness. \nBecause we are a small group with little recourses\, we started seeking out already established nonprofits whose focus is working with individuals seeking to stay off the streets. \n What we do\, is to partner with these organizations through various ways of support. \nFor example\, Fresh Start KC sponsors apartments for residents at Hillcrest Transitional Housing as well as helping with construction/repair needs. \nWe also join in the efforts at Eden Village in Kansas City\, Kansas\, and Homework’s USA in Lawrence\, Kansas. \nThe heart of our group is to help those truly seeking to stay out of homelessness by offering the needed support to those organizations seeking to do just that. \nMy husband Gary and I have owned and operated a Construction company over the last 35 years called Conley Construction\, Inc. We increasingly felt a burden over the years to help those needing help to stay off the streets. \n We use our construction knowledge and wide base of contacts to help support our nonprofit efforts. \nProverbs 3:5-6. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him\, and he will make your paths straight. \nTricia Conley can be reached at gary.tricia@yahoo.com \n****************************************** \nIf have any questions\, you can reach me at eagle.eye.ent@sbcglobal.net or 816-215-5826. \nHave a Kingdom Day Living Life with no Regrets\, \nLarry \nMM Communicator

Along the way\, I’ve met incredible people (and a few characters too)\, but through it all\, God’s grace has been constant.\nWhether as a family man in Olathe\, a professor at Park University\, a board member for several nonprofits\,  a technology executive\, VP of Finance at PMI Midwest\, or leading Hope Kenya\, I’ve seen the hand of God at work. Wisdom has always been my aspiration\, and I hold on to James 1:5 and Matthew 6:33 as reminders to seek Him first—because everything else flows from there. \nWe launched Hope Kenya in 2008\, a Kansas City-based nonprofit partnering with faith communities to serve underserved areas through education\, health\, and service—always with the hope that people would see Christ through our love and actions. \nIntentional planning and strategic projects have helped us witness God move powerfully through His people. Every initiative we take on is treated like a project—with a sponsor\, a clear start and end\, and a defined goal. And in each one\, we’ve seen God’s hand—mkono wa Bwana in Kiswahili. \nNow\, we’re building on that experience with Foundations of Hope\, a new Kansas City-based nonprofit. Our mission is to empower other organizations to build strong foundations for spreading the Gospel. We aim to be a catalyst—helping others fulfill their calling and advance God’s Kingdom. \nJames 1:5 – If any of you lacks wisdom\, let him ask God\, that giveth all men liberally and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him! \n  \nJohn Wilson can be reached at john@kenyapartners.org \n********************************************************************* \n \nLee Jost will update us on NCircle ministry.\nLee Jost was born and raised in Kansas City.  He has been married for over 36 years and is a father and grandfather.  Lee started his career as a minister and continues to pastor a small church in Olathe.  In 2011 Lee and a group of concerned church members saw a gap in services for justice involved families.  They began running a family program designed to help justice involved families grow stronger and more stable.   Many of the people in the program were under employed so in 2012 they began a job training program.  In 2016 Lee launched NCircle\, an independent education based 501c3.  Today they partner with Johnson County Corrections\, Johnson County Community College\, Goodwill of Western Missouri and Eastern Kansas\, the Johnson County Library and local employers to provide justice involved individuals a pathway to training and good jobs.  NCircle\, has served hundreds of families who are impacted by incarceration.  Today the programs provide training for men and women entering the workforce post incarceration through their College of Trades.  Teens under the care of corrections find purpose and direction through Discovery; a workforce discovery program helping teens understand the skilled trades.  In 2022 NCircle launched a pilot partnership with Zephyr Products of Lansing Kansas and Brothers in Blue.  Working with Private Industry and trusted nonprofits\, NCircle is providing soft skills training on the job for work release employees and in partnership with Brothers in Blue hosting a job club that prepares men for employment upon release from prison.  In 2025 NCircle launched StepNext\, a youth mentoring program designed to connect stable adults to justice involved youth in Kansas. Lee currently serves as Executive Director of NCircle and is active in the community and on multiple community boards including the Criminal Justice Advisory Council and the Johnson County Housing and Community Development Advisory Council.\nLee Jost can be reached at lee@ncircle.org \n****************************************** \nIf have any questions\, you can reach me at eagle.eye.ent@sbcglobal.net or 816-215-5826. \nHave a Kingdom Day Living Life with no Regrets\, \nLarry \nMM Communicator

I hope the following bio meets your requirements. I have also attached a picture of Willie and I with a few of our volunteers inside a local juvenile detention center and a handout about Youthfront Pathways.\nAlex Mathew serves as the Director of Youthfront Pathways\, overseeing teen parent and juvenile justice programs that were formerly part of Youth For Christ USA. Alex and his team hosted their first Bible study in a juvenile detention center over 12 years ago with just one volunteer. Today\, Youthfront Pathways serves 240 teens with over 30 volunteers and four staff members across five ministry sites. \nIn 2019\, Alex’s wife\, Andrea\, launched our teen parenting program. This initiative was created in response to countless prayer requests for assistance from young fathers and mothers within the juvenile justice system. Both Alex and Andrea serve in full-time ministry at Youthfront. They live in the urban core of Kansas City\, KS\, with their three sons\, Ezra (16)\, Axel (12)\, and Cyrus (10). \nWillie Johnson III\, our Arise Juvenile Justice Coordinator\, served as a volunteer for four years before joining our staff. Willie coordinates our teams of volunteers to lead ministry at juvenile detention centers across the city. Willie’s wife\, Selita\, serves as a volunteer alongside him\, leading Bible studies with him one to two times per week. \nAlex emailed me the following: The Scripture that has been close to my heart recently is: “If you are faithful in little things\, you will be faithful in large ones. But if you are dishonest in little things\, you won’t be honest with greater responsibilities” (Luke 16:10 NLT). \nAlex Matthew can be reached at amathew@youthfront.com \n****************************************** \nIf have any questions\, you can reach me at eagle.eye.ent@sbcglobal.net or 816-215-5826. \nHave a Kingdom Day Living Life with no Regrets\, \nLarry \nMM Communicator

Currently\, The Sending Project’s key ministry priorities include: Connection Revolution\, Scripture Saturation\, Celebration of the Nations\, and Trauma Healing. \nUnder the banner of Connection Revolution\, Eric hosts a bi-weekly podcast featuring various leaders from the Body of Christ\, building awareness about their ministries and encouraging Kingdom connections. The Connection Revolution ministry also includes several citywide missional networks and other connection ministry efforts. The strategy is this: better Kingdom connection among Jesus followers results in greater advancement of Jesus’ revolutionary truth and love. \nEric enthusiastically reflects: “The Lord brought together a convergence of several key themes to form and continue to shape my ministry calling: missional and cross-cultural ministry\, unity building\, ministry partnerships\, Kingdom networking\, God’s Word\, God’s heart for the nations\, and the citywide Body of Christ working together well.” \nBefore launching The Sending Project\, Eric served at the executive leadership level in the local church context and the nonprofit ministry context for nearly two decades. In total\, he has served at the executive leadership level in the church or para-church context for the past 34 years. \nEric is a big sports fan\, especially KC- area sports: including the Chiefs and the Royals…and\, at the risk of creating division…the nearby Kansas Jayhawks. Eric is quick to emphasize that our unity in Jesus transcends sports rivalries! \nEric and his wife\, Marcia\, live in the KC area\, and their blended family includes four adult children and their spouses\, plus nine grandchildren. To God be the glory! \nEric emailed me the following: The Lord has recently been reminding me of His great heart for the nations. Psalm 67 is one powerful passage among many\, many\, many others in the Bible that relate to this. Psalm 67 is an amazing prayer to the Lord\, asking that His saving power be known “among all nations.” \nHere are the first three verses of Psalm 67: \n1 May God be gracious to us and bless us\nand make his face to shine upon us\, Selah\n2 that your way may be known on earth\,\nyour saving power among all nations.\n3 Let the peoples praise you\, O God;\nlet all the peoples praise you! \nEric Rochester can be reached at eric.rochester@thesendingproject.org. \n********************************************************************* \nDennis Solis will share with us about Christians United for Racial Justice (CURJ) ministry. \nSince restarting CrossPoint Community Church in the late 1990’s\, Dennis Solis has been casting God’s vision and leading CrossPoint on the journey toward becoming a crossing point where diverse people unite to become devoted Christ followers. Pastor Dennis is a clear voice for racial righteousness and social justice as being a true reflection of the love of Christ\, both outside and inside the Church (Matthew 22: 37-40). Leading by example\, he has implemented programs and established events in Kansas City promoting the well-being of children\, youth and families\, as well as racial reconciliation\, through community support and collaboration. \nPastor Solis was instrumental in starting CURJ  (Christians United for Racial Justice).  CURJ is a collaboration of Believers from various churches & organizations who love and follow Jesus and believe God has called the Body of Christ to live in unity and use its prophetic voice to nurture true justice in a multicultural\, pluralistic society. As Christ’s Ambassadors it is our essential witness to model and work for justice to the glory God. \nDennis holds a Master of Divinity degree from Nazarene Theological Seminary and taught graduate level courses on Urban Ministry.  He has served as a pastor in the Church for 40 years.  He and his wife Sherri have been married for 46 years.

Our help is based on the biblical foundation of compassion\, integrity\, and dependence on God. We seek to convey Jesus\, “full of grace and truth\,” (John 1:14) to broken ones seeking mercy. \nLiving Waters is a 20-week closed group for men and women seeking healing in their lives. It is an intensive and unique small group. Ultimately\, we learn how to press into Jesus more deeply\, allowing Him to meet our needs and transform us for His Kingdom purposes. With groups all over the world\, and with over 45 years of ministering God’s healing love\, the Living Waters program is a proven path of healing. \nDSM Care is the newest initiative of Desert Stream Ministries. Offering one-time consultations – in-person or online – providing help and encouragement related to their relationships and/or sexuality. In addition to consultations\, we also offer the following groups: \nCrossCurrent online\, an open 8-week\, Christ-centered support group for men and women seeking truth and grace in their sexuality and relationships. Offered once per quarter\, participants may join anytime during the group. See here for information/registration. \nOasis\, a group for parents\, family\, and friends who desire to be present to their loved-ones who identify with alternative sexual identities. Meeting each month\, in person or online\, see here for information/registration. \nDean has been staff with Desert Stream Ministries since 2001\, he served for 20 years as the National Coordinator for Living Waters in the US. Now serving as the DSM Care Coordinator\, Dean meets individually and in groups\, both in person and online\, working with people from over 40 different nations. \nDean lives in Kansas City\, MO with his wife and son and attends the Vineyard Community Church in Overland Park\, KS.\, where he coordinates the Living Waters program. \nDean emailed me the following: I am recently being encouraged by John 8:31-32 – “If you hold to my teaching\, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free.”  The call to continue digging into God’s word as a source of freedom is not only helpful but key to remaining His disciple. \nCheck out our upcoming Leadership Training. \nDean Greer can be reached at dgreer@desertstream.org\,  816.608.3466 (voice/text) \n********************************************************************* \nDerek Handley will share with us about STRATIA ministry. \n\n\n\n  Derek Handley is a husband to Mikala\, and father to daughters Rowan (age 3) and Briar (age 1). He has worked for a ministry called Character That Counts since May of 2023. He disciples young men in the Kansas City area\, and speaks to men of all ages locally and nationally.\n\nAt the beginning of 2025\, Derek launched a new men’s group called STRATIA. This is a group designed to encourage and challenge young husbands and dads in the Kansas City area. This word STRATIA derives from the Greek and means: band of soldiers\, collective power\, unified front. \nJudges 8:4 says: “Then Gideon and the 300 men who were with him came to the Jordan and crossed over\, weary yet pursuing.” Gideon and his 300 men were exhausted from battle\, they were weary\, but the battle was not over\, so they pursued their enemy despite their weariness. Individually\, these guys would not have been impressive\, but when they were together these weary men became powerful. \nYoung husbands and dads can relate to this phrase “weary yet pursuing”. We are in a great season of life\, but a weary and exhausting season nonetheless. When weariness sets in\, our fleshly response can be to isolate. We isolate ourselves from God and from other Godly men. STRATIA fights this fleshly response of isolation and becomes a collective power with the men around us\, and commits despite the weariness to pursue God nonetheless. \nAt STRATIA\, we desire to be men who lead our families well and grow as disciples of Christ. When you bring men together who all are running after the same thing\, we believe powerful things can happen. We become a STRATIA\, a collective power\, a band of soldiers\, a unified front\, an army of men. \nDerek emailed me the following: I am recently being encouraged by John 8:31-32 – “If you hold to my teaching\, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free.”  The call to continue digging into God’s word as a source of freedom is not only helpful but key to remaining His disciple. \nDerek Handley can be reached at derekhandley95@gmail.com\, 816-876-7151 \n****************************************** \nIf have any questions\, you can reach me at eagle.eye.ent@sbcglobal.net or 816-215-5826. \nHave a Kingdom Day Living Life with no Regrets\, \nLarry \nMM Communicator

It’s a study program rooted in Scripture\, clarifying each believer’s remarkable opportunity to join God in His global purpose. \n\nYOU HAVE AN INTEGRAL ROLE TO PLAY IN GOD’S PLAN.\n\nGod delights when His people respond to His invitation to be a blessing to all peoples of the earth. \nMichael Carroll emailed me the following: \nI’ve recently been added to the Kansas City area as the Area Team Leader for Perspectives. I had the privilege of being able to take the class for the first time in 2022\, and now am excited to be able to walk alongside with others what I experienced. I am a member of the church\, Cross Fellowship in Overland Park\, Kansas\, where much of my time is spent with the other members. I would love for the opportunity to serve the Lord overseas one day in the mission field if that opportunity ever arose\, but for now I enjoy playing whatever part I can in serving in God’s global mission for His Glory\, and trying to encourage others to do the same. \n\nMichael Carroll can be reached at carrollprocess@gmail.com \n********************************************************************* \nMike Morris will share with us about Children’s Evangelistic Ministries\, Ic.\n    \nLocal couple’s ministry reaches children internationally.\nBy Michelle Workman/Nevada Daily Mail (Saturday\, August 15\, 2015)\n\n\n\n With a desire to serve children both nationally and around the world\, a Moundville couple began a ministry that provides colorful soccer balls and other items to churches or other groups and individuals ministering to children\, whether in the United States or in other countries. \nMike and Betty Morris worked with the Children Evangelism Fellowship for 20 years before they followed a new vision in 2004\, which led to their finding of the Children’s Evangelistic Ministries\, Inc.\, which in the past decade has led to their colorful\, Energia items being spread to more than 125 countries. \nAfter using the “Wordless Book\,” which uses the colors of black\, red\, white\, yellow\, and green to tell the story of Jesus\, Morris said he began to envision using those colors on soccer balls to be given to children. \n“The Lord gave me the idea and it’s expanded into several products\,” Morris said. \nWhat started with about a dozen black and white soccer balls that Morris covered with colored vinyl has expanded into about 35\,000 soccer balls being distributed\, as well as further products such as bracelets\, footballs\, basketballs and key chains\, which can be used in sharing the story of Jesus Christ with children while also providing toys for them. \nWhen their first shipment of 500 soccer balls arrived\, Betty said they and others prayed that 100 people would hear and accept the story of Jesus with every soccer ball they sent out. That prayer has been answered over the years as churches\, organizations and individuals use the Energia products\, named after the Spanish word for power\, around the world. \nMorris said they run their ministry out of their home\, referring to their dining table as their office\, selling the resources or donating them when they are able. He and his wife live on a farm where they own cattle and also remain active in the community\, with Betty serving as the financial secretary to the First Christian Church. \n“That’s enough to keep me as busy as I’d like to be\,” Morris said\, but added he enjoys the work\, although he has not been able to do as much traveling recently due to heart trouble\, which has led to four heart attacks and seven stints. \nBut even in those situations\, Morris said he has been able to make contact with others through their ministry\, such as a medic who was also a pastor and eventually used some of Morris’ Energia products on an international trip. \nThose products have made their way into dentists’ offices and other businesses locally as well as internationally\, being placed into the hands of the mayor of Bethlehem\, Israel\, with young adults involved in soccer tournaments\, and children in Brazil\, India\, Korea\, Russia and numerous other countries. \n“You just never know one day to the next who you’re going to meet\,” Morris said. “It’s just amazing what the Lord’s done. It’s by His grace that we’re able to do what we’ve done.” \nOn a regular basis\, Morris said he receives emails or letters from adults and children who have used the Energia products on international trips or more locally. \n“Meeting new people.. . . is about the greatest joy I have\,” Morris said\, saying he enjoys making contacts around the world and serving children through the products\, which have earned him the nickname “soccer ball man.” \nThose interested in learning more about the ministry or the Energia products can find information at their websites\, www.childrensevangelisticministries.org or www.energiaproducts.org. \n© Copyright 2015\, Nevada Daily Mail\nStory URL: http://www.nevadadailymail.com/story/2222052.html \n\nWorld Cup 2026 Project\n\nDear Co-Laborers in Christ\,\n\n            We trust all is well with you and the ministry the Lord has given you. We are sending a special gift bag of a few of our witnessing items for use in the upcoming World Cup 2026. Our prayer is these gifts will bless many in the furtherance of the Gospel. \n                                                                                                                        Sincerely in Christ\,                                                                                                      Mike & Betty Morris\nØ  OUR MISSION: Reaching out to the lost in North America with the Gospel. \nØ  OUR VISION: To provide Energia witnessing materials for World Cup Outreach. \nØ  JOHN 6:9: (There is a lad here\, which hath (a few soccer balls?)five barley loaves\, and two fishes: BUT WHAT ARE THEY(a few soccer balls?)

(Atlanta\, Boston\, Dallas\, Houston\, Kansas City\, Los Angeles\, Miami\, New York/New Jersey\, Philadelphia\, San Francisco\, & Seattle); three cities in Mexico (Guadalajara\, Mexico City\, & Monterrey); and two cities in Canada (Toronto and Vancouver). \nØ This Project is Bigger than Any One Man or Ministry! \nPlease pray for the Lord’s will\, direction\, and provision for this project. \n Mike Morris can be reached at cemi.mike@gmail.com \n****************************************** \nIf have any questions\, you can reach me at eagle.eye.ent@sbcglobal.net or 816-215-5826. \nHave a Kingdom Day Living Life with no Regrets\, \nLarry \nMM Communicator
