Sorry for the delay since our last post but we have been ministering at the speed of God. Just in the last month we preached 24 times in six states and literally witnessed hundreds of decisions for Christ. “TO GOD BE THE GLORY – GREAT THINGS HE HATH DONE!”

On Saturday, July 9, 2011 I had the privilege to reunite with my good friend, Nikita Koloff – 5x World Wrestling Champ and now evangelist. We grabbed dinner in Concord, NC and spent the night at his place and then I preached Sunday, July 10 at Independence Square Baptist Church in Kannapolis, NC at the 11 AM service. We had 14 professions of faith and over 40 came to the altar re-committing their life to Christ. GO GOD! From there, I drove 2.5 hrs and preached that night to 165 students at camp. Counting that evening – Friday, July 10-15, I had the privilege to preach 12 times in five days at South Mountain Baptist Camp in Connelly Springs, NC and we had a time. GOD SHOWED UP! On opening night, 54 students came forward making decisions to follow Christ more closely and for the next three nights no less than 100 came forward each night. It never gets old to see God work! Brother Al is doing an amazing job at the camp and it was my privilege to meet and minister with my new friends www.TimJohnsonBand.com They are anointed and church leader they would be a great addition to your church/outreach for an evening of worship. They hail from GA and don’t delay – BOOK them today!!

One of the chaperones in attendance at the camp I preached last week is married to the lead mechanic of Nascar’s JOE GIBBS RACING TEAM in Charlotte, NC. She asked if I would be interested in being a guest chaplain in the future to encourage and minister to their organization. Yes, “JESUS TAKE THE WHEEL” would be a great sermon LOL and it would be a JOY to share Jesus with those world-class individuals. Hope to share an update on that soon. Gentlemen, START YOUR ENGINES!

It was my honor to return on Sunday, July 17 to preach both AM services at Cresthill Baptist in Bowie, MD for my dear friend, Dr Jimmy Painter. Cresthill is the church that ordained me into the Gospel ministry and Dr Painter is one of my heroes. At the 11AM service we had 44 people come to the altar making various recommitments to Jesus. It is ALL God! Please pray for my family and I am scheduled to be a guest again this Friday, July 22 on FOX NEWS LIVE from their Capitol Hill studios via remote to New York with host Lauren Green on “SPIRITED DEBATE.” It will air at 2:45 PM EST this Fri and then I catch a plane on Saturday to Pittsburgh, PA to preach three services on Sunday, July 24 at Hilltop Baptist Church in West Indiana, Pennsylvania. Thankful for my buddy Evangelist Jamey Ragle for the referral and its been a treat to get to know Pastor Joe Lee. He was at FBC Jacksonville, FL with Dr Jerry Vines before taking this wonderful church in PA. We are praying that souls are saved and saints stirred to serve the Savior.

While in Jamaica last month with www.CruisewithaCause.org Ruth & I ran into Diana Hagee, wife of Pastor John Hagee of the 19,000 member Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, TX. We shared with her and Pastor Hagee that we attended the CHRISTIANS UNITED FOR ISRAEL banquet that they host annually at the Washington D.C. Convention Center in July 2010 and we met her briefly after the event. I shared that Ruth runs three Christian-Spanish radio stations in DC, PA, VA and noted we are “small fish” in ministry but if we could ever help promote their ministry (specifically with their passion for Israel) to call on us. What impressed me most about the Hagees’ (including Pastor Matthew) was their humility. Their ministry is not only national but world-wide and yet they concentrate on individuals. Two days later Mrs Hagee was walking on the ship and I stopped her just to say “hi” and I was going to reintroduce my wife to her (we first met her the year before in DC) and now two other times on the ship and she said “I know you – you are Frank and your wife is Ruth! Your wife runs three radio stations in Philadelphia, Richmond and DC!” I was floored. Not only did she remember our names but recalled that I worked in Washington and quoted verbatim what I shared about my wife. Ironically, we are not even members of their mega church in TX and yet made us feel special. Yes, “The Greats are Gracious.”

She proceeded to take out her cell phone and asked for our information and said on Monday of next week a member of my staff will be calling you. I thought this is interesting, the First Lady of one of America’s largest church is interested in us. True to her word on Monday, I got a call from her team and next thing I know we have been invited by them to be Assistant State Director for Maryland in promoting CUFI Bishop Harry Jackson is the director for Maryland.

Ironically, just a week before our trip to Jamaica I was invited back as a guest on http://live.FOXNEWS.com in NYC on a panel talking about President Obama’s statement the day before about considering Israel to shrink their borders to the 1967 regulations. I shared on LIVE television that Israel needs more protection not less. The Bible is clear that God will “bless those who bless Israel and curse those who curse Israel.” It was my honor to visit the Holy Land in 1995, and the highlight of my trip was entering and exiting the tomb of Jesus. It is the only tourist attraction in the whole wide world where folks come from miles around and stand in line to stare at absolutely NOTHING! As you exit the tomb is a Scripture verse (“Why do ye seek the living among the dead? He is not here but He has risen!) – Luke 24:5-6. Friends, we don’t serve a dead god but The Living Lord! It was a JOY to retrace the steps of my Savior, get baptized in the Jordan, visit the wailing wall, visit the Garden of Gethsemane and countless other Bibilical sites.

God truly is the “Author and Finisher of our Faith.” Seven weeks ago I was in NY talking about Israel and our need to pray, promote and protect God’s chosen people. A week later we are sailing in Jamaica and reunite with Mrs Hagee and last night, July 19, 2011 Ruth and I in a capacity crowd of nearly 6,000 were seated all the way up front at A Night to Honor Israel. It was all God and the graciousness of the Hagees’. It was a privilege to be part of the three day summit. Speakers included Senator Joe Lieberman, Gary Bauer – former GOP Presidential candidate, Glenn Beck, Pastor John Hagee and many others. My hero of the faith, Dr David Ring was there and it was a JOY to reunite with two of our dear friends, Aaron & Amanda Crabb – worship leaders for Cornerstone Church in TX and they brought the house down!

Persecution has always started with the Jews first and then Christians. If America ever turns her back on Israel then God will most certainly turn His back on us. In the near future, Ruth & I hope to coordinate with pastors, leaders and concerned citizens all over Maryland to promote the sovereignty, security and safety of these precious people. After all, it is where our Savior (JESUS) was born. If you would like to assist us in this effort and/or help host an outreach at your church please contact us asap. Jesus is King of the Jews and God’s heart smiles when we honor those whom He honors.
