Special Forces Updates

Over the years we have had some wonderful weeks here at Beth Haven Baptist Church. We thank God for Pastor Crowell and the people of BHBC. They love the Lord and love souls. It is always a blessing to labor with these folks. This year the week somehow seemed the best one yet! The week was amazing! First, there were … Read More

I always love being with Pastor John Allen in South Haven, IN. We have had the opportunity to be there several times over the years. They have built a wonderful new auditorium and we appreciated the spirit of God’s people there. On Sunday afternoon a young man was riding a bike. One of the co-captains on our team invited him … Read More

In the year 2000 I moved to Wisconsin and began the process of becoming a Wisconsinite. Although I am still a Bears fan (having grown up in Chicago), you find the Green Bay Packers are “huge” up here. This summer I went to Lambeau Field in Green Bay for the first time. A few weeks later I was at Bay … Read More

Several years ago the team was at Victory Baptist Church in Jacksonville, FL.  It was a privilege to return.  I was encouraged with the good spirit in the church.  Their pastor, Marty Massito, just retired and you could tell the Lord used his ministry there.  He was a former Army Ranger in Viet Nam so you know which team he … Read More

A few months ago Pastor Warren Brown contacted me because of a burden he had to reach the young people in his county.  As a result the team came to conduct a three night rally in Floyd County, Virginia.  We held the rallies right after school on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday in the town of Floyd near the high school.  … Read More

In 1996 the War of Special Forces was conducted for the first time for an entire tour.  The team’s second week was in Sumter, SC.  The Lord did a lot things in hearts during that week.  A few years ago I met a former student who was serving the Lord who testified of God’s working in his heart during that … Read More

The Marine … Read More
