Special Forces Updates

Grand Junction is a beautiful area with the Grand Mesa, the Book Cliffs and the Colorado National Monument all on different sides of the city. Pear Park Baptist Church is a great church in that needy valley.  Pastor Randy David and I went to college together.  It was great to see how the Lord has used his ministry there these … Read More

In the spring of this year, my wife and I had the privilege of conducting a meeting at Green River Bible Baptist Church. Each service the auditorium was filled.  It was a wonderful meeting of souls saved and God’s people responsive to God’s Word.  This fall we had the privilege to return and conduct the War of Special Forces.  We … Read More

In the mid-1980s the Minutemen Evangelistic Team came to Community Bible Church in Norfolk, NE for the first time.

The pastor when we first came, George Heusinger, is now … Read More

There were … Read More

Four years ago our team came to Cornerstone Baptist Church and Christian School to conduct the War of Special Forces.  I remember that the evening rallies had a good number of area teens attend.  This year was no exception.  Again, a good number of teens from the community came each night.  But that was not the only blessing.  We also … Read More

When I was an upper elementary student, there was a move of God among our youth group at my home church, the Marquette Manor Baptist Church in Downers Grove, IL.  Many in that youth group had a fervent heart for souls and love for the Lord’s work.  Watching this revival challenged me that this is the way a youth group … Read More

Normally we do not have the opportunity to come back a year later, but it worked out for the team to return this fall. Last year was a couple of weeks later in the fall and my daughters spent … Read More
