Dear Family,
I love you all very much. Soon I will be on the road preforming Encounter down and up the East Coast.

Thank you for your prayers they are keeping the team and I sane.

Love you.

Dear Family,

God is very Kind to receive and provide for a sinner like me. This encourages me to write He will do the same for you anytime too.

Stories of His faithfulness.

I am on a new fast, where I will not spend money on anything. No food, transportation, art, nothing! With this I have seen Gods hand provide in sincere ways.

I am all out of food and I got to do a show at a church. We finish the show and to my amazement after church they have a lot of food donated to them from supermarkets which provided my food for the next few weeks.

A friend and I decided to go to Bostons Museum of Fine Arts while we were going five dollars rolled right before our path. We picked it up praising God for his provision in the ride to the Museum. We get off the bus and begin to walk and we both ask/say "how will God provide this time?". A man who is homeless is sitting begging for money and I had a sense that God told me to ask him for some change and He will pay him back 10 fold. I did it and the man said "sure, here take more money!" so he gave us 5 quarters. He was a generous man.

Yeah, God is very kind and there is more that he has done.

I love you all and you inspire me and I hope and am sure these will encourage you, give you hope, faith, and love for God and man.

OK please be praying for this team as we are soon leaving on tour.

THank you for reading.

Dear Family,

I have a half day today so I am excited to say I am going to Boston Museum of Fine Arts!
YA! I will hopefully write more about it later.
Ok I Love you all.

Dear Family,

I wish not to sell this but I must.

This art work is based on the Gospel of Matthew. Within Matthew there is a lot about living in Mercy towards others in your life, caring for them as a human being. Then there are parts when men are taken back by the humanity of Jesus and the glory of God that is being released from him. I was meditating on this how Jesus must look like all common men but underneath it all he is divinity. Which is where these rocks come from in this art piece on the out side they are stones but on the inside is life and you can find it if you dig.

Songs that helped the inspiration
Underoath -Desolate Earth... The End Is Here
Jon Foreman -Your Love is Strong (specific line "The kingdom of the heavens, is buried treasure")

I am starting the art piece at 100$
Its big and has a lot of acrylic paint on it.

Dear Family.

I am going out today to perform Encounter. It should go well.

I am going to write about a friend of mine, Heidy.

Heidy is a co-worker at YWAM, she works hard and has a heart to reach people who are at the end of themselves. Presently she is having some financial difficulties so I am asking if you could help her with some finances. She needs some income by Monday, please get in contact with me before or just donate at ywamboston.org.

Thank you for reading.

News Letter because I went green for a moment.

Dear Family
At this moment I am going green and not using paper for a news letter. Please for give me for the inconvenience if it is for you.

Update: Things are the same at them moment with YWAM. We are getting ready for our tour down the east coast. Please pray for our unity, impact lives with the Love of God, and protection.

I would like not to write about YWAM at this moment but about my life before and the things that influenced me to be who I am today.I would like you to know me better and not just support me. SO HERE WE GO, memory lane!

My Fathers Influence:
Through the years I was growing up, some nights out of the month my Dad would sit beside my brothers and I at night massaging the temples on our heads and praying for each of us individually. Asking God to protect us, keep us on a good path and all that jazz.

I think his prayers have been and are still being answered in my life. In my present life these memories help me, while I am in bed beginning to fall asleep I think of these moments to silence my thoughts. At moments I even massage my brothers and pray for them here in Boston (may sound strange but its not).

I know that my prayers have been influenced by my Dads prayers and seeking the presence of God.

Mamas' Mercy:
One day I stole 20$ from my Grandma. My Grandma realize 20 dollars were missing, she then asked my Mom about it, my Mom then asked my brothers and I about it, she quickly picked up on it being me who stole the 20$. She slapped me, gave the 20$ back to Grandmother and that Sunday morning we went to breakfast. Oh I was embarrassed and feeling sorry for myself at that breakfast table.

My brothers noticed a blanket sell across the street and we went to check it out. Mama told the three of us we each could get a blanket for ourselves. I refused mine, she asked why? I told her I don't deserve it after stealing, she then told me "Jordan don't be silly, get a blanket, I love you". I almost cried because I wanted the blanket, also because of my mothers mercy.

Presently I feel like I can have a lot of mercy on others because of many many moments like this in my life. Its good, very Christ like.

Okay, I am done telling stories for now.

Thank you for reading and supporting me. Above all thank you for being my friends and family! I love you all.

(Sorry for the grammar, I am not very good at it)

Dear Family,

For the first time in awhile I ran. The snow is gone, the sky is clean and the cold still sits beside us in MA but I still ran. It was liberating.

That is all. Thanks for reading.
:)

Dear Family
Soon I will be on the road with my friends to preform "Encounter". I am hoping and praying people Encounter God in such a tangible way that their lives lead a way that can only be summed by following God.

I am gate full to be going on this tour and seeing what God will do.
Please be praying for the people we will meet and talk to.
Pray this production be no ordinary show.
Pray that our lives be messed up too by going after Gods heart. (We are sinners too and still need repentance)

I want to see a change in my heart and in the hearts around me. Prejudice, malice, hurt, be exchanged for understanding, peace, healing in all of the soul.

Yup, I am sick of our societies way and still trying to learn of ways to turn against it.

There are more things I would write but I am still struggling through these thoughts and ways to live that are truly ways of Christ.

I am not looking for perfection but love. Love for my enemies, my friends, my God, then for myself.

Gooood day mates!
