1 Lost Sheep Ministry News - The Rest of July EXTRA The Great Commission: Matthew 28: is a commission for all Christians to go, make Disciples, and teach them to OBEY all that I have commanded you. LSM is dedicated to evangelizing the lost and making disciples of Christ that make Disciples of Christ according to II Timothy 2:2. Notes from Brother Bob: Most of our LSM Newsletters report the results of our International trips. Pastor Bob fills in any time available to him with ministries in jails, prisons, rehabilitation centers, churches, and any other opportunities available to him to share the Gospel of Jesus throughout the USA. Consider inviting Pastor Bob to your community to evangelize, disciple, and equip your people for Kingdom work. To provide our readers with how he used his time after returning from his third trip to the Philippines, we are forwarding the following report: Saturday July 26, 2014 On Saturday night I went with Zeke Young and the Texas City Revelators to the prison unit located in Cleveland, TX. This is a small unit with about 500 men there. We had about 200 attend the concert put on by the band and they really enjoyed it. I have had many great experiences over the years ministering with these men. They are talented beyond description. We have made many trips to prisons, drug rehab centers, at Stand Down Homes, and various churches. They integrate their testimonies in a powerful way. And old Zeke Young has truly been called by God to minister in the prisons. The Holy Spirit uses Zeke to effectively communicate with prisoners. Page 1 of 5

On Friday night I went with Zeke and Jawbones band to the Plane State Jail, a women s prison. We had 481 attend a concert and message from God s word.

2 His Z-Team radio program is aired weekly and reaches into many prisons. Zeke is a celebrity in the Texas Department of Corrections prisons. We saw seven men come forward to receive Christ into their hearts. On Monday night I went to the Galveston (TX) County Jail and four were saved there. On Friday night I went with Zeke and Jawbones band to the Plane State Jail, a women s prison. We had 481 attend a concert and message from God s word. The band was awesome and the songs that Zeke and others have written really touched their hearts. Zeke wrote one song about trading the whites for dresses. The ladies wear white tops and white pants in the prison. He had them laughing and crying. The lady chaplain was very happy with how everything went. When I shared the gospel and the importance of accepting God s forgiveness and being born again more than seventy responded and stood to pray. 10 AM Monday July 28, 2014 I had an awesome day yesterday at Living Stream Vietnamese Church in Atlanta, GA. We began the meeting at 10 AM with praise and worship. Then I had two hours to begin sharing God s Renown lesson. We took a break and then returned at 5 PM for four more hours of training. I love their response as God is speaking to their hearts about taking the Renown of God to the world. God is truly expanding my borders. This church has a wonderful mixture adults, and children.

12:45 PM Tuesday July 29, 2014 I m on my flight home to Houston. Yesterday was a day of serving. We started out at 10 AM with Pastor Kimmy and I going to Emory Hospital to visit a lady who has cancer.

3 I was told that one lady whose name is Chi and her children (teens) drove here from Orlando, FL to be a part of this seminar. I learned from her that her parents go to church here and told her about the seminar and invited her to come. Folks that s how you get people to visit church ASK them! 12:45 PM Tuesday July 29, 2014 I m on my flight home to Houston. Yesterday was a day of serving. We started out at 10 AM with Pastor Kimmy and I going to Emory Hospital to visit a lady who has cancer. She has been in the hospital for four weeks and has about another four weeks to go receiving chemo. We prayed for her and we sat her up and rubbed her neck and back for her. I knelt and prayed. I really felt humbled to have the privilege to be there. We then travelled to Thai s father s business which is a dry cleaning store. Thai s father is a former South Vietnamese soldier who was a tank commander during the war. After the war he was imprisoned for seven years for re-education. I then checked out of the hotel and travelled to the home of Tim & Mai Mai. Tim is an 52 year old American and former navy man and deep sea diver. He now owns his own remodeling business. He married Mai Mai four years ago. They are very strong in their faith. We went to church at 7:30 to eat and then started our meeting at 8 PM. I completed the last four lessons from the God s Renown seminar. Commission Celebration Consumed Consecrated. I then washed the feet of the leadership team and they washed my feet. We then had a time for prayer and commitment. The altar was full with people committing their lives to obedience. Page 3 of 5

4 I then, under the direction of the Holy Spirit, shared the gospel for any who have never been born again. I said I believe the Holy Spirit has told me that there are some here who have never been born again And then an old man came forward for salvation. He is 52 years old and just came to the U.S. ten days ago to visit his sister. He is from a Buddhist background. The Holy Spirit kept bringing my attention to a young American boy there who was dating one of the Vietnamese girls. I looked at him and said as I pointed my finger at him, Young man the Holy Spirit has told me you have not been born again, you do not have a spiritual birthday, the Bible says today is the day of Salvation, God wants to save you from hell tonight, will you accept His gift of Salvation? He quickly came to the altar and knelt down with his girlfriend standing behind him and gave his heart to Jesus Christ. His name is Blake Turner, he is 18 years old please keep him and the old man Tho in your prayers. We completed the evening singing How Great thou Art! Folks, I am truly humbled to experience all that the Holy Spirit has used me to do for God s glory. I have had an awesome month of July serving an awesome God! Please keep Carol (my wife) and me in your prayers as we travel to Michigan for time with our family and friends there If you want to be HOLY, saturate yourself with the Word of God. I am a saint, servant, soldier, and ambassador for Jesus Christ. For me to live is Christ and to die is gain. Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
