2 Page 2 of 6 We had a different space this year at the Southern Women's Show in Nashville, Tennessee. We were placed right in front of the exhibitors entrance. Every morning the EXHIBITORS were forced to walk past our booth, including several Jewish ones! A couple stopped by and were dumbfounded by our Israeli flag. They were from JERUSALEM and couldn't believe we had an Israeli flag in our booth. I explained the Gospel to them, and they accepted a Hebrew Gospel Tract! An Israeli Exhibitor purchased one of our Star of David Pendants as a present for his wife. I met her later, and she just loved the gift he gave her! I explained about the gift God wanted to give them, and they accepted some of the Israeli Gospel tracts! I interacted with them and their Israeli co-workers throughout the weekend. Last year, I had witnessed to one of the Jewish Exhibitors. This year, her booth was right across from ours, and she and her FRIENDS kept giving us dirty looks the entire weekend? An elderly man came by and told us he was Jewish even though his mother was Italian. He asked me if I knew how Jewish he was? I said, you are 93% Jewish. He couldn't believe it and asked how I could possibly know? I told him his wife just told me! It turns out he was a believer as well. A Jewish BELIEVER came by with her unbelieving Jewish BROTHER. She was happy to see us. I gave her brother a Gospel tract, but he put back on the table. He had lived in ISRAEL and was able to talk with Eddie about living in Israel! Eddie wore his Viet Nam cap and many people thanked him for his service! Eddie met an Ethiopian MAN who has a Jewish WIFE, and Eddie took his contact in order to send her a Bible!

3 Page 3 of 6 LCJE North America This year, the Lausanne Consultation on Jewish Evangelism North America met in Atlanta. LEADERS from various Jewish ministries meet to discuss ideas and fellowship. A couple of my friends came to the house and purchased some of our ministry items for their ministries. One of the Messianic Rabbis purchased several of our "Yeshua Loves You" Star of David t-shirts for his CONGREGATION! Blasts from the Past While Eddie was in Atlanta, we attended the local chapter of his networking group. Not only was it led by a Female RABBI, but she had lived in Arad, Israel many years ago! I was wearing my Hebrew "Yeshua Loves You" t-shirt, and she smiled and said she knew what it said! As we walked into the building, I ran into a Jewish MAN I had witnessed to some 15 years ago! Many years ago I took Hebrew at a local Synagogue. It was a five week CLASS that lasted for two years! A South African women in the class became agitated anytime I made reference to Jesus or anything Christian? While ministering in Cape Town, South Africa I ran into the womam from Atlanta and she was mad I was in South Africa. Then I ran into her at the Atlanta Whole Foods, and she knocked over a display trying to get away! While training a team for ISRAEL, we ran into her at an Israeli owned yogurt store. Last month we were in Costco showing off my t-shirt, and ran into her again! Please pray for her and her family's salvation.

4 Page 4 of 6 "Again I ask: Did they stumble so as to fall beyond recovery? Not at all! Rather, because of their transgression, salvation has come to the Gentiles to make Israel envious. But if their transgression means riches for the world, and their loss means riches for the Gentiles, how much greater riches will their fullness bring!"-romans 11: Southern Women's Show Nashville, Tennessee

Pray for fruitful conversation and fellowship! Eddie has been witnessing with his Yeshua loves you T-shirt at various meetings for addicts and veterans. It is quite a ministry! He has been amazed at how many young people claim to be agnostic or atheist. The USA is turning into a pagan nation. He has a heart for veterans since 20 of them are committing suicide every day! His latest witnessing arena is in the nearby Mall, which has invited people to walk inside in the morning. He does his walking wearing the T-shirt and, of course, that leads to conversations. The Lord has solved our transportation problem; we have leased a new Chevy Equinox for less than a monthly payment for a used car. It has a bumper-to-bumper warranty, so it should be reliable; we thank the Lord for it!

Thanks for praying as we get used to the different US Culture. Praise Yeshua with us as He conquers every obstacle one by one! We trust Him to guide our steps. God bless you!"
