Greetings,
The Fall quarter has concluded with the issuing of 173 certificates among the 6 Discipleship classes and 2 Fatherhood classes.
The Winder quarter begins December 14th at Dixon with Discipleship: The Holiness of God and Christian Living: Renewing Fatherhood and December 16th at Sheridan with 2 classes of Discipleship: The Holiness of God and Christian Living: Malachi Dads.
I'm truly looking forward to the teaching of the new fatherhood curriculum Malachi Dads. I ask for your prayers in my preparing for my teaching and the hearts and minds of the students to receive God's truth.
Until December 17th I'll continue with weekly prayers for SOCPM Alumni and when I receive them prayer request from SOCPM ministry partners.
To Him be the glory

Rod - Praise my wife's financial support is growing it's at about 60%. Pray her ministry is fully funded by the new year. She has made a lot of effort of late. Pray the Lord provides in a great way. Praise God my wife seems to do a little better. She came and visited me with a couple of my boys recently. Pray she will keep healing and will have far more reserves to reach out to me in a greater capacity. Pray for all the state changes in truth and sentencing laws coming soon. !00% reduced to 85%, 85% reduced to 70%. Pray God will direct my sons and daughters to college/jobs that will draw out their best gifts/passions for God's glory. Daymen 17, wants to start college soon. Bryan 17, Junior in high school. Jayson 14, freshman in high school, and Ellie 16, sophomore in high school. Pray God helps them to pray 'God show me what you want to do?'
Bruce - Thank you Lord Jesus Christ for another gifted day for all of us to do your will. Amen, May Scott's journey to and from this place always be safe and keep his wife Michelle healthy and his son also. I pray that the parole board grant me whole monitoring, I received a letter yesterday advising me to forward it to its proper place, may their hearts be softened and open minded in releasing me for home monitoring. Amen.
