National & International Ministry<\/mark><\/em><\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
After Suspending Counseling for Several Weeks for Medical Reasons, We have Resumed with 56 Sessions since Sept. 1st. in 9 States & Germany<\/em><\/h5>\n<\/div><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
As we begin our 27th Year of Ministry Under the Direction of the Lord Jesus, Let\u2019s look back at His Ministry.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n
The Center was Incorporated in South Dakota on August 12, 1997 as a non-profit Ministry. Since that time the Lord has opened doors for ministry work in 31 states and 16 countries on 6 continents with training material translated in 3 languages. Counselees have flown in to the Center from as far away as New York, California, West Africa, and N. Vietnam. Seminars on Spiritual Warfare have been conducted in 7 states and 3 foreign countries. Training was also conducted during Wednesday evening service at a church in Australia. In 2009 I presented at the Christian Medical & Dental Association National Convention at Ridgecrest Conference Center, Ridgecrest, N.C. on the subject \u201cDealing with the Demonic in a Clinical Healthcare Setting.\u201d This being an outcome of their doctors and dentists I led on mission trips to Haiti and the demonic situations and miracles they personally witnessed. Also, I’ve been called as an expert witness in three court cases, with one criminal case involving the demonic and attempted murder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prayer and Financial Partners You are so Appreciated. Thank you!<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

\n
What has made all this possible? The faithful prayer partners and financial supporters who have been a vital part of this ministry through the years. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
Jesus has led you<\/em><\/strong> and you have faithfully followed His direction. Thank you once again for all you have done through the years and continue to do as the Lord leads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Extending An Invitation!<\/h5>\n\n\n\n
The Lord tells us in Ephesians 6:10 and following that \u201cour struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.\u201d Furthermore, in John 14:12 our Savior Jesus states that \u201cTruly, truly I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go to the Father.\u201d This includes all of us as believers in Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Among past training events, I have taught on spiritual warfare and our authority in Jesus Christ during Wednesday evening service at a church in Australia via video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I would like to extend to your Church or study group an offer to teach on our enemy and how to deal with evil as born-again believers and be victorious through our relationship with Jesus Christ our Savior. This can be accomplished on your schedule via video. If your church or group has a screen and a computer, it can be easily accomplished also with the ability for Q & A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The charge? In order to offer this to large and small Churches and Church groups we only ask for a love offering, if that is possible. Our intent is to educate and strengthen the local Church and believers. Money is not the factor as to whether we are willing. If interested call the Center and discuss how we might help your ministry with a training event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Greetings from Roger and Diane<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

I am happy to say that after a Summer and Fall of dealing with health issues I am feeling well and moving forward in ministry. The medication for the lung disease and Rheumatoid arthritis appears to be having the desired effect and the foot injury under the right foot, after about 3 and 1\/2 months of healing and restrictions in walking and not driving a car has just about completely healed now. I must say when the doctor gave me clearance to be able to drive again that first drive was an experience.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
Diane has been a trooper through all of this and has seen to my every need. What a blessing she has been, and I couldn\u2019t want a better wife and \u201cnurse.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now as life finally moves forward again, we are planning on finally making it out to Alabama next weekend to see Jackson play football and Kye play in the marching band. The drive is not long, maybe an hour and a half so I believe I can sit that long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then in the next several weeks Amy and the family will be visiting us from Ohio and we are so looking forward to their arrival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thanks for all your prayers and financial support as we went through this personal battle with health this past several months. It is now time to move forward in ministry. As long as I have strength and breath, I want to continue serving Jesus. Someday I just want to hear Him say \u201cwell done good and faithful servant.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prayer and financial partners just please continue to partner as our blessed Lord Jesus directs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
