Praise the Lord. The revival here went well, there were
few that raise their hands to get saved, just couple of
people came forward for prayer, it was kind of hard
here this year ministering. The people here usually
come forward for prayer, but not this time. It was a
spiritual warfare and at the end we won, when people
start raising their hands for salvation and we did
good for God and thank God for Evangelist Mike Curtis
who was willing to come and minister for three days. We had a good fellowship every night after the church, lots of
food, praise God. I'm going to Gulkana for New Year and my family is still undeciding to go or not, praise God.
Please keep my grandma Ellen Henry in your
prayers, she's 95 years old and I'm going to Fairbanks
with her for doctor check up. She got sick couple of
days ago.We'll be in Fairbanks for 2 days.

**Witness** In 2004 my village almost burn over by a forest fire.I was volunteering with my boat and fishing for king salmon for number of crew who was here. Anyway everyday I would witness to the whole crew or one on one. While I was witnessing to the whole crew, I was teaching about becoming a child of God, this person was kinda of mad and told me that we're all child of God. It kind of caught me of guard, so when that happened, I continue my witness about child of God. You see the devil wants to cut me off.but I know better and I finished my teaching.
So the next day I brought it up again,but I was ready to teach on child of God and child of the devil. (1 John 3:10/In this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest:whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God,nor is he does not love his brother.)
You see, we're not all the children of God, there are
children of the devil out there among us, trying to discredit or twist the word of God.we have to be on guard at all times. Be in the word we can all become the children of God, everyone you see is qualified to become a child of God,because of what Jesus did on the cross.
Verse 13 clearly stated we need to be born of God.To
become a child of God.Praise the Lord God

*************Praise report for 2007******************
God bless you allll and thank you for all your giving
to our ministry, without your giving we'll be having
hard time reaching the lost here in Alaska. Your gift is mostly appreciated by all of us, because were growing in the ministry. 2007 was a great outreach and I don't keep track of who is coming to the Lord,but in 2007 we reached more villages then before. I know more people got touched by God then ever before,because more people approach me and thanking me for coming to their village or their
church. Everywhere I went I build good fellowship, so
far we reached 76 villages since 1993. And we continue
to grow. This year we built an Internet church, bought a new boat for Yukon River Crusade and also bought a used van for road ministry and also upgraded my little studio here in Venetie. We're still on KJNP radio station every Saturday 9:45pm and started this Internet teaching once a week. And also bless by the church here in venetie for
having revival there.
We did a revival at AFN, Fur Rondy, North American dog
race, Yukon River, and Kenai area and numbers of
villages I don't recall at this time. This is the year I won't forget because my teacher and spiritual father David Salmon went on to be with the Lord. I did speak at his memorial service in Fairbanks and Tanana Chiefs  broadcast it over the Internet, so maybe I preached to the whole world.it was a busy year,but this year it's starting all ready, I'm looking forward to Gulkana new year revival,what away to start a new year with God Hallelujah.
So consider to give more this year,and tell someone
about our ministry, what it's doing and tell them to
come and join us or to support us,tell them to check
out our website. We need to step up on what we're doing
or to say next level with God. So pray and seek God about your support to our ministry because this year,we want to do more then we did last year and reach more lost souls for the kingdom of God.and we will with your generous gift to Sacred Ground Ministries. Merry Christmas and happy new year. Season greetings to you alll from Sacred Ground
Ministries Inc.

I'll be in Fairbanks Thursday and hope to see you there. Praise God My son Gabe and I set out few traps and snares we'll be checking it on Wednesday. Hope to get some fur this year.

Praise the Lord I'm back home and already getting
ready for Native Rally, December 8, hope to see you there.
Praise the Lord I had a good trip and my friend Ricky
Frank did real good and people like him. He's bass
player he's from Venetie we grew up together. We went
to Fairbanks, Tetlin and then Anchorage. I already
report on Fairbanks and tetlin.

 Anchorage and Nikiski:
Anchorage Native Crusade 15-17 and glory to God it was
awesome service very evangelistic revival and Brother
Roger Holmberg did a good job preaching on salvation
every night, there was response every night, people
walking down to the cross to get saved and delivered and
be make free. Every night after the service there was a time of greeting one another and fellowship at people home for a good meal of native food. It was a good to see my
brother and sister in the Lord and to caught up what's
happening with them and also their ministry.  Praise the Lord for Nikiski new hope Christan Fellowship Church. I called down there last minute and ask if I could preach and the pastor said yes right away and we went down there for Sunday 5 clock service. Oh man what a service from the beginning I did have a spiritual experience for the beginning can explain it, but it seem like I was ready to move on from where I was to something  more powerful, even today I can't get my finger on it.just like I grew up and finally got there after 14 years of trying. Praise God thank you Jesus. I taught on "no more broken treaties" the new covenant with God and each other and Nikiski church has made a treaty with me, that we'll work together and support one another and praise God for their pastors Henry and Nancy, keep them in your prayer,they are awesome pastors who need our prayer and  support,working in the front line sometime is hard. I did a altar call to prayer together for villages across the Alaska and also teaming together to reach Alaska villages for Jesus and just a hand full of people didn't come forward, but the altar was full awesome at the altar. now I'm encourage to go and preach the Gospel.with new teaching and preaching praise the Lord.I don't have to wait for new year for new beginning.it's a new beginning all year long for me.Praise the Lord God bless you all and keep the faith and be power full in the Lord.

Oct.10,07 prophesy from Pastor/evangelist Gary
Simple. In the Last days before Jesus come, this will happen in the God churches.


1.) they'll talk about the power of God more then they
do fruit of the Spirit.
2.) they'll  worship more they do praying
3.) they'll preach about life more then death

********************************************************

Praise the Lord I finally got home on Oct. 31, traveling
since the 4th of Oct. Came home one night on the 11th
of October and thats the day our beloved and elder brother
David Salmon went to be with the Lord.

Oct.4 my wife Margo and I went to Fairbanks for Episcopal Convention. Please keep Episcopal Convention in your prayers as they are searching for a new bishop. Bishop Mark moved to Canada this summer so please pray for Spirit filled bishop for Alaska.

On October 5 Brother David came to the convention and
talked to the Yukon Flats people about the history of their church and other things I don't remember, but I have the film. After that he wanted to take us out for dinner and
almost all his family were there at the dinner when
suddenly he fainted. We called 911 and took him to
the hospital. They started testing him Friday through Sunday and on Monday they found he had cancer spread
all over. Monday night all the family got together and told him he had cancer and at first I don't what his reaction
is going to be, but I do know one thing this sickness won't
have victory over him, because I know brother David. I spent lots of time with him. He taught me what it means to preach the Gospel and also what God is doing right now and what He is about to do. When they told him he had cancer, he said "good" the doctor told him could take treatment, but he said 'I want to go home and sit in my
chair!
' After that he kept talking about his chair, how
he want to sit in his chair at home, that's where he sat
as he went to be with his Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ on Oct.11th.

David's funeral was October 15. Evangelist Mike Curtis did the sermon and there was a time when almost everybody at the funeral was on their knees, repenting and getting right with God. I do have the video film and it will available hopefully by this spring.

On Oct. 17, TCC had a celebration of David's life and they asked me to preach and I did. 1 Tim.5:17 Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and doctrine. There was a time of laughing and also time of tears and time of serious preaching about what it means to be an elder and what it take to become elders. It was broadcast over the internet with TCC webcast. I was so honored to preach the Gospel at my teacher, mentor, preacher, pastor David Salmon. I will have the CD available as soon as I get it from TCC. I have more to say about brother David, but he would say I'm just a servant of God who work only 30 minutes for God. He wants us to give all the glory to God, not him for what he did for God. But I'll won't forget him for what he said to me when I first got saved, he said to me "go into all the world and preach the Gospel" that's what he said to me.and I did what he told me, you see I honor him in the Spirit at his  funeral, people were talking about what he did and what he accomplished while he was on earth. Just few of us told what he said from the word of God. So brother David had double honor from God for what he did here on earth and also what he said in the Spirit.

God bless you all and thank you for all your prayer and support.
