Patrick's Spring 2024 Newsletter
While it is true that hope does not melt away in the summer, or rendered fallow in autumn, nor does it perish in the deep freeze of winter, “SPRING IS WHEN GOD USHERS REVIVAL TO THE EARTH AND TO OUR SOULS”
Dear family, friends, and supporters, by now you
have been informed by TEAM that both Marj and I are officially retired. We had a winter full of ministry opportunities to share in various senior holiday events with music and bible study. We also continued with ministry in the prisons. Mentoring remains a priority. Several of Marj’s mentees have now been released from prison and she remains in touch with them. Her mission mentees are going strong in their placements around the world…Japan, Africa, and Thailand.
The impact of retirement from TEAM does mean several individuals have dropped monthly support and some have remained, however monies are remitted to us only in quarterly submissions. Finances are quite a challenge with our only other monthly income being social security benefits totaling less than $2,000. We exist by the grace of God coping with expense requirements for running the Anointed House of Rescue.
We are eternally grateful for the mission project manager; Pastor Vidyl Marion, his wife, and the saints of God at House of Truth ministries, along with Dr Douglas Zeba and Mr. Kevin Maistry of KZN Social Services for all their assistance with the Anointed House of Rescue.

We were so blessed to have our South African Pastor John van Niekerk and his wife along with a houseful of South African visitors, together with members of the TOP global mission team who graced our house with their presence. We had great memories of times together in ministry in South Africa along with food, fellowship, and ministry to one another..
