A request from Jennifer, OJP reply. Please pray with us for her.

Can I please get some pics of Jesus. I am in deep need of spiritual help. I feel as though I am at a breaking point at times and say things I shouldn't and regret later. I do ask for forgiveness and hope God has forgiven me. These pics would make me feel closer to God.

Thank you,
Jennifer H.

OJP reply:

Dear Jennifer, we will send you pictures right away. You are not alone in the things you describe, He understands our weaknesses and will help you in yours. Talk to Him, and He promises to talk to You. You can talk to us in real time if you get Yahoo Messenger. Go to our website and you'll find how to reach us through that way. If not, keep emailing us and we will respond. Have hope, Jesus' love for you is real, and His help is real. Send us your mailing address. We will pray for you.

Father, here is Jennifer, whom You love, reaching out to You. She is pressed by the enemy and has wounds from her experiences in life. Please wrap Your arms around her, show her how close You really are, and that the way ahead leads to a place that has no darkness, no fear, and is her future with You. Push back the enemy from her and give her the help she needs. Your love never fails. Thank You, Father, in Jesus' mighty name.

So glad you wrote to us.

Comments about the picture of Jesus found on a Muslim website

From a blogger site, which posted the picture of Jesus that we mail all over the world:

...in addition, I would to like to add my own feelings. I really loved the picture of Jesus Christ in the post that I used. I found it very inspiring to medidate. I was coming back to my own blog just to stare at the glorious face of Jesus. even though historically all the paintings of Jesus's is not authentic, yet i get a feeling that this painting potrays the real face of Jesus very closely. But God knows the best. I just couldn't take off my eyes from the face. Can you help me with one thing? can you stare at the face and notice if Jesus is smiling back or not? Perhaps i was imagining, but i felt it.

Here is a quote from a prophecy from the Holy Spirit called: Boundless River, given in August, 2002 by Silvana Lupetti, when He first told us to start Operation Jesus Pictures.

I say to you who love Me, 'Not one Muslim, not one Jew, not one atheist, not one Christian, no, not one in all the earth, will look at this picture, taken from the Shroud, and not be moved by My presence'."

As you can see, the prophecy is true.

A request from Canada

Dear friend in Christ Jesus,
I have seen the face of Him who is forever. I had just viewed the picture of Jesus based on the Turin Shroud and I am speechless. Is it possible that I can have one of those pictures that reveals Jesus' face based on the Turin Shroud?

Your Brother in Jesus....

Letter from a soldier in Iraq

Hello. My name is Tom W. I am a MEDEVAC helicopter pilot stationed in Iraq. I found your website and have enjoyed looking at it. I saw the link to request some pictures so that's what I'm doing. I feel that it would be very inspirational for the folks I work with to see various pictures of Jesus while performing the job we have to do. We see and do a lot of positive things here but when it doesn't go so good with the patients we pick up, it can be really trying at times.
Thank you for your offer.
Sincerely,

Pictures of Jesus in Cuba

The step-daughter of the friend that OJP sent many pictures of Jesus to in Cuba, instant messaged us today to tell us thank you for the pictures of Jesus, and that she has one on her bed. Her name is Greter and she is 22 years old. Since she received pictures of Jesus, it has become possible for her come to the U.S. with her dad and little brother. She is asking us to ask Jesus if her boyfriend can also come. She says he is a really good man, and that she needs him to come also, and they will be married in freedom. Father, thank You for opening doors into Cuba, may freedom be the banner over Cuba after so many years of oppression, please bless this young girl and her family and all like her that want to live free. Let the pictures draw all who see them towards Jesus and begin to know Him as He is. Thank You, Father, with all our hearts, in Jesus' love.

Traveled to Nigeria to give out pictures

Praise the Lord, I thank God for the mercy He gave me in the journey to Nigeria. When I reached to the Embassy of Uganda in Nigeria, I got the favor when I told someone that its the Lord who sent me in this Nation. Suprisingly, a man told me if you dont have where to stay, come I have a room in my house, so that room is my Prayer and Mercy from God that will lead where God wants me to be. Am now organising the real address that I will give to you to send me these Jesus Pictures. Pray for me that I may do what God sent me to do in Jesus name. bye-bye i wish you A Happy Christmas and A Happy New Year. - Matthew

Pray for Matthew in Nigeria and God bless the man who offered to take him in for Jesus' sake. Jesus, help Matthew as he reaches out to the people in Your name. Lead him wherever you wish him to go, and give him wisdom always from the Holy Spirit. As soon as we have the address, we will send a box of pictures of Jesus to him, and some tracts in Swahili and English and some dvds of THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST.

Pictures for a woman who is suffering

12-19-06 In a local grocery store, while I was checking out, I was talking to the cashier Kathleen. She has been giving out the pictures of Jesus for a few years now. She gives them to those who come into the store, and also to the local fire and rescue depts. One time she told me that there had been an accident in the area in which children were in the car involved in the accident. When the rescue people arrived the children were crying. They were not hurt, but they were scared. Kathleen said that the rescue team tried everything to comfort the children so they would stop crying. Nothing worked until they gave them pictures of Jesus. She said the children immediately stopped crying and were calm.

Today she told me about a young women named Lisa who has three boys,and who has had serious problems in her family.This year Lisa had a stroke. Kathleen had given some small stringed pictures of Jesus to Lisa so I offered to give her some of the 8x10s for Lisa. I had two 8x10 pictures of Jesus in the car so I brought them in and held one up to show Kathleen. There were two other women near us; one was probably in her late teens. They both leapt forward and immediately exclaimed when they saw Jesus, "Oh that is beautiful, can I have one?" The younger one took one of the 8x10's and the other women said she would wait and get it from Kathleen when we bring more, so that Lisa could have that one. We will be taking many more pictures back to Kathleen. Jesus, please come close to Lisa and help her and heal her. Please help her family, and thank you so much, Jesus, for spreading these anointed pictures all over the world.

Sleeps with picture of Jesus on her chest

12-14-06 Today a woman named Anna Maria called, who had received free pictures of Jesus from us when we gave them out at Thanksgiving at the Sandia Church of the Nazarene. She said that ever since that night she knows that Jesus has been helping her. She said she sleeps with the picture of Jesus on her chest and feels such peace. We said we could send more if she wants and she was so glad, she wants to give them to others. She also said she has never seen the Passion of the Christ so we are sending her the DVD.

Pictures Mailed For Christmas

12-16-06 Today we mailed out three packages. Two of these requests for pictures of Jesus we received by phone and the other by email. They asked if we could send them before Christmas. Justina, from Colorado has called before and gave out all the pictures that we previously sent, and then wanted more to give out at Christmas. Tom from New Mexico saw our local Operation Jesus Pictures T. V. show, and requested pictures to give out at Christmas. The other request came from Connie in North Carolina who wanted to give Jesus' pictures to her family at Christmas. We have many more packages ready to mail and are waiting on the postage to mail them.

An artist speaks of the picture of Jesus

This photo of Jesus, I want to sketch. It is the first photo of Jesus I've seen where the anointing is so great I could only capture the eyes through the working of the Holy Spirit through me. I have never been so moved as I have reading your prophecies. Please send me anything. I minister to people through the flute and am starting to draw Holy pictures with pencil and pastel to give to the people, too.

From Joseph in Ghana"For anyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."

Dear Char, Silvana, Therese, Felicia, Nicole and everyone at OJP. Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. What wonderful news - getting motor scooter and some bicycles! We are rejoicing for you and grateful to God for His plans for us, and for provision of the means of transportation that we are asking Him, and will surely provide according to His love. As our beloved brother, Pastor Jean in Rwanda is doing in Rwanda, whenever we have the motor scooter, I will dedicate it to the Picture distribution evangelism, and for visiting various places with the good news of Christ. There is one passage of Scripture that God continue to speak to my heart always. It is from Romans 10:13-15 which reads, "For anyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." But how can they call on Him to save them unless they believe in Him? And how can they believe in Him if they have never heard about Him? And how can they hear about Him unless someone tells them? We have very many places to go with the gospel in this country! We are asking Jesus to provide this means of transportation soon as we are burn with desire to share His words to the lost souls!

This week, we shopped around for good prices, quality and discount for motor scooter. Depending on the made & model, the prices varies, so the choice will depend on the one that Jesus provides. A good durable motor scooter costs within the range of USD $600 - $800. Two reputable sources here in Ghana are giving special Christmas discount ranging from 4-8% price reduction. I yearn to chat you weekly on yahoo messenger, I know that will be possible when we are blessed with the motor scooter. We now living together and sharing all things in common like the early Church really does empower us to do more for God and to discover a lot of things about one another. We are very glad for the money for the King's feast that you will be sending tomorrow! Once again, thanks so much for all that you are asking the Father on our behalf. May the blessings from the Lord abounds with you all! Your brother,Joseph & the brethren here

Message from the Father

The Father told us today that we should look into getting the pictures of Jesus into women's shelters in our community. He said to tell the leaders of the shelters that the pictures bring comfort to many in dire situations. So they do. We have heard much evidence about that from others. And for those women, cut off from their homes, beaten and tired and despairing about the future...Jesus comes to put His arms around them and tell them: Before you were even born, you were conceived in Me. He will speak to them and they will begin to hear His words of hope, of love and of a future where there is no violence, where children are safe, an unending life with Him. Look and see in your communities if you can bring this gift of comfort to women in shelters, for the sake of Jesus.

Father, let all those who will, bring Your caring love to the battered and bruised women who need You most of all to shelter them. Thank you for loving us so much, even though we fall so short of being like Jesus. Look into our hearts, Father, because there is our love for you, the only thing of value we have.

In Jesus' precious name.

Letter from Joseph in Ghana and reply from OJP.

Dear Char & everyone at OJP, Greetings to you in the great name of Lord Jesus Christ. We received the gift you sent for the remaining rent, and have just got it paid to the landlord. We hope to have electricity installed soon. Thank you all very much for being this blessings to us. We are also planning for outreach meetings this weekend where we expect that many souls will be saved. Please, continue to pray for us and we trust that God will supply all of our needs, fill us with His peace, prosper our work, and anoint us with Love.It is our hope that the package with the children's gift will arrive without much delays, to bless the kids here during the Christmas. May the Lord grant over you all an open heaven of blessing that will pour out from the sovereign heart of our Father who loves us more than we can comprehend. Please write again when you are able! Your brother, Joseph & the brethren here.


Precious brother Joseph,

We are so glad that you will have light now we are all rejoicing with tears in our eyes. We will be sending more money for your Christmas King's Feast and for any other needs you have. We will be sending $200 on the first of December for the feast so check Ikobo it will be there. Look and see what your King's Feast on Christmas will cost, don't go cheaply because He deserves the best and He is thinking of you and your flock to enjoy a very good dinner before Him. Use anything over the cost of the dinner for your other needs, remember that the package we sent you might charge a cost, even though they aren't supposed to do that so save $15 for just in case, I'm asking the Father to help you carry that package home safely, it is somewhat large. He will provide. We would very much love to have any pictures of anything and everything, the beloved flock, your feast, the land, the house, and we would love a picture of you and the flock together. You Joseph, faithful one, you will be getting a motor scooter so you can take the pictures and the Passion around your area as He leads, we need to see about what is for sale in your area. We also want your flock to have at least six bicycles. This is all by faith at this point but we are going with the Father and He is leading. So let me tell you what we have been praying about for you. A lap-top..shoes....clothes...medicines...scooter...bicycles...household items...towels...books for the children...and provision for our pregnant sister there. The scooter will enable you also to meet with us in Yahoo once a week. So there it is, dearest Joseph. We all love you and are so proud of your faithfulness and your courage. Tell the flock that we pray for them earnestly, and we think of all of you always. God Bless you all.

In His love,
Silvana and all at OJP

A letter from Joseph in Ghana and a reply from Char

Dear sister Char & everyone at OJP,Warmest greetings to you in the name of Jesus Christ. It is quite inspiring to read the Conversation between Char and Pastor Jean! We hope that in the future we will be able to join the online yahoo conference as we had did in the past.We are just curious - were you able to send the Christmas package yet? We also pray daily that the Father will deliver the Rebate safely to Silvana, so that she can use part as she planned to help us to pray the remaining rent, which will provide us with electricity. Extend our greetings, love and thanks to your families and to the rest of the brethren there! Your brother,Joseph & the brethren here

Dear Brother Joseph,

We have been checking the mail every day in eager anticipation of the rebate check. We thought that it would come by now because they said it was mailed on October 31st. The very day it comes we will put it in the bank and then send it to you the next day by ikobo. We hope that the landlord will act swiftly after he receives the payment, so you can have electricity soon. Felicia said that the Father told her today that the rebate check will come very soon.

Yesterday Therese and I went shopping for more Christmas gifts for your children. Nikki gave us the money to buy them. Now each child has a few small toys to be sent with the package we are mailing to you. Today I am going to wrap the presents in Christmas paper and put their names on the present, so the children can have the fun of opening them on Christmas Day. We are praying for each of them. We also will include some candy for the Christmas feast for the children and for the adults who like candy. Brother, we believe we are going to be able to send at least $150 for the Christmas feast since Nikki said she will contribute to that as well. We will send that money by ikobo some time in December. What a joy to honor Jesus together on this Birthday Feast Day, the King's Feast - a feast from the King, a feast for the King.

If the children want to swap gifts, then we will not mind if they do that. We tried to buy something that we thought a child that age might like to have. We are sending extra batteries for the presents that take batteries, such as the little remote controlled cars for Koseh and Cyril and the musical toy for Mawupelonu. The shirt that we bought for Mawutoh and Kafui are worn by teenage girls here, so we hope that they like them. They are just a simple tee-shirt with a design on them, such as is commonly worn in America. To Agbalavi we gave a fashion doll set rather than a shirt. To Aisha we gave a small paint book with interesting designs inside. Elikplim's present is very pretty. It is a little pair of gloves with a toy necklace. It is to play dressing up, and also she will receive a little toy dishes set. Reine has a colorful tamborine/xylophone set, and Ameivie has a baby doll with a few bottles. When you hold up the bottle to the baby's mouth, the milk seems to disappear. The baby outfit that we bought for (coming) Newborn Baby Assiongbo can be worn by either a girl or a boy. For Precious we chose a spy night scope, for Makafui some soft sports balls. They can be used inside the house, if you allow, because they are small and they are soft. The playdough that we bought for Kouevigah is something that little children in America like to play with. You make shapes with it, and then put it back in the little containers to keep soft after you are finished playing with it, so you can use it again. Each child also gets a few other very small presents besides the ones I am mentioning. Of course we normally keep presents a secret, but we thought that you and the parents might like to know about the little gift coming to their children. We also have a few little gifts for the house, that all of you can share. After the new year, we will see if we can find out about sending some clothes.

We wanted to ask you, is there a shop near you that sells second-hand clothing? How far are you from shops and from town and how far are you from the internet cafe? How is everything on the farm? We very much look forward to meeting with you in Yahoo, Joseph. We have been thinking about how you are able to get to town. How much does it cost for a motor scooter there? How much for a adult sized bicycle? How much would it cost to get shoes for the children and all the adults? We think it might be less expensive to buy these items in Ghana rather than to buy them here and pay the postage to mail them, but we will see which is best. We are always thinking of all of you, dear Joseph, and praying for all of you. We would like to have a picture of all of you, so we could see the names of each person and the each child, since you are all our brothers and sisters.

God bless you! We look forward to hearing from you again soon. We will send an email when the rebate money comes, so you will know that it is arriving by ikobo the next day.

With love in Jesus,
Char

Father, please bless Brother Joseph and the Believers with him. Provide what they need, Father, for their daily needs. Let their crops grow well. Let the families feel the joy of Your Holy Spirit, as they live together in Jesus' name.

Giving pictures of Jesus for Thanksgiving

We took pictures to the Sandia Church in Albuquerque on Saturday night and gave them to the people who came to get a free turkey for Thanksgiving, as advertised on TV by Pastor Mark of the church. Everyone who came wanted a picture of Jesus, and most wanted more to give out to others. One woman wanted pictures to hand out to homeless people on the street. One wanted some to send to her daughter in prison. She was so happy when she heard that we send free pictures to many prisoners! Another wanted some to send to her mother in Mexico. We gave away every 8x10 picture of Jesus that we had with us, every 4x6, every copy of THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST. Many people went through the line and received pictures of Jesus from us, and then came back to ask for more. We also had the wonderful opportunity to pray for people, for healing, and for help from Jesus.

Thankful

11-17-06 This morning Silvana was on the computer and she had the TV on, when she heard a man saying that his church was giving out free turkeys to anyone who knew someone in need or who might need one themselves. With the wonderful invention of the DVR, she rewound it and listened. It was the Holy Spirit causing her to hear this messagae. A Pastor of a church in Albuquerque was talking about a Thanksgiving turkey give away. He said they are giving away between 2,000 and 4,000 turkeys and said "If you or anyone you know needs one, call us.", and gave their number. Silvana told us about it and said to call the Pastor and offer him pictures of Jesus to give out with every turkey (as well as some DVDs of The Passion of the Christ) and offer our help in any way he needs. We called and left a message for him and were told he would call back later. In the meantime we prayed for him that he would want to give out the pictures.

When we talked later to the Pastor we told him what a good thing they are doing, and that we would like to offer these free pictures of Jesus for them to give as well. When he heard the pictures were from the Shroud, he said, "I've seen the Shroud of Turin.", and said yes he wants the pictures to give to the peopl. When we told him about the DVDs we have of The Passion of the Christ, he said, "That is a powerful movie." and he said yes he wants to give them out. We have been rejoicing all day at what Jesus is doing. We are thankful for this opportunity to lift up Jesus to anyone as He leads because we know that fruit will come.

Pictures to Ghana

11-17-06 Today we mailed out 5 packages to Ghana, Africa. We get a lot of requests from Ghana and a lot of them come from school kids, and college kids. We sent them all DVDs of The Passion of the Christ along with the pictures of Jesus. Pray for these young people who are always asking for the pictures, that they be comforted and encouraged by Jesus' picture of love.

Five packets mailed out

We sent out five packets of pictures of Jesus yesterday. One went to Venezuela, to a woman who said she wants to give the pictures to prisoners there, one packet to Ireland, one in the USA and two to Nigeria. We have been praying for Nigeria for an end to the violence that has erupted there in the last few years so we rejoice to send pictures of Jesus, the Prince of Peace, into their midst.

Four packets mailed out

11-7-06 Today we mailed out four packets of pictures of Jesus. One went to Georgia in the USA to a woman requesting more pictures, who said that she and her children have been passing out the free pictures of Jesus and the writing JESUS IS ALIVE AND KNOWS YOUR NAME in their hometown. We sent another packet to a teacher in a Catholic School in Washington State who requested them for her students. We included an 8x10 for the classroom. A third packet went to Texas, and a fourth to a teenager in Ghana, Africa.

Mailing Updates

10-31-06- Today Operation Jesus Pictures mailed out 6 packages. Four went into the United States, New Mexico, Texas, Louisiana and Florida. The other two went overseas, one into the UK and the other into Ireland. The one that went into New Mexico went to a man that we bought some of the gifts from that we are gathering for the Rwanda feast at Christmas time. We are excited about this gathering before the Father and we are preparing two packages that we will mail soon to Pastor Jean and his wife with a variety of items that they will use in preparing for the feast. We have 22 packages left that are ready to mail and Jesus has shown us that He will provide for them to be mailed. He is always right. The cost to mail these packages will be $502.79. Currently we have 8 requests in the United States to fill and 6 requests overseas, three going into India and one into Canada, one to Ghana, and one to Pakistan. Please pray for all these who are requesting pictures, for them to know that Jesus will help them and will speak to them and show them what to do in each situation they are faced with. Jesus please help all these who are requesting pictures, and all those who will receive Your pictures as a result and we thank You for what you are doing to reach the people.

Today Char and I talked to a young man to whom we have previously given pictures. He is giving them to his family and friends and people that he meets. He spoke to us of a man who has cancer, and that he is praying for him and is going to give him a picture of Jesus. We will be seeing him again soon and we are going to give him some more pictures and DVDs to share. He said is going to spend Thanksgiving his family and will take the pictures with him and some DVD's to give them, a perfect day to lift up Jesus and be thankful for His blood, and His love. While we were talking, Char saw some things about him and something that happened in his family when he was young. Jesus moved to speak to him about the truth of the matter. We saw a relative of this young man,in the cloud of witnesses that had been brought forward to hear and see the help this young man was receiving from Jesus. The person Char saw had grievously wounded this young man by an act of suicide, and now is so sorry for the pain he had caused him because of it. The Father wanted this young man to know that his relative now understands his actions had caused harm and that this person wanted the young man, his son, to know how sorry he is. Char spoke to him about hearing from Jesus and that he and everyone who wants Jesus will be more confident as time goes on and start to hear and recognize His voice. Thank You Jesus, God Bless this young man, please help him in his life and help him to know that the time he and his family have spent apart is not lost, he will be reunited with these that he loves, and then those years will be restored to

him.

The Father says about all our lives and the wounds and scars we bear in the earth: I will restore what the locusts have eaten.

A letter about the pictures from Uganda

Morning , I thank you so much for spreading the good news about Jesus allover the world and letting many people know that much as they may be suffering, Jesus still loves and cares about them. i strongly believe that the Jesus picture and the message on it gives hope to many people in the world and actually helps them to believe that Jesus has aplan for them.
My name KAMBA J is from Africa, East Africa, Uganda, Kampala. Am a university student at a University in Kampala persuing a bachelors degree in Information Technology and in my second year.
Am very much interested in being of help in giving out Jesus pictures and therefore am requesting that you allow me serve God through offering my services to you.
Please reply and let me know what i can do in the promotion of giving out Jesus' pictures.

Thank you


Hello Kamba J, We received your letter and are glad that you are moved by the pictures. If you would like to give out the pictures and some DVD's of THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST, we will be happy to send them to you. If you have read anything on our website, there is a good friend of ours in Uganda who first took up the pictures to bring into Rwanda. He is now giving out the pictures in Uganda. The pictures have been given to many nations. The reaction is always the same, people immediately put them around their neck, and they start to talk to Jesus. That is the greatest purpose of the pictures, that people would begin to want to talk to Jesus and He has promised that He will speak to them. They see love in the picture, it is powerful. The film is the same, people feel that they need Jesus and begin to change. So many testimonies about this. We encourage you to go to our site and read our blogs. The Holy Spirit is moving with power to reach the world at war. If you would like to give the pictures to others, let us know and we will send them to you. May God bless you, Kamba J, with His presence and love, for you and your family.

In Jesus' mighty name,

Silvana Lupetti
OPERATION: JESUS PICTURES

Letter from Pastor Jean

This is a letter from Pastor Jean in Rwanda. The dvd's he is referring to are THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST. The letters are some we received in Swahili and French which our brother Jean answered for us.The feast he's talking about is on Christmas Day. It is a day of the King's Feast. A feast from the King, and a feast for the King All the details of this are in Char Tierney's blog titled: A King's Feast for Rwanda. We have already begun gathering toys and gifts for this gathering and raising the money for the food, and the gifts. We are going to be with them in spirit and we know that the Father will be moving among us all on that day. If you feel moved to help us with a feast for Rwanda, write to us and we will be happy to be lifting up Jesus together. Pastor Jean is now a representitive of Operation: Jesus Pictures in Rwanda. We thank him and his wife Beathy for their faithfulness to the Father in taking up the pictures and the PASSION for Rwanda. May the Father always be leading them, and protecting them as they go forward with this Operation.

The people who lived in darkness, have seen a great light. May this be true in Rwanda, that suffered so deeply, and may this be true for all the world He loves so much.

Updates

Operation Jesus Pictures received a phone call the other day from a young lady in New Mexico asking for pictures. She said her boyfriend was in a plumbing business and got a picture of Jesus from someone there and he wanted to know if he could get more. As I talked to her about the pictures and sending enough for him to be able to share, and how Jesus is helping people, if they are sick or if they are having problems in their family, what ever the need is that Jesus is helping them and talking to them. She asked if we could also send her pictures. She said she wanted to be able to give them to her family and friends also. Of course, we are delighted to give the pictures to everyone, we know that the pictures lead people to talking to Jesus and His promise is that He will talk to them and help them. This is what the Father wants for the whole world at war.

We received another call from a women in New Mexico asking for more pictures of Jesus to give out, we have sent them out several times to her. She found out about the pictures through the Operation Jesus Pictures t.v. show that airs in certain areas of New Mexico. (through Comcast cable, Thursdays at 2:00pm on channel 27) She said she was flipping through the channels and came across the show. She said she wears the picture of Jesus whenever she goes out and she carries pictures with her to give to people. She said people in her apartment complex will ask her where she got the picture she is wearing and then she will give them pictures. She recently had to have surgery and asked us to pray for her, she said she is still in a lot of pain.

We are so glad to be able to send pictures of Jesus to these who will give them out in their neighborhoods, this is what everyone who loves Jesus can do, lift Him up as He leads to people who live close to them. Jesus, please help this woman who had surgery, please take away the pain and let the recovery be quick and let the area be stronger then it was before the surgery. God bless both of these who are asking for pictures to give out and Father, let them feel Your presence, and please help everyone who receives Your pictures. Thank you Father, in Jesus' name.

More updates

Yesterday, October 27th, I went out to do errands and I took Jordan, my 9 year old son, and Neeko with me. (Neeko is Nicole's son, she is with Operation Jesus Pictures) While waiting at an office to take care of some business we met a woman sitting behind us. I was stringing pictures of Jesus and I handed a pack of 4 to Neeko, he is 4 years old. I told him if he sees someone he wants to give them to he can. It's our experiance that children love Jesus, and love the pictures, they ask to give the pictures to others. After a bit Neeko wanted to give them to the lady sitting behind us, so he did. She was so grateful and told us that her son who is 7 will want one of them. She started to talk about her son and said he has an attention deficit disorder and is having a hard time learning because of it and she is worried about him. I told her we would pray for him, that Jesus will help him. We ended up giving her around 40 pictures because she said she has some neighbor kids she would like to give some to. Jesus please help this lady's son, will you put Your hand on him and change this condition he has. Please help all the mothers that are worried about their children, let them know that You are the source of help that will change their lives. Thank You, Jesus.

Later I met a woman who is a nurse at a local hospital. She was next to me in line at the store, we had a little time to talk because someone in line ahead of us was having a problem with an item that was suppose to be on sale. I ended up giving her everything I had left in my pack, which was about 20 or so pictures. I told her she can call Operation: Jesus Pictures anytime for more. She works in the children's ward and said she has never seen anyone coming around and praying for the children. I told her that she can call us and we would go down and pray for anyone that wants prayer. I told her about my husband Doug being in the hospital, and that he was stringing the pictures in his room, and the nurses and others would come in and ask him for pictures for their families and for the patients there. Also I told her about Jordan being in the hospital and we were giving out the pictures and the people wanted them, and were so glad to have them, they would put them around their necks right on the spot. As we got up to the cashier I gave him some pictures.He had heard some of the conversation between this woman and I, when I was leaving he asked me if I would pray for him. I said I would and I gave him a 4x6 picture of Jesus and told him Jesus will help him. You see, the timing of these things is the work of the Holy Spirit, who is always looking after us, to help all our woes. Father, please bless and help this woman who is taking Your pictures with her to her family and to the hospital, please move with healing there in the children's ward. And help the cashier, this young man that heard us and yearned for Your help. Father, bring him closer to You and speak to him. Let him know that You are real and care about his troubles. Thank You, Father, in Jesus' name.

Cubans want freedom

10-21-06 Today we mailed out another package to Cuba. Jesus, please send angels with it, let it get there quickly, through customs quickly and safely to their house. On 9-2-06 we mailed close to 1000 pictures, and then we got an email a little less then a month later from them asking for more, 2,000 more! (This is posted in previous blogs if you would like to look back.) There is a weight limit to Cuba, packages cannot be over 4 pounds so we packaged their request into two large mailers, and this package had 1000 pictures which they offered to string. It also included large and medium pictures of Jesus, some DVD's of the Passion of the Christ and the tracts, Jesus is Alive and Knows Your Name in Spanish. We are praying for Cuba. They want their freedom and we see this in the courage they have as they risk their lives, and some have died, coming over into United States. Father, let Your pictures, Your presence, spread throughout the country, and let the people speak to You, and hear Your voice, please bring freedom to the people of Cuba. Join us, and the Cubans in Miami, and the Cubans that are with the Father, who are praying for their freedom.

A great price on string for the pictures

Jesus got us an amazing deal online buying the string we use for the pictures . We used to buy our string in the stores, such as Wal-Mart, where we got the best deal, unless we found it on sale at a fabric store. We could buy 350 yards for $1.99, which would string 350 pictures. We bought it online the last time we purchased it and paid .40 cents each, which is a very good price and we were rejoicing. Char went back online to buy more string today and Jesus gave it to us for 19.5 cents each! Thank You so much Jesus for giving us this string at that price! And thank you, Merle.

And it will be enough string for over 235,000 pictures! He gave us the seeds for Joseph and his flock of believers in Ghana, for only 2 cents each. He helps His people in every way, if we don't have enough cash, He drops the price, practically giving us the item. And this string will cover almost a quarter million pictures for $205.00. We mailed out a packet of pictures today into the state of Georgia, to the person we are buying the string from. She knows what the string is being used for, and thinks it is a very good thing. When people work together for such a right and good reason, we gladden the heart of the Father. God bless her and her family for helping the Father lift up Jesus to the world.

A miracle after passing out pictures of Jesus

We thought we would post this link again, for those of you who have not yet read about this miracle that Jesus did, after someone passed out the free pictures of Jesus. The person who wrote this account was one of the first to receive pictures of Jesus, back in 2002, when the Father first told us to start distributing the pictures of Jesus, free of charge.

A BACKPACK FOR PASTOR JEAN

A BACKPACK FOR PASTOR JEAN IN RWANDA
Click here for photos

OJP purchased a backpack for Pastor Jean, to use while he is traveling on his new scooter that Jesus provided through His faithful people. It is a really good one, with a lot of room in the pack. Silvana suggested we get the backpack for Pastor Jean, and sent Doug and Therese Cooper with OJP to a sports store since they would be likely to have the best backpacks. We wanted to get one that is sturdier and bigger then a normal backpack. Jesus' leading was great, and we got him the perfect one! The pack we got is big and black and has a built-in water container with a drinking tube that holds 2 liters of water. He won't even have to stop to get a drink as he travels! The pack has a large capacity for carrying pictures of Jesus, or anything he needs as he travels, such as a change of clothes, food, and the dvds of THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST, etc.

The person working in the store who helped us was very thoughtful concerning the needs for the pack. Therese showed him a picture of Pastor Jean's OJP id and told him that Jean lives in Rwanda and is taking the pictures of Jesus to the cities there. The worker listened and asked questions about the climate and distances he would be traveling, and then left to look in the back. He came out with the perfect backpack! Then he said that he could give us 20% off since it is the summer stock. Later he said, "I am overstepping my boundary here but, I am going to give 25% off because of what this is going to be used for".

We also bought the thickest chain lock they have, for the security of the motor scooter. When Doug and Therese were ready to pay they went to the cashier and the worker who helped us was explaining to the cashier about giving us 25% off on the pack, and he told her that it is for a man in Rwanda who is traveling with pictures of Jesus to give to people in the cities there. He even showed her the picture of Jesus that Doug and Therese had given to him. They gave her pictures also.

Thank you Jesus for giving Pastor Jean the perfect backpack. See the timing of the Father, having OJP go to that store when that particular worker would be there, whose heart was soft towards what the Father is doing in Rwanda. Thank you, Jesus and God bless the worker who helped us. As this kind man left to go back to his department, Doug and Therese thanked him for helping the Father with this work and he said, "You are welcome, I am glad I could help the pastor in Rwanda".

Pictures of Jesus as scattered seeds

We received a call from a woman today asking for pictures of Jesus who lives in Texas. She said she was out for her morning walk and a small picture of Jesus from OJP was on the ground in front of her! She said she picked it up and decided she would call us and ask for more. When she called she said how she found it and then she said, "It is a beautiful picture and I would like to have more to give out to my family." We rejoice when Jesus does this. He told us before we started giving out the pictures of Jesus that people would find them in various places.

One time a lady called and said she was walking out of a hospital and she found one on the ground. She said people were walking all around it and no one saw it except her. She said at the time that she knew that it was no accident and that Jesus put it there for her. A man called and said he found a picture on a shelf in the office he worked in. He said he was going through a very hard time and he knew that Jesus had made sure he got this. One time we got a call from a woman whose son was in prison who had sent her a picture of Jesus that he got from us. She said she received the picture of Jesus in the morning and had been holding it all day, becasue she did not want to put it down. She wept as she told me this. Thank you Jesus for loving and helping all these people.

There are so many more, so many people that Jesus has helped. Right at the right time, a picture of Jesus has come across their path and they knew that Jesus had given it to them. You also can do this for Jesus, just leave some pictures where He says, and He will make sure they get to the right person, at the right time. Think of the woman holding the picture tight. She feels His presence and then she will begin to talk to Jesus, and as we have said a thousand times, He will speak to them.

Felicia and family in Hawaii are safe after the earthquake

Felicia Dennis is living in Hawaii. She experienced the earthquake but she and her family are fine. We have been in regular contact by cell phone. Our prayers are with Felicia and her family as well as all our fellow Americans in Hawaii. Father please help those who need help and care in Hawaii. Thank You Father in Jesus' name.

14 packages mailed from those pictured on the table. Victory.

OJP has sent out a total of 14 packages this last week, out of the packages pictured on the table in an earlier blog. Thirteen went to various states in the United States, including California, Virginia, New Mexico, Georgia, and Florida. The last package went to the United Arab Emirates.

Included in these packages we sent, one went to a women that Char and I met to whom we gave a ride home. (While we were on our way she told us that she had just come from the hospital where a friend of hers has cancer. We prayed for her friend and gave her some pictures of Jesus, including an 8x10 for her to take to her friend. We also mailed more for her family and for her to give out.) Three of the packages sent were to a man and two ladies who have requested pictures several times to give out. We sent them 200 each along with tracts and DVD's of the Passion of the Christ to give out, Jesus please help everyone who receives your pictures, let them feel you close to them. Another went to a Pastor in California who asked if we would send pictures and Jesus is Alive and Knows Your Name tracts. We sent him 350 pictures and many tracts. The one sent to the United Arab Emirates is the 2nd package sent to him. 345 pictures were sent to him. We included large and medium non-laminated pictures as he asked to be able to make copies. Please pray for him and all those who will receive Jesus' pictures as it is dangerous there. Father, please protect him and help him with everything he needs and with what he is doing for You. Thank You Father for helping bring hope into the world at war.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to help us mail these.

Letter from Jean in Rwanda

Pastor Jean is talking about the package of 5000 pictures we sent to him, which included some clothes for his baby Ruth and some other things. The pictures and THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST film (sent as dvds) are having great effect on people in Rwanda. This is what the Father is doing, His lovingkindness is better than life.

Hello Char and Therese in OJP,

I am so happy today. I arrive right now in Kigali city from Bethany AME Church in Kigali Rural it is about at 12o km from the the city. We had there a nice day in their church and they were so happy to receive Jesus pictures and 3 dvds. It is a parish with 5 small local churches with about 400 christians. They were happy because last time the dvds and Jesus pictures were more important in their parish. I will send you some of the pictures taken there, They were dancing, singing and jumping of joy. I gave them today 600 free Jesus pictures and 3 dvds. Let me tell that my wife was so glad. She enjoyed everything you sent, she received her 20 usd you sent, a good pen, a block note and she enjoyed things for children. Especialy for Ruth clothes, She jumped up with joy" She told me to tell you, thank you, thank you so much." She does not have good words to thank you.

About the gift sent by Lydia, I can tell you that the widow also told me to give you her thanks. God bless you in all you do. The pictures of Ruth I have them now but I will send them together with that one on her gift from you. With the pictures from Bethany where I was this sunday. I feel so tired now and I was not able to send my testimony today because of my trip. I thank Therese too and I hope to meet you tomorrow. (in Yahoo Messenger) My Children are singing you for you gave them cars: "those toys". We all are thanking you. God bless you.

The Pictures go to prisoners - post by Therese Cooper

The other day my husband Doug and I were at the hospital, following up on the blood clot for which he was hospitalized earlier this year. We were giving out pictures of Jesus to different people, including the Doctor that was talking to us about Doug's situation. We were sent to a different department where Doug was to have blood drawn, and while we were waiting a guard came in with a young women, maybe 20 or 21, She was in shackles and a prisoners uniform. I went over to her to give her some pictures, which she in turn asked the guard if she could have them. The guard looked at them and said yes, I handed the guard some also. I told them that they could get more anytime. The prisoner took the pictures, held them and looked at Jesus, looked back at me smiling, said thank you and looked back at the picture of Jesus. There she is looking into Jesus' face and what does she see? Love, love, no judgement, He will help her, now His presence is around her.

On the way out of this department another guard came in with a prisoner and again immediately we went over and gave her pictures, she asked the guard if she could have them, the guard looked at them and said yes, and again I gave the guard some also. This prisoner was more downcast looking then the other prisoner, she looked at me as I gave them to her, she took them and looked at Jesus, showed them to the guard and then looked back at Jesus. As we walked away, she looked at me, she was grateful, I smiled and nodded at her, and she looked back at Jesus. And now it can begin for them, they can start to get to know Him, hear Him, and know Jesus will help them and the others around them. Jesus please help them and let them feel Your presence, and hear Your voice, and then tell others around them that they too can know You. And let all that love You, lift Jesus to the prisoners, and to the sick, and to all You lead so that hope can be present in their time of trouble. You are their hope, and the hope of the world at war. Thank You Father for sending us to the highways and byways of Your world, and may there alway be fruit in Your Name.

A mailing is prepared

To follow up our recent mailing, we have prepared packages to send out with every request we have received up through today. There are 25 packages, containing over 28,750 pictures to be mailed out! Four packages are going to Rwanda, five to Ghana, two to Cuba, one each to the United Arab Emirates, Uganda, India, England, and Venezuela, and several packages addressed within the USA. The cost to mail all these pictures will be $563. We know that Jesus will provide. Whenever He tells us to get the packages ready to go out, He makes a way to send them. Mary and Felicia and Nikki and Emily and Yvonne all made this possible by sending us the pictures that they have strung, and Mary and Felicia and Nikki and Jordan each gave some money towards the postage, so we already have $101 towards this mailing. Jesus, please provide what we need to mail Your powerful pictures all over the world, and bless each person who receives one. Let their testimonies of what You have done for them, or said to them, spread from one side of Rwanda to the other, from nation to nation, and all over the world, so more and more people can come to know You for themselves. Bless everyone who helped us in this endeavor for Your sake, Jesus, and bless Operation: Jesus Pictures as it goes forward in the future.

From My Shroud I come to you

We receive many phone calls for pictures as they are discovered by people in various ways. Sometimes in stores, in friend's houses, in offices, in parking lots, the Holy Spirit knows how to get them to the people. We received three phone calls recently. Nikki J. a member of OJP took a call from a woman in New Mexico who said her son was in jail that we had sent him pictures of Jesus and he had given some of them to family members, it's like a ripple in a pond spreading out further and further. This mother told us that her son is out of jail now and doing very well. He is going to school and will be graduating soon. She sees how Jesus helped her son and now she wants more of these powerful pictures to give out to others. You see how simple it is to give the free pictures, and then to see how Jesus helps them to come from darkness to light.

The second call was from a woman in the state of Georgia who was given a picture from a friend she said she felt so touched by the picture that she wants to give them out to people in her area. She is requesting 200, and is so glad to be able to give these to others. The Father is glad as well.

The third call we received was from another woman in New Mexico whose son sent her a picture of Jesus. She said she can feel Jesus from the picture, and she wanted to request more to give out to her family and friends so that they can also be helped by Jesus as she has been. So many times people tell us that they can feel Him, that love seems to be radiating from His face. Yes, it is, because He said "From My Shroud I come to you". He is with every picture we send.

We will be mailing all of these packages out soon, in fact we will be done packing up every request we have to date by tomorrow. Thank You, Father, for letting us be part of something so good, so right, lifting the Son of Man to every corner of the world, speaking of love so great and sacrifice so deep, reaching into our hearts and filling us with light and hope. In Jesus' name we will help You, Father. to lift up Jesus in the darkness.

A Great Mailing

10-4-06 Today we sent out a great, great mailing of pictures to people all over the world. 29 packages were mailed out in all, 8 of these went overseas, the rest to various states here in the U. S. One of them went to Brother Joseph in Ghana. As was previously posted, Jesus recently got a farm for Joseph and those with him to live on. Jesus did something else for them, we sent them over 250 packets of vegetable seeds!

The packets of seeds normally would have cost over $150.00, but we got them for $5.00!! Nikki went to Walmart and since the growing season is over they were on sale for 2 cents each! Jesus thank You for doing this for them! They have plenty of land now on which to grow food they have struggled and suffered with not enough food to eat and yet, stayed faithful to the Father. Jesus has many times given them money for food through us and others , and now He moves for them to be able to grow their own food. Jesus please bless their crops and give them plenty of rain for this food to grow. (Silvana asked Jesus to have it as though their crops were growing in the land of Goshen, protected and blessed.) In the package we sent another 5000 pictures that they will be giving to all those around and in other villages, wherever Jesus shows them, along with THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST. We will continue praying for them and for their crops that will grow from these seeds that Jesus gave to them. Perhaps they will be able to grow enough to sell the extra vegetables. In the meantime, we are asking the Father for money to give them for food, medicine and their immediate needs in their house, there are 30 men, women and children. Please keep praying for their provision as they stand for Jesus in giving out the pictures.

We also sent a package to Pastor Jean in Rwanda which has an uncut sheet of 21 pictures, which he can show to a printer in Rwanda and get a price to print the pictures there. We also sent him more of these free pictures of Jesus that are being distributed all over the world. Jesus, through His people, gave him the motor scooter so he is going to be able to take these pictures to much further places in Rwanda. Remember the Plan that the Father had for Rwanda? Now, there is a powerful opportunity to carry out that plan, thanks to the willing heart of Pastor Jean, and the support of people in the USA who love Jesus. Here is an excerpt out of a letter we recently received from Pastor Jean.

About the map, Silvana, I have it in my messages box and I had read what the Father said on each of them and till now Jesus pictures arrived in many areas like Kigali city, kigali rural, kayonza and Byumba, kibungo and Gitarama .Some pictures arrived in Ruhengeri,Gisenyi and some were sent in Goma/Congo. All these areas are in Jesus love and Jesus is doing some thing there and some send me written testimony and others talk to me! Some invite me in baptism of persons who repented after receiving Jesus picture and watching His movie! And so on! I hope in the future free Jesus Pictures will spread every where in those cities as now I have a transport means! God bless you and your family! Yours faithfully John!

Jesus is moving to heal them in Rwanda from the dark and wicked time of the genocide, through these pictures of Himself, and the THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST, which shows how completely He understands their sufferings as they came in contact with evil. With love, He is coming close to them and speaking to them. Here is another excerpt out of a letter from Pastor Jean.

You can see me baptising one boy (a t-shirt with big letters) you can see also some girls which Jesus inner-healed and spiritually! They gave their testimony and it was terrible! But Jesus healed them after watching his passion movie and taking freeJesus pictures; they talked to him and he talked to them!

We are so grateful to You, Jesus for all that You are doing. And we thank Rusty who has asked to pay the $25.00 a month rent for Pastor Jean. She is not wealthy, none of us are, but the Father provides and Rusty is helping Him. Thanks to all who have taken up this cause, to lift up Jesus in the darkness. Robert and Catherine H. have helped so much to further this Operation. Corrine K, whose tithe made the payment to get Joseph in Ghana and his flock to have a roof over their head and land to plant. Felicia D. who is steadfast in helping with the pictures any way she can, Suzanne S and Sid A and Pamela and Stephan D. and Doug and Therese have given blessed help along with Nikki and Antonio J. of OJP, who, moved by the Holy Spirit got the scooter for Pastor Jean, and Mary B who sends mailing money and strings pictures to put into the hands of people the Father is looking to, to tell them there is an alternative to despair, to suicidal feelings that the enemy desires to use to hurt the lonely and fearful. When the Body of Jesus moves together with His leading, as we have been doing, there is NOTHING impossible. He makes a way where there seems no way and fruit will be and IS the result. Jesus is the answer to the violence and hatred and suffering in this world, and we will lift Him up together and together. we are making an impact in this world in travail.

The pictures and the PASSION are working together to go straight past the mind and right into the spirit of each one who receives them, swifter than the enemy could ever dream of moving. In this time of upheaval and war the Father finds a way to reach us, and creates a simple but powerful and rapid way for people to look at the pictures and want to pour out everything to Jesus. The Father says that thousand are now talking to Him and He is answering and helping every one of them. The PASSION has the same effect.. put the pictures together with the film, and you have a weapon mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.

The other overseas countries that we sent packages to in this mailing were Greece, France, India, and Ireland. Thank you to all of you who send in donations to help in mailing these packages, and all those who string the pictures, and those who pray for us and pray for those receiving the pictures. Look at the fruit coming from giving out the pictures and rejoice that you are a part of it, for the Father sees your union with Him in this endeavor with great joy.

Letter from Matthew

Hello, I am Mathew. I've been looking all over the place for this particular picture after I saw it at a friend's place. I felt so moved by it I can't explain. How can I get one of these pictures? I want to give them to my friends. This is one of the most beautiful pictures I've ever seen of Lord Jesus. Thank you, Mathew

Cubans want the pictures of Jesus

We previously sent 1,000 pictures into Cuba and now they are asking for 2,000 more. We can see in the Spirit the fervency with which the people are reaching for this picture taken from a Shroud. This is the Father's timing as Cuba stands on the threshhold of freedom to give the Cubans hope and give them a reminder that Jesus is the best hope and is on their side. This is what the Miami Cubans know. The Cubans in Miami are praying fervently for their countrymen before the Father. They live in freedom themselves because they took a risk to get it. And they love all those left behind who are silent because of the barrier that stands between them and the rest of the world. Like an iron curtain, we get only a limited view of conditions inside because everything is controlled by those who rule over the country. The one true factor that speaks volumes is the risk they take to get here, to America. We know that Elian Gonzales had a mother that in bringing him to freedom in America, died. A death honored by the Father who gave His own heart and life to give us all freedom. As those in Iraq are showing their courage and need for liberty risking everything, including life, to be free, so now the Father wants freedom for Cuba. Pray for them with all your strength. And pray for us so that we may fulfill their desire for these pictures of hope from the Father.

Letter from Joseph in Ghana

Here is a letter from Joseph in Ghana. He has a total of thirty people with him including children, they are keeping their eyes on Jesus through many trials and hardships. They found a house that everyone can live in and farm the land. The Father is making it possible for us and those with us to help them get into this house. Our hearts are full when we pray for them, knowing their faithfulness in conditions that many in the church would be unable and even unwilling to bear. We are so glad that the Father is helping them, and we join together to give the Father a home for His little flock in Ghana. Father, thank You for Your loving kindness as these people give out the pictures of Jesus in a land so thirsty for Him. In Jesus' name.


Dear Char & everyone at OJP,Greetings to you all in the precious name of Lord Jesus Christ! We are overwhelmed with joy for the goodnews. We are so thankful to Jesus and to all of you for allowing Jesus to do His will through you. We couldn't wait but informed the landlord immediately, he was happy that we are coming up with the money, but he insisted that he had some bills of the renovation he did at the property which he must pay before the weekend is over, so we should try to give him at least half of the demanded advance(i.e. $200) before the 1st october when we will pay the rest. We do pray daily that Jesus will provide for the pictures and for mailing. It is also a goodnews to hear that you will be sending pictures and tracts soon! We are pleased that you have put the tract "Yesu le agbe be ya nya wo nuko!" on the internet so that other people can read it, and some people can print copies and share with others! Please share our greetings, love and thanks to all the brethren there. We look forward to hearing from you.Your brother,Joseph & the brethren here

5,000 MORE pictures to Rwanda

9-21-06 Today we mailed out the box of pictures to Pastor Jean in Rwanda. 5,000 pictures of Jesus- we are rejoicing! The people with Pastor Jean have gladly agreed to string the pictures themselves, which is an enormous help and insures more rapid delivery of the pictures. We sent them the tract Jesus is Alive and Knows Your Name in four different languages, Kinyarwanda, Swahili, French, and English. We also sent DVD's of the THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST that they will give to other villages, and pastors, and wherever Jesus shows them. God Bless Pastor Jean, and Rwanda and God bless Kenneth Ezra from Uganda who first answered the call to bring the pictures into Rwanda, his faithfulness has created new avenues and pastors to help spread the pictures and film throughout post-genocide Rwanda. Read his story on our page about Rwanda.

Father, let the pictures and the dvd's reach the most remote places that You have Your eye on. Give the pastors means to rent or buy dvd projectors to show the film. Push the enemy out of the path of these powerful tools You have provided. Thank You Father, in Jesus' name.

Testimonies from Rwanda

Hello Char! I right now received your lovely message and in the same time I received the testimony from one of Pastors who use Jesus pictures in their evangelism. His name is Rev. Twahirwa Mathias: I have told you that he has a children ministry for worship here in Kigali. So I gave to him Jesus pictures and DVDs [of THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST] he used them and they were so fruitful in his ministry - "Thousand hills ministry". As you can see below is his own message and I am proud "spiritually!" for what Jesus is doing every where with Free pictures and The Passion dvds! I God bless you for thinking about our nation! I am ready to work for Jesus every where he'll send me for his work! My thanks also to Rev; Mathias for his abnegation (devotion) in God's work! Char I received also testimony from the house owner but it is written in kinyarwanda. I shall send it next time with its translation! God bless you!-- Pastor Jean.

From THOUSAND HILLS MINISTRIES to Pastor Jean:

Dear Reverend,

It was delightful to watch the Passion of the Christ with the other group of teeagers. The grassroots leaders have been faithful and issued an authorization for that purpose. Up to now we do not have a DVD player but we managed to hire one. The projector did a very good job. A committed Christian bought for us petrol for the other hired generator. While watching the movie, for everyone there, It was as if Jesus was dying. Young people cried, shed tears, and accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior. We need to pray and join hands together to win lost souls to Jesus Christ. Some old people were with us and it was unbelievable to see a 69 old man cying! All of them could not hide their emotions. Praise the Lord. Although I could interpret for them the words written on the screen, all said that they understood everything and pledged to read again The Passion of Christ in their Bible. They went back home joyfully within their hearts their King, Jesus Christ. I urge you to find by all means appropriate material.

Our Ministry, VISION DES MILLE COLLINES, through its ministries under the name of THOUSAND HILLS MINISTRIES, intends to continue to help more people in remote village in that way, overcoming their physical and spiritual hunger. Please join me in prayer for this purpose. My ministry is still infant in need of health and growth to meet the need of people in the post genocide period.The pictures have been given to them after the watching of that movie. And I ned more and more DVDs to give.

Yours prayerfully,

Rev. Mathias Twahirwa

This is fruit. The Passion is available on dvd in bulk amounts in Sam's Club and Walmart. Please ask the Father about sharing the film and giving pictures.

Pictures to the troops.

Today we mailed out a box of pictures to our sister Mary B. in the U.S. who strings them for us. She says it feels good to do this for Jesus. (This is a tremendous help as we have so many requests and so much to do. It makes it possible for us to continue to keep relatively current. If you would be interested in helping us by stringing pictures write to us and we will give you the details.) Doug and Therese's daughter Emily also has asked to string for Operation Jesus Pictures, and her help is greatly appreciated. We also mailed pictures to someone in California who requested them.

While at the post office I was talking to the clerk who has a family member who is a soldier stationed in Iraq. This clerk has sent pictures of Jesus to him there along with the card that has the message from the Father: "Look to Me", in which the Father speaks to our troops. The clerk said that her family member is in the states but waiting orders that should be coming anytime. I asked her if she thought he would want more pictures to take back, she said he probably would and actually would like some to give out at the base he is currently staying at. So we will be putting together a package for him.

We ask the Father to stay by our troops as they face evil. They are on the front lines where evil is moving like a raging river. The Father has His angels to send with all the troops. These angels are powerful and well versed in combat. Stand with them. Do your part to bring freedom and hope to those near you as He leads you. Pass out the pictures and THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST. Do this, and PRAY. Talk to Him about everything, and wait for His response.

Do you know of anyone in the military? Do any of your neighbors have family in the military? Ask us for pictures for them to give out. They want the pictures because they need Jesus to help them through this war. One of my brothers -in law who is in the military got orders for Iraq, and we gave him a package of pictures to take. Thank You Father for everything You do. We love You.

Letters about the pictures of Jesus

9-13-06 We received the following letters today:

From Pastor Jean in Rwanda to Operation Jesus Pictures:

Today I was in contact with Pastor Mathias who has a children Worship ministry here in Kigali.The Jesus pictures were important for his ministry! Many children are joining his ministry every day! The glory is for God! I am receiving different testimonies from many people who had received Jesus pictures or Dvds of the christ passion! I would like let you know one of Testimonies from around. It is from AFRICAN METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH /Guerizim Parish here in KIGALI. You shall certainly have it at next! God bless you!

From Pastor Mathias in Rwanda to Pastor Jean:

Hello Pastor! We praise the Lord and we are glad to tell you that we are thankful! We can tell you that the work you did for us was very fruitful! the free pictures of Jesus were very important for evangelism throught the neighboring hills! Christians took them for people who need the Word and they were happy to receive Jesus! They received Jesus also in their hearts! We tried to shaw the passion of the Christ by a rented video and many people are now saved! They received Jesus.Nowadays our church is growing tremendeously! From 300 members now we are 650 in our local church! With our 3 choirs we plan to organize some God songs concerts in october and november just before Christmas, we shall need more pictures(more than 2000 pictures) please keep them in reserve for us! God bless you!

The above letters are evidence of the Father being with the pictures.Isn't this what it's all about? And the Father makes it simple: just give out the pictures, show and share THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST....He will do the rest

Rescue the perishing, Care for the dying,

Snatch them in pity from sin and the grave;

Weep over the erring one, Lift up the fallen,

Tell them of Jesus, the mighty to save.

Rescue the perishing, Care for the dying,

Jesus is merciful,Jesus will save.

Though they are slighting Him,

Still He is waiting,

Waiting the penitent child to receive;

Plead with them earnestly,

Plead with them gently;

He will forgive if they only believe.

Down in the human heart,

Crushed by the tempter,

Feelings lie buried that grace can restore;

Touched by a loving heart,

Wakened by kindness,

Chords that were broken will vibrate once more.

Rescue the perishing,

Duty demands it;

Strength for thy labor the Lord will provide;

Back to the narrow wayPatiently win them;

Tell the poor wanderer a Savior has died.

Rescue the perishing,

Care for the dying, Jesus is merciful,

Jesus will save.

More picture updates

9-12-06 We received a call this morning from a lady in Kentucky, she got a picture of Jesus from the same veterinary office as the man who called in yesterday. She asked if she could get more pictures and I mentioned we could send her more to give to her family and friends and she was glad to be able to do that, such fruit from the one place. Those of you with business or shops put out a basket for the pictures, let the Holy Spirit do the rest. AND HE WILL.

9-12-06 Today my son and I were at a customer's house, for the carpet cleaning company we have, when we were done cleaning I offered her a picture of Jesus. She looked at Him and then me and said, but you see we are Jewish. I told her she can ask the Father about Jesus. She said "We ask God many things." I told her if she will ask the Father and wait He will show her about Jesus. She accepted the picture and said "I respect Jesus' teachings but we don't believe like Christians. " I said "Whatever the Father says or shows you, you can trust because He is the One who spoke to Moses, and Abraham, and Elijah. "The One you are asking", I told her," is the One who told Moses to go and bring the Israelites out of Egypt, the One who spoke to Abraham, the One who Elijah proved was the true God." There was acknowledgment in her face about what I was saying and she thanked us. Now the presence of Jesus with the pictures is all through out her house, like a still small voice. The Messiah is calling to His chosen ones.

9-12-06 Today we mailed out 12 packages. One of them went to the college student in Rwanda we mentioned in a previous post on this blog, who was requesting pictures to give them out. We sent him 1000 pictures as well as DVD's of the Passion of the Christ and the Jesus is Alive and knows your Name writing in several different languages, their own tongue kinyarwanda, as well as Swahili, French and English. Five were to sent to France, one to Ghana, one to the request from Venezuela and the rest going to various states in the U. S.

Think of that student, young and eager to pass out these pictures, to fellow young students and to anyone the Father will reach. Pray for those who are in parts of the world passing out these pictures at risk to themselves. Pakistan, brother Nelson and Waheed. The danger is real, the same danger that Paul faced and all that have gone before us.

The pictures show up everywhere.

We received a phone call from a man this morning, who had gotten a picture of Jesus from his veterinarian's office in Kentucky. He called to ask if he could have some of our larger (8x10) ones. He said he really needs Jesus to help him right now because he and his family have been served with an eviction notice. He said he lives with two family members who are disabled, and would like pictures for them, plus a friend who has severe liver problems and his daughter. We talked for a while and as he told me all that unfolded between himself and his landlord I was looking at Jesus and Jesus said to me that He will help them. I told the man what Jesus said and he was so grateful, and he said he felt better already. He thanked us for the pictures we will be sending and for praying for them. We will be sending more pictures to them this week. Pray for him and his family. Father, we look to You for help, we see as You show the condition of this world and we know that it is Your love they need. Thank You, Father for giving us this tool that is so powerful that causes people to speak to You we know You will answer all who seek You. We will give the pictures out with joy and we thank all those who are helping us to do this great thing. A special thanks to Corinne K and Felicia who gave the money for postage to mail out all the packages we have waiting to send.

23 packets of pictures

9-8-06 Today we mailed out 23 packets of pictures. 19 of them went to various states in the United States and four went overseas. Thank you, Mary for the donation for postage which mailed these packets. The four going overseas went to the U.K., India, Russia, and Australia. We still have six packets to mail to France, awaiting the new translation of Jesus is Alive and knows your Name in French, and one going to Ghana.

We also have some large packages of 5000 pictures each that we will be getting ready as soon as possible, going to three different Pastors in Rwanda. Two other packages of 1000 pictures each will be going to a student in Rwanda, and a student in Ghana. We also a request for pictures from Venezuela (We got the request from Venezuala the day after Silvana prayed against Hugo Chavez and Char saw the Father send angels there, and Felicia saw the demons in that nation opposed by angels) and Ghana and Canada, and several requests to fill that came via phone calls.

9-7-06 We received a request today for pictures from another prison inmate. He writes as follows: Operation Jesus Pictures, How can I receive Jesus Pictures for myself and for some of the guys here? What ever you can send would be a blessing. Or let me know how I can receive information on how to acquire these picture. Thank you for your time. God Bless you.

Woke up from coma with Jesus picture in her hand

We received a call from a women this morning who said that a few years ago she was in the hospital because she had been poisoned. She was in a coma for ten days. When she woke up she had a picture of Jesus in her hand. She doesn't know who put it there. She said she knows that Jesus saved her life. At one point the doctor said to her daughter that he had done all he could for her and now it was up to "a higher power". She said no amount of money could have bought that picture for her and that Jesus saved her life. She has carried the picture ever since everywhere she goes. She called to ask for more pictures.

Mailing out pictures of Jesus

8-29-06 We mailed out nine packets of pictures today. Two were sent to Albuquerque, one into Florida, and another into Virginia. The others went overseas: two into Russia, one into Belgium, one Great Britain and one into Canada.

8-31-06 We mailed out fifteen packets of pictures today, eight went to various states in the United States. The seven remaining went overseas. Two went into France, one into India, one into the United Arab Emirates, (please pray for him, and those who will receive Jesus' pictures there, it is dangerous for them), one to Nigeria, Zimbabwe, and the United Kingdom. The one going to India wants to pass them out to people, so we sent him 1000 pictures along with 15 DVD's of the Passion of the Christ.

9-1-06 We receive many requests from prisoners, please pray for them.Today we received a letter from a prisoner who writes: Dear Sirs, I am presently in D.O.S. here in New Mexico. I'm originally from Colorado. I have once again turned my life over to our Father in Heaven. I just know it will be different this time, I have been in and out my whole life thru. I would like to have some laminated pictures of Jesus, please, and thank you. Different sizes would be fine. Your friend in Jesus.

We will be sending them out to him soon.

9-2-06 The request we received from Cuba recently was mailed out today! We sent them 890 of the strung pictures of Jesus along with some large pictures and some of the mediums and JESUS IS ALIVE AND KNOWS YOUR NAME tracts in Spanish. We also sent them several DVDs of the Passion of the Christ. God bless the people of Cuba. Jesus, please bring freedom to them.


9-02-06 Today we received a call from someone in Colorado, she requested pictures and a DVD of the Passion of the Christ. Her friend who recently requested pictures told her about the pictures of Jesus.

We also have requests from; Rwanda, Ghana, Russia, France, India, and Zimbabwe that we are working on. We are so grateful for those who help us by stringing pictures for us. It would be impossible to do this on our own. Thank you, Father, and bless everyone who participates with OPERATION: JESUS PICTURES.

Answer sent:

Dearest Rev, we are glad to hear from you. We will send you 5,000 pictures of Jesus. We string these pictures ourselves, but if you can get your church to string them, it will insure that the pictures will reach you much faster, please let us know right away. We will include the string. We would also like to send you free DVD's of THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST. We will send 10 to you to share with other pastors so that they may show the film and give pictures to people. If you can get here to New Mexico, please let us know and we will work out the details with you. We have two pastors giving the pictures in Rwanda, one is Francis and the other is Jean. The nation of Rwanda needs to know that the Father has not abandoned them and loves them with all His heart. You will be helping Him to bring that word and that comfort to many. Thank you, for loving our Jesus enough to lift Him up to the world He loves.

Jesus helps people get well

Earlier this year, Ann wrote to us from California asking for pictures for her dad. He was ill and we prayed for him. This is the email we received this week from Ann. We sent a packet to her the next day, including an 8x10 picture for her father to have close by.

Thank you for your heartfelt prayers for my Dad. He is actually doing much better and is recovering. He fell down a flight of stairs and at one point all of his major organs were shutting down. Now he is in rehabilitation and doing better each day. I printed a picture similar to this one and brought it to him. I believe it has helped him. It is not very good quality, however, so I will be happy to have this one to send him.

Ann
------------------------------------------------------------------

Also this past year, we prayed for the father of our friend Robert who was in the hospital and doctors were concerned that he might not live. This last month, whle speaking with Robert on the phone, he told us that he and his mother are both giving out the pictures of Jesus from OPERATION: JESUS PICTURES. They gave one of the pictures to the dad while he was in the hospital and he recovered swiftly. The father said that after receiving the picture of Jesus he felt Jesus' presence the whole time in the hospital. THANK YOU, JESUS!

Pictures to prison and to cancer patients

We received a request for 200 free pictures of Jesus from the Chaplain of a State Penitentiary. Pray for the prisoners. We are so glad whenever we receive a request for pictures from a prisoner. We know that Jesus will help them and we rejoice at this opportunity to give out 200. If you have friends or relatives in prison, send a free picture of Jesus to them. We have a special photo picture that is not laminated, so it should be able to be received in any prison. It is about the size of a playing card.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
My husband and I sat down on a bench next to a man and we starting talking to him. I showed him the pictures of Jesus and asked him if he would like to have some. He said yes. Then he told us that he is a paramedic, licensed in another state, and that right now he is doing nursing for cancer patients. He said he would give the pictures to his patients.

TAKING PICTURES OF JESUS TO THE HOSPITAL

The Father told us to go to the Hospital to give out free pictures of Jesus. He said, "Go in the middle of the week", so on Wednesday, August 23, 2006, Char Tierney, Therese Cooper and her son went together to the hospital with pictures of Jesus.

Jesus led us the whole time. We have been to hospitals before and you really have to be led by Jesus while there because many hospitals have a policy of "not mixing church and state" and therefore you often do not have much freedom in giving out the pictures. What we have always done when Jesus brings us to a hospital is give the pictures out as quickly as we can before we are forbidden to give them. (Which we have been twice after a certain amount of time.) But you will find that in hospitals, almost everyone wants one. And it was at a hospital that one of the most wonderful healings that Jesus has done around us happened:

This miracle happened in 2004, the day after the grandchild of Doug and Therese Cooper was born. We went to visit the newborn baby and new mommy and daddy at the hospital and of course we took pictures of Jesus along to hand out. While there, their youngest son, Jordan Cooper, gave pictures to one man and told him, "Talk to Jesus. He will talk to you." The man replied, "Oh, I talk to Jesus everyday. My son has a serious condition so I am always talking to Jesus to help." Well, we stopped (we were leaving) and gathered around him to ask about his son and pray for him. Just then the mom came along with the boy, who was 11 months old. The mother looked like she was in a state of permanent pain and shock. The father said that the baby had a condition in which the bones in his head were fusing together. He was going to have to have surgery soon or it was clear he would die. Jordan and Therese and I laid hands on him and prayed for him. Jordan asked Jesus to make the bones inside the child's head to become normal, just as Jesus created him to be. About two to three weeks later we got a phone call from the dad, who was filled with joy. Jesus had healed his baby! He said that they took him in for the surgery. The doctors did a last minute MRI to see exactly how the bones were situated before they started the surgery. Then they brought out the MRI from before and they put it up alongside the MRI from that day. They said, "We don't know how to explain this, but everything inside the boys head looks totally normal. Not only are bones no longer fused, but some bones in the back that had not developed have now 'stretched' and they are exactly where they should be". The dad jumped up and cried out, "I know how it happened. It was Jesus!"

So, this week when we went to the hospital, we took as many pictures as we could in a backpack. We had our last 20 of the 8x10s and about 40-50 of the medium size (4"x6") and probably five hundred or more of the smaller ones (about the size of a playing card) with string on them. (The smaller pictures are strung so you can wear them around your neck. Some people hang them in their cars.) When we got to the hospital, we suddenly decided to go to the chaplain's office first, even though we have had experiences with chaplains not being too helpful. There was an assistant chaplain (woman) inside and we gave her ten of the 8x10s and several mediums and probably about 75 of the card-sized pictures. She said she was glad to have them and she would give them to the regular chaplain and tell her that they are available and that if they run out we will bring them more. We asked her if we could give out the pictures in the hospital and she said we could go to the various desks and ask them if they wanted them.

This was like a wide open door! We left her office rejoicing! We went to admitting desks and nurses office on many of the floors and we would lay out the pictures on the desk with a smile and say, "The chaplain said we could offer them, and you can have them if you want, and people can get them from the desk if they want. This way no one will feel forced but will be free to have one if they wish." And everywhere we went the employees would take the pictures and let Char lay them out for others. And while Char talked to them at the desk, Therese would go around the room and give pictures to everyone in the various waiting rooms, and almost everyone would take one or more.

Finally, we were getting low on pictures and we went to the heart department and then we were going to go to intensive care. In the heart department every person took a picture of Jesus and we met a woman whose son-in-law was recovering from surgery, and we prayed for him. We left that department and went to go to the intensive care. Well, we hadn't looked on the chart to see where it was but we knew it was near the heart department, and in the elevator (where we gave everyone pictures of Jesus) two little girls told us that it was on the sixth floor. So, we went to that floor and got out and went into the intensive care. We had to phone from outside the locked doors, which we did, saying that we were there to bring pictures of Jesus. So, someone rang us in. We went to the desk and the man there said, "Well, I will take some for myself, and then just go and give them to the employees and take them around to everyone." So, we gave some passing employees pictures and then we started around the rooms. It turned out that we were in the children's intensive care - for babies. So,we went to the first room and we saw a woman inside so Therese quietly went in to offer the pictures while I waited outside so as not to disturb them. I told her to come get me if they wanted us to pray for their baby. They did, so Jordan and I laid hands on the baby while Therese stayed with the parent. The first baby had troubles with his intestines, and we asked Jesus to heal him. All the babies were hooked up to IVs and they had tubes stuck all over in their bodies. Therese went in the second room which was full of people. They all wanted a picture of Jesus and they wanted us to pray for their baby too, so Jordan and I washed our hands with disinfectant and laid hands on this baby too, who had problems with his lungs. The people's faces were so grief stricken. How much Jesus loves them. Char said that she wished He was there instead of her. Of course she knows that He was with us, but she wanted to be sure that they knew that He loves them and is going to help them and their baby. The third room we went to had a man inside and we did the same, with Therese quietly going in while Char waited outside with Jordan. They wanted us to pray for their baby too, who had just had surgery to reattach the esophagus to the stomach. While praying for that baby, and asking Jesus for the baby to recover swiftly and be healthy, Char saw Jesus. He was lifting the baby and throwing him gently up in the air over His head, and smiling in the little face when He caught him. She saw the little child healthy and strong, so we know that Jesus is going to answer our prayers for him. Thank you, Jesus!

We left when a stern faced woman came and asked us to go, but we praise God for the wonderful way He led us and for allowing us to pray for the children and the others that we met along the way. And may everyone who received a picture know how much Jesus loves them.
