Various packets of pictures

We mailed out several packets of pictures in the U.S. and 1 overseas to Malta the other day. The one going to Malta was a request for pictures of Jesus for refugees, so we sent them about 400 small pictures on string, two of the larger 8x10's, and five of the 4"x6" medium pictures of Jesus, plus THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST. We also sent many JESUS IS ALIVE AND KNOWS YOUR NAME tracts for them to give to the people.

One of the sets of pictures that we mailed in August was to Brother Joseph, a man living in New Mexico who had a stroke a few years ago and is now in a wheelchair. One day while driving with the prophet Silvana, she suddenly pulled over into this retirement home and said that Jesus wanted us to take pictures inside. We did so, and there we met Joe. This was shortly before THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST came out in the theaters. We went to the film with Joe, and he has been giving out the free pictures of Jesus to people on the street ever since then.
One time Joe told me that he told the Father that he would go out for 10 hours a day and give people the pictures of Jesus. He doesn't have very much mobility in his hands and legs since the stroke, and his speech is impaired, but his heart is for Jesus. What a shining example to all of us to do the Fathers' will. We just sent him a package with 300 pictures of Jesus, and some tracts of JESUS IS ALIVE AND KNOWS YOUR NAME in English and Spanish.

We also sent pictures to a priest at the UNM Hospital, who wrote asking for more pictures to give out. We have been to that hospital several times, giving pictures in the emergency room and in the chapel.
On Saturday we mailed pictures to Ghana, Canada, the USA, and other places. Our daughter was over at the house visiting and she pitched in to help pay for postage. We passed the hat, before leaving for the Post Office and three of our children pitched in. Our neighbor was over and he contributed too. Every penny counts when it comes to mailing out the anointed pictures of Jesus.
