Legacy Letter June 2015

Dear Friends and Fellow Laborers, Organic gardening has been an integral part of the Legacy school curriculum since its beginning in May, 2002, fourteen years ago. Students not only learn Bible, computer, English, health, and other academic subjects, they must participate in growing vegetables and grain crops to help feed students and teachers at Legacy. The picture above shows Ian Stewart tilling the soil in preparation for sowing corn and beans. Why would we emphasize growing vegetables here at Legacy? The answer is simple…

12 February 2016 – Hello Friends and Fellow-laborers,
Graduation is now over. This year we graduated five young men who successfully completed three years at Legacy International Leadership Training Center. After the invocation, I spoke about the goals of another leadership training school known as West Point. The main purpose of West Point is not just to study the art of war. The main purpose is to train young men and women in character development so they can serve as leaders in the world…

Dear Friends and Fellow Laborers,
The conflict over Jerusalem that culminates with the return of King Jesus is now heating up in the Middle East. Both Israeli and U.S. intelligence operatives have evidence that Iran is very, very close to having a weapons grade nuclear warhead that can be used against Israel. The U.S. believes it can “negotiate” with the mullahs in Iran. They also claim that economic sanctions will bring Iran into line. Recent history shows both those ideas are patently naive. Iran knows the U.S. is too weak to act, and the U.N. is a do-nothing organization. Former U.N. Secretary-General and now UN-Arab League envoy to Syria, Kofi Annan recently washed his hands of trying to bring some kind of resolution to the civil war in Syria2. The U.N. has become nothing more than an international sounding board for enemy nations to air their grievances against the United States and Israel.

Hello Friends and Fellow-Laborers, -PASSOVER AND UNLEAVENED BREAD- It is that time of year again with Passover just around the corner. It seems to my family here in Thailand that we have been under constant attack by Satan. We have all had bouts with the flu—and not just any flu, but a particularly bad strain that seems to stay with you for a long time. One after the other (each of our grandchildren, our son, his wife, Utaiwan Han, Gloria, and me), we have fallen ill with fever, coughing, and sinus infections. I came down with pneumonia and was in the hospital for five days. I am back home now and trying to regain my strength, so I have no problems when we go to Myanmar (Burma) for the spring holy days…
