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.

Leon Sexton talks about the role of Egypt in end time prophecy... Well, hello to all of you. Right now in the country of Egypt we've had a crisis going on. I think it's somewhat over at the moment, although I do not believe that the situation in Egypt is going to get any better. I don't think the relationship between the United States and Egypt is going to improve at all...
The sunflower is named for its ability to follow the sun in the course of a day. They can grow to be 12 feet tall under the right conditions. The students and I enjoyed watching our little "Sunflower" grow to 6 foot and live a happy, healthy, and full life.

Aung San Suu Kyi, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate and once one of the most famous political prisoners in modern history, is now traveling the world on behalf of the government and people of her native Burma (Myanmar).

Now her political party, called the National League for Democracy, is part of the Myanmar government and recently won 41 of the 43 vacant seats in the lower house of the Myanmar parliament. The military backed party still controls most of parliament, but her election and the inclusion of the NLD in government signals changes to come...
Dear Friends and Fellow Laborers, Last month I received a surprise telephone call from Queen Sirikit’s deputy private secretary. She said that Her Majesty was inviting Gloria and me to come to Bangkok for a concert. I explained that Gloria was already in California taking care of her 96-year-old Aunt Gerda for a few months. She said she would get back to me. A short time later, the queen’s secretary called back and asked if I would agree to accept the invitation and come alone. I said I would accept.
Who knew a little grain of rice took so much time and effort to produce! It is a small grain that is fairly inexpensive and unobtrusive but a staple food in most Asian countries. In late May at Jet Rye (3-1/2 acres), 30 minutes north of the school, we planted rice the Thai style or the wet patty process. As you will see below a full days work of tilling the ground, flooding the patties, pulling rice seedlings, and finally transplanting the rice plants in the two patties takes quite a bit of effort...
