WHATS GOING ON!!! I have been extremely busy at work so...

I havent had the time to keep the Blog updated, but Im back and With more consistency!!


OK!
I have great news!

This weekend we took a trip to New York for various reasons:

1. Carmen had a Job interview in Beacon NY, it went well, however she didnt feel that it was going to a perfect fit, but the interview went on for close to 2 hours, that to me sounds like a good interview, right??
Anyways, Carmen is an asset to any place that would hire her, she is definitely a "HOT COMMODITY"!!
And Im not just saying that because she's my wife, she possesses excellent work ethics, and her commitment to get the job done is supperb! She is gifted for the area in which she chose for a career, and being a spanish speaking person only adds to her strengths. Being a Christian makes her 100% better at what she does (Whic is Master's Level Licensed Clinical Social Worker).
And again as we were looking at apartments in the Orange County, New York area, Carmen gets in contact with her fromer Bronx Employer, where she worked before we came to Rhode Island, and it happens that they are looking for an Assistant Director in the Social Workers Dept. Anyhow, getting to the meat of it, they are interested in re-hiring Carmen for that position and the pay is wonderful. The job is like 98% hers.

2. We went apartment hunting in Walden, Beacon, Newburgh, Marlboro, Maybrook, Middletown, Bloomingburg, Peekskill, Ossining, and finally Yonkers. We must have seen 15-20 apartments from Friday to Sunday! Finally it was really tough to decide, we loved these condos in Middletown, man we really liked them, but 1.5 hr commute from the Bronx to Middletown can take a toll on a person, we decided on an apartment in Yonkers in the north Yonkers section, really nice neighborhood and the apartment was awesome, in a thirteen family building!

SO WHAT DOES ALL THIS MEAN?
We are heading back to NY, MAY 1st, the apartment is I would say 75% ours. We are waiting for the Landlord to check our credit and references, which we have no doubt that will come up superb. We have an excellent track record.

Anyhow, we are excited that we are going back to the NY! It feels good to know that we are going back HOME!! WE are not of this world, and we are not of Rhode Island also!

So we are taking all the volunteers that we can to help us move, we need ya help either here in Rhode Island or in Yonkers when we arrive! So sign up the sheet is going around!

Hey, remember the LORD's Hand is upon us, and we are coming back STRONG!!

PRAISE GOD!

ONE HOLLA

LUV YA!

Hey an update to a story I posted before in one of...

Sorry I know that I never finished my story I will get to it, but I have been busy and unmotivated, sorry!!

Love ya



This is an update on those Missionaries that were framed in India, accused of murdering a child.

Read on...

Dear Mr. Kyne,I have wonderful news to report to you today: Because of the prayers of God's people all around the world, our missionary in Rajasthan, India, has been released from jail!When a little child in Pastor Kasota's community died after suffering a lengthy illness, the pastor and several members of his church were framed for murder by Hindu fundamentalists. As soon as we heard of their arrest, we asked you and other members of our GFA family to intercede for their freedom. And the Lord has been so faithful to answer. Pastor Kasota and these Christians still need our prayers. Although they have been released, their court case continues.

Click here to read the full story: http://www.gfa.org/newsupdate031406Let us also pray for Pastor Kasota's ministry to be increasingly effective in this area of India, and that his persecutors will come to personally know the love of Jesus. We must always recognize that in our labors to reach the lost, "we do not wrestle against flesh and blood" (Ephesians 6:12). I am so very grateful for your partnership with us at Gospel for Asia. Through your prayers, you are helping spread the Gospel to remote and sometimes hostile regions where the name of Jesus is not yet known.

May the Lord bless you.
Yours for the unreached,
K.P. Yohannan

Part 3! My Testimony!

Hey, Im going to try to finish My Testimony today! Aight! If I don't finish then the check is in the mail!

When I last left off we had just had an encounter with that baglady at the Beach in Ft. Lauderdale, and we went back home a bit perplexed, yet life went on, and we shortly forgot about that encounter, but it was still in the back of our minds.

About the third week in Miami, I found a job working at a store equivalent to Macy's, it was called Burdines of Florida, it was an awesome store, and I worked the Visual Display Department, I loved my Job, and I was the only straight male on the whole Visual Display Team, and there was 15 staff members on the team, and 2 were females. My job involved various and multiple tasks, from setting up specialty shops, promotions (Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger, many different name labels) cosmetics, and fragrances (I got to meet Oscar D'Larenta, he wanted my hair for some odd reason, I think he had water in the canoe too!) dressing up manequins, coming up with creative concepts, our job was to make everthing appealing to the eyes, we were also a flaqship and prototype store, that meant that we got alot of creative liberties, and the best budget to advertise!

Moving along, I began to become very bored in Miami, I believe that when I first got the job I didnt have a car, so I couldnt do much, and my sis was always out, and my brother was into video games, hanging bumming out. I got really disinterested quick, and I wanted to smoke more, but I didnt know where to get it. I had introduced my brother to MaryJane a few years back, and he really didnt have any connex. So I was sad. I met this lady, who had demonstarted an interest in me (she being from New York also), she was older, and I was not interested in her at all, but I didnt have much friends, so her friendship was reciprocated. She had a son, and he became my smoking buddy, in fact, it was kinda ackward, cause I wasnt interested in his mom at all, and his mom used to tell him that she dug me. Weird, but hey I wanted to get high, and they had the connex.

About this time, maybe like 6 weeks into living in Miami, my dad and I bought a car, I saved up enough money to pay for more than half and my dad helped me out, I bought my first car, a Nissan 300ZX two seater, a sports car, it was an old car, but it was in mint condition, and we got a good deal on it. I was one happy camper, oh I forgot to mention that around this time I also moved in with my dad to Hialeah. Interesting time, Alice knows!

Ok, so now I have a good paying job, because I came from New York, and I had some prior experience working Visual Display, they upped my pay, and I was chilling! I had a car, I could get around, and I was getting my smoke on, and then I started to go clubbing, coming from that environment, being a club promoter in New York and all. I also bumped into an old friend, let's call him Crazy Rob. (Chin the moment you have been waiting for!) Actually, my boy Chin, you know him as Alex, told me that Crazy Rob lived in Kendall, and I was like yo, I know Kendall, my sis lives there. So I get up with C-Rob. C-Rob had his own crib, a nice crib too, the complex had a Gym, pool, game room, and many other things. Rob had a two bedroom apartment, and he had just broken up with his girlfriend, or something like that, I never quite got the whole story right. But, Rob was an interesting character. Rob had a nice whip (Car) I think it was a BMW or something like it, but the problem was that his license was suspended, and I didnt know why, I didnt really care, but at this point I was a bit happy to have found some kind of remnant from the past, a friend: Crazy Rob.

C-Rob was very meticulous and liked things a certain way, I used to crash at his crib alot cause we used to hang out late, clubing and all, and He supposedly used to go to school, more on that to come. Rob also used to come home loaded with mad cash at times, he used to show it to me, and it was alot of cash. Oh, I forgot to mention that I somewhat became Rob's chauffer. Rob had this raspy voice, and for some odd reason he didnt like to tell people that he was Dominican, he used to insist to tell people that he was Italian, oh and by the way he didnt look Dominican, he was fair skin and he could get away with saying that he was Italian, heh.

Rob was into material things and making money, I was into being happy, and just chilling, money was and still isnt an aspiration for me. I just want to live with peace. So Rob used to bug out, really bug out. For some reason he rubbed people the wrong way, girls in Miami werent too found of him, he used to have that "it's your lost mentality", and it wasnt working. Im not the most handsome fellow in the world but hey I "had" game. But Rob was responcible for alot of lonely nights, Just the Two of us!

Hey, I don't realize how long, and detailed my Testimony is, so once again I have to say I will continue later!

Remember that was the past, and today I am a new creature in Christ!!

See ya and I love ya, and have a good weekend!! Mi Gente!!


JESUS loves ya!

One, Les

The trick is cross your eyes, stare, and move closer or back until you can make out the inner image, Good Luck!
