This was our Feb. 14th party

It was such a great time to get together and have fellow ship and eat some great food. Hey we got talking about how women here own their own homes. I just asked them and three of them told me they have bought. I know guys back in Florida that have bought their homes. I only know a couple of s back there that have bought. Knowing this the guys here just don't understand and they look at these s and feel they are not as good as the women that own homes. So they will not even talk with them. But now I living back in Florida or here would be neat and I would not have any trouble with that. No problem Man.
Hey it sure is nice to get all together and enjoy a night of fun. We even played a game of bingo using the Valitimes theme. I wish I could tell you I won. BUT no every one else did. My problem was, we were using paper boards and unpoped corn. The fan kept blowing my paper around and the seeds blew off too. I hope and pray that things are doing well for all out there and if you want to talk, PLEASE feel free to write me any time.
That would be toms@alcbahamas.org
I love hearing and listening to my friends out there.

Gifts from my Family Ministry, plus sheets and stuff.

Calvary Family Ministry 2008

This last weekend we had a group come in from Ft Lauderdale, Fl. Their heart was to bless others and even blessing us with some very needed tools. I was only with them during the time they handed out fliers, for the next days, outing. I was watching all the kids and parents. they just look like they were here to have some fun and let the Bahamas children know how much they love God. I saw how the Bahamain kids just ran to them and wanted what ever they had. I was not there for the outing at Pinewood Park, but I heard there was about 200 kids at one time there. Folks this is what our children here need, love and just letting them know how much we all have to give. That is why i am here and I believe now I will have more time to spend with the Camp groups this next season. So please if you see Reuben or any one from this group, let them know how much we at ALC love having them come. I did have a little time to talk with one of the single moms (Alva) and I hear how much fun she had too. She just had a great time and she felt so much love here. She is from a island herself. If I try to spell the island's name, you know how I spell.
I did have a chance to hand out my card and I really hope I do hear from them. Folks this is my way of letting the world know what is going on in my life and here at ALC. If you could please pass this blog on to others, I love sharing the things that are going on here and in my life.

Something I caught myself doing.

Last week I went out and got a couple of movies. The guy at the store told me these are great ones. Well I got home and stated watching this one, it is true store. It started out with a seen with Tom Hanks and these three women in a hot tub, all with out clothes. I kept watching knowing this was a true story and it must have a good story line. Watching it, one of my room mates came in during this time. There was a lot of differ words too. He sat down and kept watching it with me. He didn't say anything. We finished watching it and went to bed. I got to the bed and walk back to the living room and got the movie and destoryed it. The next morning. I saw my room mate and told him about what I thought of the movie. I told him I was sorry for him to see that movie. I told him I destoryed it. He told me he felt bad too and he was so glad to hear what I had to say about it. So from this point on I have asked my room mates to say some thing if they come in and hear or see something that is not to good to do. The story you see after this you can understand better. I know what is good and bad but sometimes we look at things and our hearts get a little bit harder. Then the next time a little bit more. so please check what you are watching and have others help you too. s this is to you too. I know some of you out there like to go to the edge and just push it a little bit.

Would like to share some thing I am dealing with.

I have a store for you all. I might have share this before but I believe this will hit home.
There was this family. The children wanted to go to the movies. So dad and mom pack up the car and left to see what is playing there. They got there and was looking at the ratings and the write up on each movie. Well one of the children said dad, this one has a little bit of in it. Then his daughter tells about, this one has a little bit of in it. The last children spoke and told of the other movie had a little bit of . Well, the dad listen to all of other reviews. He tells his family may be we should go home and find some thing that we have there, plus he would make brownies. Okay they said and they piled back in the car and left for home. When they got there he told his kids to get the movie ready and he would be in the kitchen making the brownies. After a little while he came out with the brownies and told them not to touch until he had a chance to tell them a little story. The all gather around the table and listen to their dad. He started out with remember what you all told me about the movies? Yes dad, well now while we talk about the movies, remember the little bit of , little bit of , the little bit of . well now let us look at this and the brownies that I have made. During the time making them up I went to the back yard and you know George our dog, well I picked up a little bit of his dodo and mixed it in with the brownies. Now let us talk about the little bit of things. What do you think about a little bit of stuff. Okay now let us eat these brownies that have a little bit of George' s dodo mixed into it.

Please let your kids know about this.

This is a new known as 'strawberry quick', I don't know if this applies to Nassau & Freeport but I guess it's better to be safe than sorry.

There is a very scary thing going on in the schools right now that we all need to be aware of.

There is a type of crystal meth going around that looks like strawberry pop rocks (the candy that sizzles and 'pops' in your mouth). It also smells like strawberry and it is being handed out to kids in school yards. They are calling it strawberry meth or strawberry quick.

Kids are ingesting this thinking that it is candy and being rushed off to the hospital in dire condition. It also comes in chocolate, peanut butter, cola, cherry, grape and orange.

Please instruct your children not to accept candy from strangers and even not to accept candy that looks like this from a friend (who may have been given it and believe it is candy) and to take
any that they may have to a teacher, principal, etc. immediately.

Pass this email on to as many people as you can (even if they don't have kids) so that we can raise awareness and hopefully prevent any tragedies from occurring.

Hello to all,

Yesterday I posted a Amber Alert. I have found out it was a hoax and I pulled it. I am sorry but I believe my fellow friends send these things knowing the truth. But this one was not. I am sorry if I started some thing. Please make sure when ever you send something, you know it to be true. Please pass this on to others about the junk that is being passed on. We as Christians want to believe every one out there. Thank you again and I will try to stay on top of these things when they come to me.

Good day to all.

I just want to share a story about how GOOD God is. About a week ago we had the games with Patmos students. During that time I was taking pictures. So during one of the games I was in. My camera that I bought back in the states in June of last year. Which only cost me around $150.00 dollars. It got broken. I tried to safe it and make it work but my efforts were not the answer. So now not have a camera and NOW my blog is working. What do I do? Do I go out and pay some good money for a new one? Oh the camera I had is from Costco. So if any of you know they pretty much will take it back and give me a new one. Okay, back to the story. So this last week we had a group in from Mission Discovery. They stayed at the Camp and worked at the Ads Camp during that week. Well thinking and asking God what should I do?? I asked Don, the leader. Could he just ask his group if any one would like to sell their camera, so they could go buy a up grade? He said no problem, what do we have to lose. So he did and this couple named Tina and Tim decide to give me their REAL nice Sony, with case and extra sticks for pictures too. PLUS they would not take the money I offered to them. So I just want you all to know how much God just loves to give us gifts. I just want to say THANK YOU to all of you that God uses to help and pray for us missionary that believe we are doing His work. If you see that couple out there PLEASE give them a BIG hug and I know He will bless them too. Thank you all.

This the Men's group I was talking about, before.

I LOVE YA

One morning you will never wake up..... do all your friends know you love
them? I was thinking...I could die today, tomorrow or next week, and I
wondered if I had any wounds needing to be healed,
friendships that needed rekindling, or three words that needing to be said.
I want to let every one of my friends know I love them. Even if you think
they don't love you back, you would be amazed at what those three little
words and a smile can do. And just in case GOD calls me home before I see you
again...... I LOVE YA!!!
Send this to the people you love and send it back to the person who sent
it to you.....

Live today to the fullest because tomorrow is not promised and I think we
all know just how fast a life can be ed out. Prayers by all you
wonderful people kept me here for a while yet.
