I am sorry to say, a very good friend of mine is walking with Jesus today.


These two have been in my live for many years now. This is Tim Ryan and Eddie Fafinskis. The sad part is they both are walking on the streets of gold in HEAVEN. Eddie passed away last December.
Tim on the left passed last night in ICU in Wisconsin. He has been in there for 33 days. I was told it was from Covid-19. I have been getting updates from Felicia, his wife. 
Tim and his family have been part of Adventure Learning Centre and All saints Camp. Both ministries are in Nassau, Bahamas. 
At first Tim and his wife, Felicia use to come during the summer and help out with Mission Discovery. Tim was carpenter He worked well with his hands on any kind of project. So he would help out building what ever was needed at the time. Felicia work as one of the cooks at our ALC, camp. 
But after a few years they both believed they were called to The Bahamas to help out at the All Saints Camp full time. So they sold their things and bought a town house in Nassau, Bahamas (New Providence) 
Then started just helping out with the people there. Then they started getting more groups in to help build dorms. 
Folks, all the picture I had of their work in lost on a hard drive. So I am sorry I don't any more to share. 
Okay back to their building. It was so neat to see Next Step (collage age students) come over and help Tim build these dorms. I think they built four dorms with bathrooms in each one. These dorms had four rooms and a bathroom in the middle of them. So four persons could stay in these new rooms. 
Plus they built a dinning room too. That was the hurricane shutter too. 
But at the end almost everyone living there, their homes were repaired or living in the dorms. 
So Tim and Felicia really had a great ministry going on there. 
During their time helping at the All Saints Camp. they meet two children, Shadow and Rachelle. Their mom was living in one of the house's there. she became very sick and was not doing well at all. So Tim and Felicia talked with her and asked if they could take care of the children, while she was trying to get better.  So after a while or so, Tim and Felicia adopted the both. mean while the mother passed away and now they are a family.  
So as things move forward, Tim and family was working on moving back to the states. I know Felicia was having some health issues. But not sure all of the details. 
I do know they had all kinds of trouble selling their town house in Nassau. I am not sure but I believe there is still more to the story, about that. 
Folks I just wanted to show you a little bit about my friend Tim. He was a great friend and more to me. We did a lot of project together at the Adventure Learning Centre, plus the All Saints Camp. I know he will be deeply be missed. BUT I KNOW WE WILL SEE EACH OTHER ONE OF THESE DAY, WALKING WITH JESUS. 
Please keep their family in prayer, I can't  image the pain, Felicia and the children are feeling? 
Maybe Tim is helping in  building my house in HEAVEN?
