Dear Stephanie,

I am sitting here at work. The wind has picked up. I am thinking of a subject that is important to me: AMERICA. The United States.

I saw a video today, which was labeled a “truther” video. But in the video, a ceremony where the a pair of our Founding Fathers were mocked. People do not realize, THAT is the so called “New World Order”. They mock the founding of our country, because to them freedom makes no sense. The only thing that makes sense to them, is there power. It is better to be an American, than to be King of England.

Our freedoms come from the Bible. Liberty is in the Bible. Our laws, especially the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the Declaration of Independence, are based on the Bible. They are also based on English Common law. At one point, the English did understand freedom. Just not the New World Order, that mocks our founders. Yet, the “truther” let it play. It was so obvious to me, that the participants, nor the observers, were aware of how they mock the founding of our country, claiming that it is merely an invention of the Freemasons. As though, that is somehow a bad thing.

Did you know, that George Washington prayed for our country? They mock him, calling him a freemason. Which in there language is the same thing as a traitor. George Washington gave us freedom. Then, in the 21st Century, in 2020, President Trump went to the Cathedral of Saint Peter to pray- for America. And they mocked him. Calling him, just like George Washington, a “freemason”. A Jesuit plant. There we have it, anyone who prays for America will be mocked, does not matter whether they are George Washington, or President Trump.

All the while, that Joe Biden has been President, he has not once prayed for our nation. Nor, prayed for relief from the pearls he has faced. Biden has not sought God’s help, because Biden knows, if he does, he will lose face to the democrat party. Yet, the help is there.

Wake Up America!

Jesus Christ! Jesus Christ, America’s one true ally. Friend. Saviour. Jesus means “Friend”. There is a song, “What a Friend in Jesus”, perhaps it is time to listen to that song. No, I won’t force you, or anyone else to listen to it. You might pray for our country, and be mocked as a freemason. A traitor. A hypocrite- by the very hypocrites themselves. America needs to wake up. Turn to Jesus, repent and change the way we think and act. Learn to love the truth. John 14:6 (GOD’S WORD) Jesus answered him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one goes to the Father except through me”. There we have it. Jesus was replying to Thomas when he was saying this. Did you know that the Apostle Thomas died in India? He was not afraid of the truth. He loved the truth. Pray for our country. Pray that our nation will awaken, once more, just as it has done in the past. Evil forces are at the door. “For we are NOT against flesh and blood, but against principalities, and the unseen”, and what did Trump do? He note our “invisible enemy”. Right when the pandemic started. He spoke truth, just in that. Yet, they mocked him further. Yet, Trump continues to push the truth, contrary to those who say otherwise. Trump has continued to hold his rallies. Trump, is this very month, holding his second rally, and it is in Conroe, Texas.

I included a link to the website, for the city of Conroe Texas. I found it all on Google. You know what I did not find? Mention of the Trump Rally. None, whatsoever. Did you know that it is said, that Google removes references to Jesus? I have no source to cite on that, but more than one time on Facebook, I have seen content which expresses that the name “Jesus” is being removed from Google searches.

Today, I went out to the farm with my Dad. We went and mowed a path for our vehicles to drive on. I think it will be a good one. It looked like a good path. Here I included a photo of an old barn:

The barn is beyond repair. My Dad was wanting to repair it. But even he has decided the barn cannot be repaired. So, I think they will replace it.

Persecution Of the Church

All around the globe, the church is being persecuted. In Iran, in Eritrea, in the Peoples Republic of China (PRC). Even though they are being persecuted, the Christians in those countries continue to be the light of the truth. The salt.

While Iranians grow discouraged with the state of their country, our Christian brothers and sisters inside Iran share the hope available in Christ as they reach out to meet needs in the name of Jesus.

The above picture comes from an article titled “Iranian Christians Shine Light in Dark Economy” from an online publication known as iCommitToPray.com. The publication is associated with “Voice of The Martyrs”. Which has been going since the 1950s. When the leader escaped persecution in Eastern Europe. Now, churches in Eastern Europe no longer face the persecution that they once did. So, they focus on the persecution of Christians all around the world. Just a couple months ago, I read an article in the VOM magazine, (which is free) and discovered a story about a man who had been imprisoned for a long time in Sudan, for being associated WITH the church there.

Another one is an image from VOM:

ERITREA: Pray for underground church leaders in Eritrea.

Did you know, that in 2005- I went to Eritrea. So, it is implicit to me, to pray for them.

Here is another story, from the PRC. I linked the picture, to an article from Commit To Pray For China. See, how there is so much persecution, VOM has been dropping prayer requests like they are “hot”. This particular call to prayer, is for during the Winter Olympic Games in Beijing. The article made it clear, even as China presents this face of progress to the world, it is still persecuting Christians, even during the Olympic Games. So, this one is a challenge to begin praying, as the opening events of the Olympics start, in 2022. But there we have it, two continents, three countries, all with internal problems, and guess what the common denominator is between them all? They all have persecution of the Christians. Meanwhile, I cannot find the article any longer. But in Colombia, a World War II ally, there is persecution. In South America. So, that makes four countries, and three continents.

Pray for Chinese Christians

The stage is being set. Both in America, and around the world. The unseen enemy of Trump is contending with the church. Now, here is a song I found, which I thought I would share. You can listen to it on YouTube. But I am sharing it here:

https://youtu.be/O5b7tgkdFH0

I included the address. So, that you can find it, should you want to listen to it on your own. The music is Latin, but it is translated. Pay attention to it.

Ultimately, America needs to wake up, turn to Jesus, repent, and change the way it thinks and acts. Our founders, and leaders, are being mocked for openly praying for our country. THAT is the New World Order, if there is such a thing. Meanwhile, Christians continue to suffer throughout the world. In Iran, a devote Islamic country, brothers and sisters in Christ are beginning to share the light of Jesus Christ. I send my greetings.

In-N-Out

Dear Stephanie,

I checked on Max. He was digging holes in the back yard. I told him to knock it off. Then, I let him inside. For Christmas, my brother and his wife Sarah got me an “In and Out” card. I cannot wait to use that one.

Sabaton Last Stand

I just wonder how you are doing. It has been many years since I heard from you. I remember we connected online. Through something called the Rambling Irishman. You were my first online connection ever. I remember we got as far as writing, and even a few phone calls. After that we kept up on AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) for a time. The last time you e-mailed me, you had moved to Australia and gotten married, and you had a child on the way.

I remember that you, and your family lived in a town in Florida. You had a brother and a sister. I remember you had us read the book Ben-Hur. I went to the library Everett, and found an original copy. Published in 1902. You even let me chat with your Mom a couple times. How is your Mom doing?

Somehow, whenever this song plays, he song Awesome God I think of you and your family. I first heard the song by Michael W. Smith on a disc my parents got me for my birthday.

I remember you moved to Texas. It was then that first came up with the idea of meeting you. After you moved to Texas, though, you called me a stalker. I want forgiveness.

My Mom said it would be a stretch that we could meet. She said maybe a Facetime. Facetime! I have never done Facetime. So, for me, it would be a learning experience.

I still would like to meet, even after a Facetime. I wanted to meet from the beginning, in truth. But I did not know how to ask. Then, by the time I did, school had started. I guess that is what I got for procrastinating.

At times, I almost forgot you. But God would remind me of you and even your family at times. One of those times, it was 2013, in about March, right before deployment, onboard USS PRINCETON CG 59. My chain of command had me check in DEERS. They said it had not been updated. https://www.tricare.mil/DEERS.

I did not know if there was some kind of mix up, or something. But I saw “Poppy”, and thought, “Now that is a name I had not heard in a long time”, as I clicked on the link. It showed a map, with your whole family on it. It was like an update. The information went by so fast, though that there was no way to write anything down, take a screenshot, or get a picture with my phone.

After my deployment, I began attending this church called “The House of Prayer” in downtown El Cajon. One time, one of the hymns they played was “Awesome God”. Once again I thought of you and your family. That was in the early summer of 2014, when everything still seemed right with the world.

I went and got an Aspergers Diagnosis in September 2014 at the Naval Medical Center in Balboa. As soon as they diagnosed me, I thought of you. Later, I decided maybe you did not have Aspergers. But then, I found a blog of yours where you wrote about having Aspergers. You called yourself an “Aspie woman”. That was later though.

Then, in June of 2015, after my grandmother had passed away, I was on Facebook. A relative shared your Facebook. Despite all of the years, I recognized you, and went to the Facebook. There, I found a link, to a website and when I went to it I saw all these pictures. It looked like you had made it to the Middle East somewhere. I never was sure why my relative did that, but I was actually grateful. It was neat to see how you were doing. I remember once, you told me you were going to Israel. I always wondered, how did that go? I was in a part of the Middle East and I always wanted to tell you about that.

Then, one night I was driving Uber. I got into a pretty bad wreck. All of a sudden I could see the e-mails you had sent me. I could even see the pink font you used. I thought of your daughter. I was like, “Why would I even be thinking of her daughter?” Was it to ambitious of me to suddenly wonder if I could meet both you, and your daughter? What a treat that would be. Those were my thoughts as I gave them my insurance information.

About two weeks later. My Mom dragged me to Barnes and Noble, since I did not have a car. So, I told her about you wanting to write a book. I looked around for titles for a while. But gave up. Then, my Mom suggested looking you up online. So, I did. But I found two Linkedins and a Facebook. I went to the Facebook. It was Persephone.

I friended her. We connected for a little while. It was neat. I was so close to meeting you, I felt. Then, all of a sudden she says, “We are not suited to a friendship. I wish you well”. Then, she blocked me. I know she has blocked me before. But she used to chat to me at 3 AM in the morning. One time, she helped me with a school project where I got an A in that class.

I was hurt. I cried. I still remember some chats with the daughter of Demeter.

Well, with the Linkedin I began looking you up. At first I could not find anything. But then, I found an interview. A couple of blogs. I also rediscovered your Facebook. But you had not updated it since 2012. I enjoyed reading your writings. I always did. I remember you used to include scripture in your letters. like, “For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God”.

But I became confused. For some reason, my Mom was telling me that you and “The Daughter of Demeter” are one and the same. I always was confident you were two different people. Nevertheless, I found someone associated with a creation of yours, “Cake Patterns”? Last year, I e-mailed them about a pattern, and “The Daughter of Demeter” told me not to contact her associates.

At last. My opportunity had come. She could not reblock me for 48 hours. So, I thought long and hard of what to say. After arguing for a bit, about her associates, I decided I really just wanted to ask if we could meet. So, I told her about my misadventures in the Navy. She was intrigued! She threatened to block me, afterwards. So, I went ahead and asked her, “Could we meet”? Her reply was a bit shocking. She said, “No”. But she did explain that meeting would involve sex. I rated that high? Wow. I would have to tell her no though, because my body belongs to God.

Then, she explained that “Stephanie was her dead name, and me using it was like a kick in the gut”. Well, I am sorry. I did not know. The police got involved here. They mentioned you. I am sure it is nothing. It sure would be nice to hear from you again. Mr. Hogan says this chapter is not quite closed. So, I have hope that maybe one day, we will meet. When you are ready.

I would like you to meet Scott as well. Scott helped me get my job at Albertsons. He also trained me there too. Scott is full of travel ideas.

The “Daughter of Demeter” said I could contact her father. I attempted to do so. But could not find out whether he is dead or alive. I was even in the yellow pages. So, on that I ran into a dead end, I think. I also wrote him a letter, but it seemed he had moved from that address a while back. Well, if you find this, and even remember me. It sure would be nice to hear from you. For now, I will give this to the Lord. “With God, all things are possible”.

Well, it is time to play some EU III before work. I hope this finds you well.
