Happy Holiday Weekend to all. I pray your travels and your visits will be blessed. This is a time we as a nation pause and remember our deceased love ones. Their memories will continue to live in and through us.

This is the last week of school here in Tulsa, OK. The semester has brought experiences I will cherish and utilize as the ministry progresses. Our children are such a valuable asset in our society. We must go to great lengths to protect and nurture them. As we all know the summer months present hours of non-supervised activities for some of our children. If the opportunity presents itself take time to talk or read to a child.

I will never tire of stating how America should be ashame for neglecting the quality of pay for the teachers. The bumper sticker (remember those things) I saw some time ago stated "if you can read this you should thank your teacher" remains with me to this very day.

It is my prayer that America will soon make education and the educating of our children a high priority. Since everything begins at home, I pray that parents will not neglect the care of their children...protect them! Teaching is truly is a calling and if you know God has called you to be an educator come forth. Our children need you! I am excited about the decision I have made; to continue to advocate for and instruct our future generation. It's such an honor and a privilege to touch lives that are our future. God I praise You for using me for....such a time as this.

I remain in His Grip!!!
