I think, for the most part, humans are very cynical creatures. We focus more on the failures and the upsets and not the victories and triumphs. But that very well might be my personal view of humanity projected on everyone else. For I am a chief offender in that regard...

  • Denise Noland Thank you Andrew....😊
  • Harryette Bowen Raihl God blesses those who do not know which way to turn......and I for one am so very glad! Thank you for another reminder of His love and protection !!
  • Whitney Lohmeier It's amazing what we can do with God
  • Debra Morgan Like I say, life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react. I have found that God can really help with that 90%.
  • Jane Stratemeyer Praise Jesus. God bless you. That should be an article in the young salvationist. Good job
  • Andrew Fries Haha... Thanks. 
  • Ben Barkley This is an experience that all of them will carry with them for the rest of their lives. These are experiences that are helping them to learn about themselves, their weaknesses and where God wants to strengthen each one of them. I lived in tents and on dirt for years serving the Lord and I remember going through the same kind of feelings, but 25 years later, I woud never say that I regretted going through all of that.
  • Ben Barkley .....and kudos to you for not intervening! That must have been tough not to do!
  • Andrew Fries Thanks Ben. It was very difficult.
  • Stacie Mcphee Wow could not read that without shedding a few tears. My daughter Katie jo and all the team is amazing. Thank you Andrew for all you do.
  • Martha Sheppard Notes like this are what allow us to promote Revolution Hawaii with our Advisory Board and our soldiers. Too often, people make jokes like "oh, suffering for jesus in Hawaii. Must be rough." Because of "reports" like this, it allows us to emphasize that our need for God becomes apparent no matter where we are . . .
  • Martha Sheppard Thanks so much . . .
  • Cheryl Verbout Fuqua Thank you for keeping us informed on the team! May God go before all of you and continue to give you strength 
  • Andrew Fries You are all very welcome. Martha and Stacie, your daughters are blessings to have on the team. Katie Jo was, by far, the most excited to go out to that community.

  • Stacie Mcphee Really Andrew? That makes a mama feel a little more at ease knowing she is embracing the whole experience with open arms. God is doing so many amazing things through her.

  • Andrew Fries She was giddy! And Ben, CB went out with a bit of a cold but when we checked up on him he seemed to be doing better. The team had spent some of their food money on cold medicine for him and one of the other girls who was feeling poorly. He was in very good spirits. He was the team member who asked if I had any prayer requests.

  • Ben Barkley Andrew, I can only say it gives me great peace and comfort to know that those young men and women are in very good hands with you as their leader. I am so happy that you keep us all updated. I had this notion in my head that Caleb was going over there and we basically weren't going to be hearing much about anything until his year stint was done. God bless you, strengthen you and continue to give you wisdom and guidance!
  • Andrew Fries I'm definitely not alone on the leadership team. There are actually six of us! I'm just the unofficially designated social media outreach coordinator.

  • Ben Barkley I don't know who the other 5 are unless Rob is one of them, not that I know him personally but Caleb was telling me about him when he met him in CA for that thing they did in the Redwood forest. Amazing how much beautiful property the SA owns!
  • Ben Barkley God bless all 6 of you!
  • Kathy Martin Barkley Andrew, thank you so much for sharing your heart! you are a true Leader in the Army of God, as well as the others and we pray that God will continue to pour out His Spirit upon all of you! Jesus never said this walk would be easy, but He did say we would never be alone, Hebrews 13:5
    21st Century King James Version (KJ21)
    5 Let your manner of living be without covetousness, and be content with such things as ye have. For He hath said, “I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee”; As a Parent, there have been many occasions where I wanted to so badly to step in and try to fix things for my Son that he was going through and knew I could not. I knew that God was at work and that he had to learn these life lessons on his own, but I sure prayed harder and interceded more, and just kept God's promises before me & declaring that my Son's steps are ordered by God! I am sure all of the Rev Hi's team parents are doing the same, praying hard & trusting God for sure  Lord Jesus we pray that you will continue to lead and guide the Leadership of Rev Hi & the AMAZING 14 young men & woman on this team. We thank you that you have charged your Angels to watch over them in your Holy Name!
  • Kathy Martin Barkley Praying for all of the Leadership strongly & the Team!
  • Marcia McQuade How awesome to see God working right before your eyes! I'm feeling so blessed by your post. Thank you for sharing this with all, very encouraging and wondering how my Melissa did. Such a life changing experience for you all  Prayers to you as leaders and Andrew, we miss you so much
  • Ronda Gilger Praying that God will continue to give you eyes that see Him. ..... wonderful.
