Special prayer request for UFC Alvin "Goozie" Hines for June 28th

 Highlights of a Gospel Story

by Yankee Arnold 

 In 1969, I preached some evangelistic meetings in Northern Minnesota in a little town of Dora Lake. Many trusted the Lord because of those meetings, but there were a few that stood out. Dan, Chan, and Rodney saw that Dennis and Ronnie Hines came to know the Lord. Ronnie (wearing the hat) had a grand-son, "Goozie" Hines that trusted the Lord as a child when he saw Danny Adams use the wallet illustration. I guess that makes him my grandson in the Lord.

 

 Ronnie has seen to it that all his family has come to know the Lord. Ronnie and his wife, Shirley, returned this week from Arizona to undergo treatments for cancer. Please pray for him. 

 

David's mighty men had to hone their skills before battle, just like fighting the lion and the bear before he stood before Goliath.

  

2Sa 23:8  These be the names of the mighty men whom David had: The Tachmonite that sat in the seat, chief among the captains; the same was Adino the Eznite: he lift up his spear against eight hundred, whom he slew at one time. 

2Sa 23:12  But he stood in the midst of the ground, and defended it, and slew the Philistines: and the LORD wrought a great victory. 

 1Ch 11:22  Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done many acts; he slew two lionlike men of Moab: also he went down and slew a lion in a pit in a snowy day. 

 

Even men today greatly desire to demonstrate their skills and abilities by vigorously challenging an equal opponent to compete with strict limitations.  

"Goozie" is one of them. The first picture shows he is 3-0. This picture below he is 8-0. 

 

Goozie attends the Grace Gospel Church  in  Taconite, MN  where     Lance Edminster is Pastor. I just had the privilege of preaching there on May 25th thru 29th.  

 

       David had: The Tachmonite and Lance has the Taconite.

 

 Col 3:17  And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him. 

 Col 3:23  And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; 

Gooz has just been notified that he has been invited to fight in the world's greatest fighting arena, the UFC June 28th.  Of course, I would love for him to win, but I would like for him to honor the Lord whether he wins or loses. I would also request that he would have no sustainable injuries.

In talking with Lance today, I was glad to know that besides having prayer with him, he talked to him about honoring the Lord. Would you pray also? SHARE!

Yankee's Schedule and Ministry Update with Pictures

 JUNE 1st, 2025

Bemidji Baptist Church with Pastor Jim Mucerino and his wife, Robin, has always been a blessing. We get full RV hook-up right at the church and they willingly run us anywhere we want to go. 

On Tuesday, I was honored to speak to the 50 and older crowd. Jim always makes sure we have one day for fishing and one day for a round of golf.

JUNE 8th, 2025 

Eden Bible Church in Beulah, Michigan had us a beautiful             65th anniversary party after the morning service. How is Betty doing after having a heart attack in Kansas City last year and two strokes since January of this year? 

She continually gets a little REST and RELAXATION when stop at some RV Parks. Thanks for your intercession for her healing.  

 By the way, Eden Bible Church is looking for a good pastor.

 JUNE 13th and 15th 

GREAT FATHER'S DAY SERVICE

Betty and I have been blessed many times to minister at the Dayspring Baptist Church and Schools in Pewaukee, WI. with Pastor Dan Reehoff and his wife Aimee.

On Dan's 57th birthday (Saturday) his wife joined him on a 20 mile hike. I have known Dan for over 30 years. I have watched him grow as a spiritual man, husband, father, and pastor.

 

I spoke to a great group on Friday night's Simple Steps and was asked to share Sunday evening on how to cast the net and draw the net on soul-winning.
