By the grace and mercy of God we have completed the summer trip of carrying the cross in the U.S. We met many of our friends and supporters and had glorious fellowship. I truly believe that some of the most beautiful and Christlike people in America are our supporters. Some of these people date back to 1962! Others have supported since the late 60's with others joining through the years. Some are new to us and they are a blessing and delight to meet. We were able to pray with thank and bless these who have blessed us so much.
In each area we also carried the cross. Many came to know Jesus as Savior and we met many who were already followers of Jesus. It was refreshing to walk the streets and trails carrying the cross and praying. Glorious fellowship with God.
With the surgeons report that the MRI showed me needing to have surgery on my left knee it was again to a leap into the Arms of Jesus to say no and leave to carry the cross. My report back to you is that I am still carrying the cross, walking with no pain in the knee...Jesus did it. My legs are getting stronger and it's amazing. Glory. I crossed the 41,000 mile mark of walking with the cross in June in Ada, Oklahoma. Only Jesus could bring this to pass. All Glory to God.
We did some filming for the openings and closings of our weekly TBN TV program "The Message of the Cross" at TBN studios in Nashville. Soon we will began fresh programing. Pray for that mighty witness of training millions all over the world about how to share Jesus. This is being edited now.
We have returned home here in the Denver area. Sophia will be entering the 5th grade. She is ten years old and 5 foot 3 3/4 inches tall. Denise is oh so wonderful and working hard in the office and ministry.
Denise is working with Ryan on "The Cross Museum" project. We will have about twenty hours of video footage. It is the first ever look into the historic archive of the world's longest walk and the cross memories. There is nothing like it in the world. It offers days of viewing and glory. We are taking it slowly step by step. We are working on the final edit. Will take a few more weeks I think. Then production, followed by how we make it available to the world. A number of you have joined in support of this and we say thanks!
I feel fresh and rested. Jesus is giving me so many fresh messages. I keep a pen and paper by the bed to write when Jesus wakes me up in the night with messages.
We have a powerful month of witness ahead in August. Hosting two TBN "Praise the Lord" programs worldwide from Costa Mesa and Denver. TBN will be showing two movies where I give the call to receive Jesus at the end; "The Passion of the Christ" and "The Scarlet and the Black". Also TBN will be showing the movie "The Cross, the Arthur Blessitt Story". Thousands will be saved around the world. There is a link on our website to where I'm speaking in Denver July 30th at the 6:4 National Fellowship Prayer Conference. I'll be leading a seminar for one hour 3-4pm.

If we have your phone number you can expect a call in the next weeks. I trust to speak to everyone and say thanks and have a prayer of blessing for you and your family.
Great things are before us. Pray for wisdom as to when we say 'yes' and when we say 'no'. Often someone is saying God told me thus and so for you to do. But Jesus has to tell me before I move. I want to walk in the Spirit here in the U.S. as we have around the world. That has been simply following what Jesus leads us to do. I know we are right where Jesus wants us today.
There are so many needs, calls, e mails, letters and personal contacts. It's just Denise and me and Gail two days a week that do everything. I love it. Never wanted to run a ministry but be the ministry in a very personal way with people. Was so good to meet the people on the roads this summer. Keeps one humble. Ha.
God bless you all and know we love you. Sorry we could not see everyone in person. Thanks for sending us on with the cross and the message of Jesus.
Pilgrim followers of Jesus,
Denise, Sophia and Arthur Blessitt, Luke 18:1
