1.  Made the cross and hung it on the wall of our Jesus coffee-house, His Place, on Sunset Strip in Hollywood, CA in early 1968. I started carrying the cross on short walks and sharing Jesus along the Sunset Strip. Christmas Day 1969 I left Hollywood carrying the cross following a call from Jesus to carry the cross across America arriving in Washington DC in mid-1970. In 1971 Jesus called me to carry the cross in Great Britain and Ireland...then on to the world. In 1988 Jesus said, "Give your life to carry the cross in every nation before the year 2000". Having completed the last nation, North Korea, in 1998 Jesus then said, "Now every major island group". This took ten more years to June 13, 2008. Jesus did it. Mission completed. (We are still carrying the cross in 2015).

2.  In Zanzibar, the last Island group, Jesus told me to lie down in the middle of the highway on the cross. That was one of the hardest things I've ever done. I was weeping. I did not know what was going to happen or if I was to leave it there or what. I just obeyed. As I lay there on the cross Jesus said, "The world is open for you. You are free to carry the cross and minister Jesus in all the world, wherever I lead you" June 13, 2008. To our surprise the idea for a documentary movie, later called "The Cross, the Arthur Blessitt Story" was made and distributed to the world in theaters and then on DVD. In the 'Special Edition' DVD, there is a video teaching that goes along with a paper booklet on how to share Jesus in a 9-part series. A friend and business man, Dale Schaefer, joined with us in making personal contact in every nation and island group and this DVD was sent as a free gift for them to show in their country. It took a year but this mission was completed. The cross had gone back and with it training for sharing Jesus with the lost.

3.  While carrying the cross all around the world, I've shared Jesus through secular media on TV, radio, magazines, newspapers and the internet and have thousands of news clippings in our archives. Through Christian media I've had the privilege of having the cross with me and sharing the message of Jesus and the cross into every nation. I'm often on TBN, the world's largest Christian network and now appearing as a guest on Praise the Lord. We also have a weekly program on how to share Jesus that airs on TBN worldwide, called "The Message of the Cross". I've been on numerous other world reaching networks and many of the largest internet and radio interview programs. Always with the cross and calling people to repent and receive Jesus. We have and still are proclaiming Jesus to the world.

4.  Now, a fresh mission in the way of the cross! This will be the fourth commission to be a witness in all the world. Jesus has called Denise and I to reach to every nation and island group through 'Social Media' on the Internet. We are so excited. Now just remember I have by the grace and mercy of God walked with the cross in every nation openly over 41,323 miles for 46 years and Denise has been with me and the cross in 294 nations and island groups. We know what it means to just go on for Jesus. It took a year of us learning, filming, editing and getting the production done for the Cross Museum, 7 hours & 42 minutes of the history of the crosswalk around the world. That is done and out on DVD.

About a year and a half ago we began working with Karl one of the top Internet experts to build a witness to the world on social media. We are now seeing the response to this cross witness in a glorious way. But this is just the start. Our highest post has drawn over 95,000 views and we are reaching tens of thousands every week now in one form or another. We are right now on Facebook, Google +, Twitter and YouTube and expanding. We are building a YouTube base where we will have channels for Evangelism Training, Sermons both new and favorites through the years, new short three-minute messages from the road and more. Along with the archives of hundreds of written teaching on our website we will be able to help disciple people all over the world. In a year or two Jesus will be using this to reach many people. When Jesus calls me home Denise can continue to expand this along with keeping the cross on the roads of the world.

Meeting/Churches/Materials: We are planning during the first five months of this year about two major events each month. This includes a few church meetings and outreach evangelism events. This includes a major cross walk and outreach in New Orleans with about a thousand pastors and students and a Jesus March in Dallas. So we will be staying in the streets with the cross while doing meetings. We have gospel tracts, Jesus stickers, books, DVD's, Movies in our online store. Get these supplies to help in your witness for Jesus. Be a witness.

Most of our dearest friends and faithful supporters have passed into Glory. Yet, Jesus keeps rising up new people to help be a part of this mission. Many of you have been so faithful in support with some going back for decades even to the 1960's. You are partners and one with us in the eyes of the Lord. I would like to ask that you to consider in prayer supporting the Arthur Blessitt Evangelistic Association. You can give monthly or yearly but we do need new people to join with us. Most of our supporters have become dear friends through the years. Praying for your requests, knowing about your families, rejoicing with you and weeping with you in your pains and sufferings. Thanks for caring for us and the cross mission. God will bless you richly as we join together to take the cross and the message of the cross to the world in every way open to us.
