Dear friends and supporters,

I write with an open heart. Our mission is to follow Jesus in His calling for our lives with the ultimate focus being leading the lost to be saved and follow Jesus. Also to teach and help followers to be able to share Jesus with others as disciples! That is my call and focus since I was 7 years old. I was called to preach when I was 15 years old. I have never departed from that call from Jesus for the Glory of God in the power of the Holy Spirit.

I am a sinner saved by Jesus and He is still at work in me. I remember once on a tuff lonely road carrying the cross I asked Jesus what are you doing to me. He replied "Grinding you to power, crushing every lump, so that I can blow you were I will." I said with tears flowing down my cheeks "Don't stop now".

We have a great summer of planed crosswalks, preaching and visiting old friends in Europe. Last year we saw many of our dearest friends during the cross walks in the U. S. Now I want to greet some people that stood with me 40 years ago or so in Europe and Africa. It could be our final goodbye. Denise, Sophia and I fly out in just over a week for the summer. We go in the Glory of the Lord on a mission. I have taken so many of trips overseas since 1971 with the cross. We will be God willing in the streets of cities sharing Jesus in the inter cities. We have great and glorious plans but I do not feel led to share the places we are to go and the dates and times. We would have so many Christians it would be difficult to share with the local people. We may have some large meetings but it will be natural from the response of the local people and not promotions. 

This may sound strange were so much is about crowds and numbers in modern religion. My calling has been to focus on the next person I meet and let the Holy Spirit gather the huge crowds I've preached to around the world. 

We are truly ministering Jesus to many thousands of people each week using social media on the internet. Our Facebook is going great. On our YouTube site beside the movies and messages have now started a growing list of programs Arthur Blessitt Sharing Jesus. These are teaching all done outside about how to witness and lead others to know Jesus and be saved. It is soul winning training. Denise is editing them and I'm doing the posting. We have two up now with more to come in the next week. You can subscribe and get an alert when new ones are posted. They are about thirty minutes long and can be used in home groups, Bible studies or personal evangelism training. With modern technology could even be shown on screen to the entire church. This will be like a school, college or seminary of evangelism.

Denise is well and excited doing all the editing of messages for the world. She also does the filming of new messages. She takes great care of me. Sophia has been in a Christian camp for most of a week and will enter the 6th grade this year. As for me I am great but face several challenges. My legs and knees are a challenge along with other body parts. Ha! You know I know Jesus does miracles and He has healed and delivered me many times around the world. We are leaving on this trip because it is the will of God. 

We have some wonderful friends that have given tips etc. Thank you. I have some wonderful doctors. I just need the mercy of Jesus. He can heal and or give me the strength to endure what is before me. 

I think of it this way. One person may have a super 55 Ford v8 but it has only been driven a few miles on paved roads during ones summer vacation. Its in great condition.

Another has been driving an ole 1940's Land Rover around the world through pot holes, off road, in the jungles and deserts having crashes and rollovers. 

Which one is in the best condition for driving?

The other day Denise and I went out for a crosswalk. I walked and drove up the street. In less than an hour I called her to come get me as the pain was so intense. I felt embarrassed a bit about the short distance and her needed help. She was so lovely beyond words. She said "Arthur don't even think about the miles you walked today. Just think today you completed 41,531 miles carrying the cross"!!! That extends the world record! It is a mighty witness for Jesus." So it's a matter of prospective. 

I am in the process of learning how to adjust and pace myself for the journey with the cross and preaching. The air blowing on my legs on a plane flight almost freezes them up so I rap my legs in a blanket now. I am carrying the cross one day and taking off the next day and perhaps preach or rest my body. Unless the Lord leads otherwise I'm only preaching one message on Sunday mornings or a night meeting rather than like some churches I've preached in they have two meeting on Sat. and three or more on Sunday mornings and afternoon. I've done those. I have always given 100% to Jesus in preaching or walking the cross or witnessing. I just have to adjust to some changes. That is hard for me to accept but I know Jesus is leading us to adjust so I can and will do and complete the will of God. 

I know people older than me that are still going strong with no pain or physical struggles. But they have not lived my life and been beaten, hid by cars, fallen of cliffs, walked with a heavy 12 foot cross over 82 million steps and carried over 18 billion pounds. When you've done that then lets talk. Ha. My body that has the Holy Presence of God in it has taken a real beating. 

I am 'not' complaining!!! I am the most blessed person in the world. I'm happy and have more ideas than 1,000 people could do in a lifetime. I rest in Jesus to take me through this just as He raised me up from the hospital bed two weeks before I began the crosswalk around the world and I said 'I'll die with the wind in my face, but not in this hospital bed'. I left to take the message of Jesus and the cross into every nation and major island group in the world. So don't count me out yet!!! 

Please still pray about our new blessitt.com website to be developed so I can do more things with the latest developments. It will also contain all our trips, books, teachings etc.

You pray for us and we will pray for you too. I know almost all of you have some need or strengthening by Jesus. E mail me your prayer request, I'll print it off and take them with me and carry them, to pray for them every day this summer. Keep it short so I don't have too much added weight! We will rejoice and put all our request to Jesus and His peace will fill us. Please read the 4th chapter Philippians. Glory! "I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me"

I give my life and you give yours to see more souls saved than ever before. One person is priceless. Its all for you Jesus.

We love you, pray for you. God bless you. Trust my honest letter is not too much but you that are older will understand.

Pilgrim followers of Jesus, just donkeys carrying the cross lifting up Jesus to the world.
