Lee Greenwood reminds us in his inspired and patriotic song, I Am Proud to Be an American, that freedom is not free. Today we remember the ultimate sacrifice that the brave men and women of America have made, and are making, to keep America free. However, despite their efforts and sacrifices, freedom is under attack here in America from within from those who hate God. Keep praying! God is faithful! He is in control, despite what other may think. His purposes can not, and will not, be thwarted. We, the men of Florida Men of Integrity, are proud to be Americans! Hallelujah!

Florida Men of Integrity exists to support the local church. By providing information, training and resources, FMI supports pastors, men’s ministry leaders and denominational leaders in their efforts to bring men into a closer relationship with Jesus Christ. Over the past three years we have found that four of the resources offered by the men of FMI have proved to be especially effective and have an eternal impact on the lives of men and their families. These resources are: Great Dads Seminars, Reaching Every Man Trainings, Unlimited Partnership Marriage Workshops and Iron Sharpens Iron Conferences. If your church would like to host Great Dads, Reaching Every Man or Unlimited Partnership Workshop, contact FMI.
If you would like to have an upcoming event for men listed in this monthly newsletter, please forward that information to the FMI Office. Thank you and God bless you!

Phil and Paul Downer Minister to Our Troops
 |
From Susy Downer (Phil’s wife):
This month kicks off Phil and Paul's amazing year of military ministry which, by God's grace, will allow them to speak to an estimated 16,000 men and women on three Marine bases and on the West Point campus of the United States Military Academy in New York. Through the prayers and partnership of many of you, Phil will be speaking to over 2000 Marine recruits in California at chapel this Sunday and approximately an equal number in another chapel setting at Parris Island Marine Base Sunday, July 27! We would be so grateful if you would be praying for the Holy Spirit to prepare these young hearts for the message that will |
change their lives. By the way, if you would like to know more about this remarkable ministry God has raised up, which now is approximately 20% of DNA's ministry, please request Phil's DVD explaining more about it.
When the children and I accompanied Phil to Parris Island four years ago, we were shocked with joy to see so many young people in that chapel pray to receive Christ, and interestingly, unknown to us for almost two years, that was where God spoke to Matthew about his call to serve our country by enlisting in Marine OCS. Our nation's military is staffed by some of the finest young people who are well-educated, well-trained, and destined to be leaders in all walks of life following their military service, which makes God's ministry to the military all the more impacting.
FMI is proud to have Phil and Paul Downer speaking at the Iron Sharpens Iron Conference in Tequesta/ West Palm Beach on March 21, 2009! For more information about Phil and Paul and DNA Ministries, call (423) 886-6362, or go to www.DNAMinistries.org.
In Memorium

I am sad to inform you of the death of a dear friend, ministry partner and representative of FMI. Bob Whitehead faithfully served in ministry with FMI for the past eight years. He was always willing, faithful and cheerful, despite his circumstances. He loved Jesus and we loved him. We'll see him later!
Please keep his family in your prayers. God bless you! |
