name, make known His deeds among the
people... Talk ye of all His wondrous works.

Project Yellowknife is now underway...
"What is this?" you ask? The Lord has directed my heart to begin writing to different churches in the city of Yellowknife. This is the capital city of Canada's Northwest Territories province. I hope to encourage the Christians in this area by letting them know that I've been fervently praying for a move of God throughout Canada's remote Northland.
You see, ever since I was a new Christian, freshly saved and born again, the Lord placed within me a strong desire to pray for Christians in other countries. This is known in some church circles as intercessory prayer. In addition, ever since I was a child I've had an interest in geography. Even now, I would pick up a copy of National Geographic magazine and would often find myself captivated by the photos. I'd spend hours daydreaming of visiting many of these places.
I'm certain that I was born with a thing called "wanderlust." But because I am in prison, I have to use my God-given imagination to wander the globe.
Actually, I've been writing to Christians in other lands for more than twenty years, beginning with a pastor who had a prison ministry in Ghana, West Africa; he has since gone to be with the Lord. I enjoy sending letters of encouragement to fellow believers. They, in turn, often share the letters and my testimony with others. It's like being a missionary from inside a prison cell.
I want to make known the wonderful works of the Lord throughout the whole world, if I can. I hope to continue with Operation Yellowknife until I leave this earth.
