I enjoyed the newsletter, especially the article honoring Arthur Blessitt's life. I had never heard of him, until you mentioned his name on the day he went to be with Jesus. I had the privilege of seeing his life's misson on TBN. They had followed and filmed him on many of his walks with the cross. I was truly blessed by seeing his life on film. If anyone needs a reason to follow Christ, they need to watch, Arthur Blessitt, who was and will always be, known as the missionary that carried the cross. He carried it so far that he is in the Guiness World Book of records. The way he witnessed to others about Christ was so amazing. Nothing stopped him, war, hunger, nor, heat or cold. I wish I could have met him. Someday, after I see and talk to Jesus, I'll look forward to talk to Arthur Blessitt.

Thank you, Virginia. Yes, Arthur Blessitt made a profound impact on so many people.

I love this quote of Arthur's that my friend, Kie Bowman shared... “Many people have dreams and visions of doing mighty things for God and making an impact in the world. That was my prayer also. Then Jesus said, ‘Lay it all down, and let your vision be no bigger than the next person you meet.’” Arthur Blessitt

In my opinion, you are a lot like Arthur Blessitt. You have shared about wittnessing to strangers, by talking about the TCC coin and what it means, and many in many more ways. You may have not carried a literal cross, but, wherever you have went, you have shared the cross and the love of Jesus every where. The cross in your heart is also visible. It is stained with the blood of our Savior. Thankful for Arthur Blessitt and his records, but both of your names are written in the Lambs Book of life.
