Awesome Call from canada!

           Some exciting news for the expansion of Skateboard product for the Ministry. Its been a couple weeks since I received the call from Canada, but its something that has tremendously blessed me. Putting all the pieces together with God's direction has taken faith on my part to just act on what i believe the Lord is telling me to do. So when I pray that I need better decks for the Outreach clinics, its my responsibility to look for them.
           So a few months back, i sent out a few letters to Skateboard companies, hoping to receive a little support. As the weeks unfolded from that point, I was very blessed to get some envelopes of stickers which I sincerely appreciated. My last sticker pack came from DADDIES board shop, so another shout out thank you to them!
           But I still was searching for some Solid Hard Rock Maple decks. Well one night after a little xbox gaming with my wife, I was a little restless after playing Borderlands with her, so I started another search for Skateboard Deck Manufacturers in Canada, and as it turns out, one company has a distribution warehouse center in Southern California. So I e-mailed them a request to purchase some decks, which on my wavelength was a long-shot for a response. Thankfully though, I've learned to trust the Lord and just do my best, because i know anything is possible with his blessing on it.
            So to my extraordinary surprise, I was totally shocked to get a call from Canada the next day, asking about my Ministry and getting an invitation to purchase product. Of course i went to the Distribution center which was full of racks of Longboard decks, and made a purchase of over 20 decks at a price which i could afford, thanks to my Dad & Mom who are highly supportive.
            After a week of testing the decks, I'm now attached to a new top mount design with micro drops that is accelerating my fun and ability. Going through the progression of all the deck designs, is an aspect of the ministry that is intended to bless those who I give Clinics to. So another major shout out to the Lord, for answering my prayers and touching the hearts of those in Canada to help me! Its also a privilege for me, to keep that Company in my prayers, including those who work there. Thank you to all those involved in blessing this ministry!
            God's timing is absolutely perfect, in that I needed a top mount deck i liked, in order to give a clearer picture on deck progression for the Clinics I'm preparing to do. Living with the awareness of God's power in my life, is truly humbling, and encourages me to just keep doing my best. And may the good Lord bless all who cross my path, with knowledge/ wisdom/ and faith in the Word of Truth (Holy Bible) to a richer life in the presence and fellowship of King of Kings/ Jesus Christ, by the grace of God's love for us through his Son!

Jet Skateboards sends a Grip of Stickers.

        A heartfelt thanks to Jet Skateboards for their generosity in sending me an envelope full of stickers. Their web servers are currently being updated, otherwise I would provide a link to their online store. The cost of stickers these days is through the roof at the local stores. So when I saw the variety and cool design on what they sent me for the ministry, it was definitely a boost for my spirit. When I originally sent out a request for support to them, I was thinking it was a long-shot for a response, since I had never had prior contact. As it turns out they were totally cool on sending me some love.
         Raising inventory for the outreach longboard ministry has been a journey this year, but I'm committed to this project by God's strength, no matter how long it takes. And every time I'm able to get a little closer to launching this endeavor, I find great satisfaction. Stickers might not seem like such a big deal, however they color the blank blem boards I buy, to raise money for the financial end of things. And these wood sleds look 10 times better with legitimate stickers that are cool.
         In the Bible there is this Scripture that says; Philippians 4:6-8 New Living Translation (NLT)
6 Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. 7 Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. This is one of many Scriptures from God that helps me to continue to move forward with prayer in whatever I'm able to do, and not to worry about it. Contacting Jet Skateboards was done through my faith in Jesus, knowing that if it was meant to be positive it would happen.
       I read about Jet Skateboards in Concrete Wave, when they were talking about their Trucks and I liked what they represented, which was Skaters who design product for skaters. And of course their product was something I'll be looking for down the road, when I have cash in hand. Then a short time later I was blessed with buying a blem Jet deck at Muir Skate, which I really liked. So when I asked God for some extra support, Jet Skateboards was on my heart to contact. Never sure on how things are going to turn out, but rather than worry about it, I just sent a letter, that was responded by them with kindness. So big shout out to Jet Skateboards, and thank you Lord for directing me to them and may you bless them with protection/ prosperity/ and most importantly fellowship with you!

    Preacher/ Michel Landegent

    This ministry is the culmination of a journey that started 30 years ago. At the age of 26, I had the crazy desire to start a youth ministry in Sacramento CA.
    As God would have it, my time had not arrived, and the Christian bmx camp nose dived into the dust. Looking back at all the lessons and tests that I needed to pass, in order to get to this point in my life, is truly amazing. As I continue to follow God's guidance, I will document the unfolding of this ministry as it happens.
