Since a revival in Booneville, Mississippi in the fall of 1997, our wonderful friends Gary and Rhonda Cleveland have been involved with Press-On Ministries. Gary has traveled with me on the mission field at least 18 times and been an incredible source of blessing with his ministry in the word of God. Rhonda has also been to Mexico and Bulgaria numerous times with us and been used mightily to pray for the sick. Gary is pastoring the Harvest Assembly of God in Iuka, Mississippi. They have recently adopted a beautiful little girl named Sierra Lynn. I know you'll be blessed by his insight on these trips and anything he adds to the website.
From Gary L. Cleveland
Rhonda and I have been blessed these past few years to be working together with Nick and Shirley and Press-On Ministries. God has used them to draw us closer to Himself and to challenge us as we see the commitment and drive that they both have in their service to the Lord. Through Press-On Ministries we have traveled to places that I never gave much thought to before and have met people around the world that has become dear to my heart. I have had to cross the front lines of a Mexican stand off near Zamora, Mexico trusting God for our safety and learning how to truly trust God for His protection. I have also been blessed enough to have lay overs in Paris, France and visit the Eiffel Tower and other places that many only wish that they could see in person. Though these things have affected my life in great ways, there is nothing that would change you more than being a part of the miracles that have taken place before our eyes that I have as a continual testimony to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
In Bulgaria where a woman came for prayer because doctors said that her baby that she was pregnant with was dead but she knew that she served a God of life. She gave birth to a completely healthy baby that we were able to hold the next time we were there.
There was also the time in Mexico when one of the young men that went with us began to speak in tongues and those around us began to get exited because he was speaking in the Taraskian Indian language that was native to the peoples of that region.
I have also been able to go to the Philippines as well as Mexico and Bulgaria and there is always one common miracle that happens at every place we go, and that is the miracle of salvation. The multitudes of people that get salvation through Press-On Ministries proves that this is not a ministry of words alone, but a ministry of the effectual power of the one true God.
Many have been invited to help with this outreach ministry. Many have missed out because they have not taken the time to be a part of it. The only way that you can really understand the fullness of Gods blessing that Nick and Shirley are to this world is to get involved. I guarantee that it will change your life and challenge you to be a better Christian. I do warn you though, you will never be satisfied with being a casual Christian ever again.
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. Mar 16:15
May God Bless;
