Dear Friends,

We have missed communicating with you. Our protective software prevented our Live Updates which allowed a virus to corrupt our Outlook and Word. I had to erase the hard drive three times before every trace disappeared. That required buying a CDRW, learning how to use it, many tech calls, and more than a few tears. Time to recite I Thessalonians 5:18!

We hope you received our brochure in July and have visited our new website(www.DNAministries.org). If not, visit the guestbook page and sign up for the brochure or a video of Phil's conference speaking. It is such a blessing to finally have all of our information gathered in one place. That was my summer project! Joshua and I are now learning how we can keep it updated. Please be patient with us!

The Lord is blessing so greatly. A few highlights: Phil is in the midst of an incredible schedule of ten men's conferences this fall. I've attached his fall calendar which doesn't include many of his mid-week activities, but gives you an idea of the big events. We would greatly appreciate your praying for these retreats. Most are Eternal Impact weekends where Phil gets very honest with men about their relationship with the Lord, with their wives and children, and reaching others - all through the filter of discipleship. We are receiving many reports of men's hearts being turned back to the Lord and their family, thus giving them a fresh platform for reaching out to their peers.

Phil's time in the maximum security prison in Montana was unbelievable. 60 prisoners came to hear his testimony and 35 of them prayed to receive Christ! Then he spoke on discipleship and 45 of them came forward and knelt and asked God for at least one man to disciple in the next year. The chaplain who invited him said, "Phil, tonight you had some of the meanest men in Montana on their knees!" Phil said that after about ten minutes he forgot he wasn't in a regular businessmen's meeting. There, but for the grace of God, go we.

On 9/11 Phil did a CBMC outreach in Raleigh with a full color guard and

patriotic perspective. 70 out of 150 prayed! The next weekend Phil did an Eternal Impact retreat at a Baptist church in Atlanta and 15 of the 103 men prayed to receive Christ on Friday night, one of them being a Muslim whose wife (a former Jehovah's Witness) came to Christ a year ago. At the close of the four-session retreat, the entire room full of men came forward and knelt in response to Phil's challenge and prayed with him asking God for one man to disciple this next year. Our friend, Ted King, called me after the conference and said how life-changing it was for so many men. He said it took the pastor to men, a minute or two to regain his composure after the altar call, before he could do the closing prayer. He was overcome with the prospect of "his men" getting serious about passing on to others, the spiritual truths that had been entrusted to them.

We are so grateful for your love, your prayers, your support, and your

common vision. Isn't it a privilege to be in the service of the King!

Sincerely in Christ,

Susy
