You may choose any two of these for a convention (fees as listed below). If you are local to Rolla, Missouri, and only need one presentation, we will present one story for donations.
The Miracle by St. Therese
This carries the story of a little girl who appeared in dreams to help Bob through his nightmares of the Vietnam War. By the grace of God as well as St. Therese, this little girl actually appeared later in Bob’s life as proof of a miracle.
Seeing Jesus on the Battlefield through the Hearts of my Fellow Soldiers
The telling of true camaraderie in the face of the possibility of death and the promises of laying down one’s own life for others, just as Jesus suffered through for all of us. It's about being able to turn tragedies into victories. It's about loving others as Jesus loved us. There are miracles in these stories as well as focus issues of dyslexia and learning disabilities which have been overcome by many. There is an incredible documentary of how the small Recon unit became the most decorated in the Battle of Howard's Hill.
How God Guided My Life
This is a story about a boy (myself) with a serious learning disability of dyslexia who had no hope of achieving anything, but it’s a great story of how God managed his life and put people in his life who kept pulling him out of the hole into achievements and success. Surviving a childhood with an abusive and alcoholic father. Finding my self-confidence and spirituality in the Marine Corps. Passion to serve others found through my own life’s traumas. God uses tragedies in our lives to make us stronger and more resilient. We develop more understanding of ourselves and more compassion for others.

Tell your story!
The Bible tells us not to store up treasures on earth but to help and love one another, thereby creating treasures in heaven. The only thing we own when we stand at judgment is our soul. It carries the story of our time on earth, and we will be judged by that story. Don’t let your story be of selfishness, greed, the material world, or not caring about your fellow man. On judgment day, our souls will stand before Jesus, either in incredible glory or dreadful shame. IT'S YOUR CHOICE.
