What talent! To think of how many lives you are touching plus using your special wonderful talent to the glory of God. Thank you ever so much for the great presentation and letting us handle your precious Bible Sticks. Everyone told me how much they enjoyed it.

What a job you did for us last Monday evening. Wow! Comments such as “Now that was really different” “How did you get so lucky” “Wish he could have had more time” and many more. Ron–it was great and we really appreciated your being with us. I have found myself talking about it in conversations as well. May God bless you in your work and your unique way of spreading the Word.

Thank you for a very interesting presentation. My wife and I were greeters Sunday and the people that attended our breakfast could not stop talking about your unique talents, you were a big hit.

Your name came up numerous times for several days after you entertained us with your beautiful wood carvings. It is just impossible for our group to believe such delicate work can be done. Thank you so much for spending time at Lakeside. We really enjoyed having you.

Thank you ever so much for the beautiful program on your hand carved “Bible Sticks”. The ladies and children are still talking about your presentation and work of art. The Lord has richly blessed you with a wonderful talent and gave you the ability to present and witness with your exquisite “Bible Sticks”.

Thank you for your informative and inspiring presentation this afternoon. So many of our club members expressed their appreciation for your unique ministry. You utilize your marvelous talents of art and mind in such splendid fashion. It seems to me that you reflect the Scripture fo 1 Peter 4:11 (NASB). “Whoever speaks, let him speak, as it were, the utterances of God; whoever serves. let him do so as by the strength which God supplies; so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belongs the glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.”

Your presence at our Merrimate Meeting this past Monday was a blessing…to see how God gave you such a unique talent to use as a gift to others in presenting “The Good News” to all ages. It should stir within us the search of using our own God-given talents to reach out to others. God bless, protect, guide and send you to continually touch many with His word.

I have had many calls from our Seniors regarding your program for Monfort Heights United Methodist Church Senior Singles Group. We may receive comments on a program but not usually calls requesting your website and very complimentary comments. Your beautifully carved sticks telling about God and Jesus seem to summarize and bring the Bible to wood with amazing detail. It speaks to your knowledge and your relationship with our Lord. Thank you for sharing yourself and your sticks with us.

What a great program on Friday!  Your energy and enthusiasm brightens the room when you enter and remains brighter after you leave.  Your talent and dedication impressed everyone.  I have known several woodcarvers but none who produced detailed work like that!

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Thank you for “carving” time out of your busy schedule to be here.  I hope you are able to “stick” with this ministry for years to come!
