Hi everyone.
In my last post I talked about the Arrington family in Arizona who just lost their mother. I am glad to say that last I saw Apologia church has raised over 39,000 dollars for this family. I found out that people from the church had been bringing the Arringtons meals ever since their last baby was born (about 4 weeks ago.) The women bringing them a meal that night arrived at the house about the time the ambulance was leaving, so the women got to stay with the children as everything happened. While they were there the baby was upset so one of the women got permission to nurse the baby. Praise God for His provision for this family!
While our family did not have the chance to go to the abortion mill on Friday, I got a report from one of the men out there that it was brutal. There were not as many people as there usually are standing for Christ.
On Saturday our family got to go out and do open air evangelism in Rockland. We joined our friend Mike Kee who goes out almost every Saturday with a few other people. We were in town when they went out, and if you did not know, street evangelism is addicting, so of course we had to go out and join them. We did not know what to do with ourselves when people were honking and giving us thumbs up. We have gotten so used to people not liking our message when we are Portland that people agreeing with us was very different for us, But very encouraging!
Last night we had Bible study at our house. We only had Grandma and one other mother and son join us, but nonetheless we studied Romans 1 including the famous passage well known to Presuppositional apologists, Romans 1:18-23.
This week we have church at Harmony Bible Church here near our house. I do not know where we will be for church next Sunday since we may be in the Bangor or Bar Harbor area. I am hoping to go to Cell53 for church sometime as well to visit our friends.
For anyone who would like to join us for Bible study sometime please contact us at: Maine4Jesus@gmail.com for more information.
Prayer
Please continue to pray for the Arrington family and Apologia church as they continue to mourn the loss of Sarah Arrington, a precious wife, mother, and sister.
Pray and spread the word to others. The Supreme Court of the United States will gather together on Sunday, October 2 to watch a movie together. They will be watching "Voiceless" a christian movie on abortion. Pray that through this movie God will soften the hearts of the Supreme Court Justices so that they will judge abortion as what it really is, the mass slaughter of babies around the world! Pray also that God will show them their need of a Savior and grant them repentance and faith in Jesus Christ who died and rose again to save all those who will repent and turn to Him in faith, fully trusting in His finished work on the cross!
With love in the LORD,
Virginia.
Encouraging young women to serve the Lord in their youth and challenging Christians to reach the lost and to turn the world upside-down with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Street preachers convention!
Hi everyone.
This week God blessed our family with the opportunity to be able to go out to the abortion mill. We had a great time and got to see some people we would not have been able to see otherwise.
On Friday we had multiple street preachers including: Daddy, Mike Stockwell came from New York, Scott Smith from North Carolina, Don Cairns from Virginia, Robert Gray from New Hampshire, and Jimmy Hamilton all the way from Scotland. That was just the street preachers, we also had some of our regular group out from Redeeming Grace Fellowship and Cell53.
This week we had a variety of different comments including: "All of you should have been aborted", "You're sick", someone said I needed my brain washed, And yet another literally thumbed his nose at God. And our day was not void of hearing bad words including the F word which sadly is not unusual for us to hear. My friend Chloe was promoted to "number one" our way of saying someone gave us the middle finger. We also had the more comical questions and comments like: "Are you still stupid?" Our family was wearing matching orange shirts so someone said "You got Halloween costumes." Sometimes people come up with very dumb arguments to try to make us look stupid, sadly it just shows how absurd their arguments become when they reject God. I hope that God grants these men and women repentance, and faith in Jesus Christ our Lord.
Once again we had Officer Keller, and he was kind enough to let me take a picture of him and Chloe. By the way Officer Keller, I was just informed that it was your birthday last Sunday. Happy late birthday. I hope that as you celebrate your many years of life you realize that it is God who has
blessed you with life. Every day you live is proof of God's mercy to you.
After abortion outreach some of our group went to Redeeming Grace Fellowship to have lunch. We had a time of fellowship with Donna (who started the abortion outreach in Portland) Jimmy, Mike, Robert, Don, Scott and others. After lunch we went to the cemetery to see the grave of Edward Payson also known as "Praying Payson".
After we left the cemetery we split into groups to hand out tracts. Our family only handed out about 10 tracts, as there were not many people walking on the sidewalk we were on. Robert got to the school when the kids were leaving so he passed out more. Mike and Donna went door to door and passed out a good amount of tracts. After that we all went back to the church and sat around talking some more.
Our family is hoping to go do more open air evangelism with Jimmy Hamilton before he leaves for the UK on the 1st. Jimmy's son is a pastor at a church about 2 hours away from our house so we are hoping to meet Jimmy so that we can minister with him while he is here in the states.
Prayer
Please be praying for the group of street preachers including Mike, Robert and the others I mentioned earlier as they travel around the country preaching Jesus Christ who was crucified and rose again for all those who turn to Him in repentance and faith. Please be praying for all those involved in open air evangelism all around the world as they strive to serve Christ through preaching the word in the open Square. May we all be encouraged by their witness to take our stand and serve Christ with all we have. Jesus Christ is the only one who is able to save them from eternal damnation and it is our duty as Christians to share the saving message of Jesus Christ with the people of this world before it is to late!
With love in the LORD,
Virginia.

A little bit of everything. From preaching to movies to prayer!
Hi everyone.
I looked at the stats on my blog and am amazed at the results! Thanks to the advertising done by Cell53 and Mike Stockwell this blog now has about 1,000 views! We have the ability to see what countries the IP addresses are coming from, this blog has page views from: the United Kingdom, Ireland, South Korea, India, Canada, Mexico, France, and more! I pray that God uses it for His glory.
Since we did not go to the Abortion mill this week I can not write about that but we still did some open air evangelism.
On Saturday a church about 20 minutes away from our house was showing the new movie Origins. We asked around about the movie and from what we could figure out, which was not much, it seemed like the movie was promoting Intelligent Design, but not Biblical Creation. We headed out to the town park right next to the church where Daddy did some open air preaching from Genesis 1. The pastor's wife came out and talked to us and when asked what she believed she told us that she would probably fall under the group of "Day Age Theory".
A little later the speaker who was promoting the film personally invited us to come in and watch the movie. We were also told that there would be a Q and A after the movie so we decided to go in. One person in the film mentioned God as a possibility, but it seemed like they were more pointing to an intelligent designer than the God of the Bible. The presenter answered questions briefly, but when we went to talk afterward at his sales table, he seemed annoyed by our understanding of the subject and the attempt to direct the discussion to the Gospel.
I realized that there is one great evangelist that I really like that I have not mentioned. His name is Sye Ten Bruggencate (it is not that hard to pronounce my 4 year brother can do it). While I have not been able to meet him yet I enjoy listening to his teaching, and he is helpful in answering Daddy's questions via Facebook. I am grateful that Sye is there when we need an answer to any question about apologetics. Check out his website at proofthatGodexists.org (link is on the sidebar of this blog's home page.) I hope you are blessed by his work, and just so you know he is very humble and gives God the glory, as we all should as everything we have comes from God!
I would encourage everyone to watch, How To Answer The Fool which is a movie that Sye made with a couple of his friends. It is a great film about how to share the Gospel with those who suppress the truth in unrighteousness. I think people should also watch, Dominion, Proclaiming The Truth In The True North, Mike Stockwell gave a DVD of it to me last month at the Fellowship Conference New England and I really enjoyed watching it! It should also be fun to watch since some of the people I talk about on here are in the movie such as Mike, Robert Gray and Sye. Thank you for the movie Mike!
Next week I am hoping to get a chance to go down to Portland to see Mike and Robert while they are here in Maine. I pray that we will have a chance to do some evangelism with them. Please be praying for them as they do an evangelism tour through New England.
Please be praying for my friends from Cambodia, Jennifer and Heap and their children as they adjust to their new life with school for their 2 oldest sons and Heap as he travels to different churches to share their story. Pray also for Lina's Hope back in Cambodia as the staff try to keep everything in order while Jennifer and Heap are not there. Continue to pray for our brothers and sisters in Christ around the world as they continue to share the Gospel under the threat of persecution and even death. Yet it is worth the risk to share Jesus Christ was crucified and that He will save all who turn to Him in repentance and Faith.
with love in the LORD,
Virginia, (Virginia slim. I will never live that one down Andrew!)

A very very busy week
Hi everyone.
I am sorry that I have not written a post for awhile. The last few days have been quite busy.
On Monday our pastor came over and did not leave until late at night, then on Tuesday Daddy started school as a CNA student/apprentice.
On Wednesday we had friends over for the afternoon and that night Daddy and I were guests on Cell53 Radio. We discussed head coverings and ecclesiology. We had a great time, but people at Cell53 do not seem to know that some people sleep at night, Haha. [Shout out to Brian, Andrew and Tanya]. Nevertheless they are great people and I am honored to call them brothers and sisters. Click here to listen. (by the way I did not pick my nickname that was Andrew, but I was okay with it.)
On Thursday we went to a friends house and then came home to get things ready for abortion outreach the next day.
On Friday our family left the house before 7 am (early) and headed to Portland. We had a great time and we even got to see the famous Officer Keller! Okay maybe he is not so famous. Officer Keller, you said you would look at my blog. If you read this I still plead with you: Repent of your sins turn to Jesus Christ your King, turn to him in faith. No matter how often you scoff God, spit in his face and say that He does not exist. You know that He does exist and whether you believe it or not you will stand before Him on judgment day and you will give an account of your sins. And God being just will hold you accountable for your sins unless you turn from your sins and surrender your life to Christ. If you are still breathing it is not to late to run from your sins and run to Christ. He died and rose again to save all who will turn to Him in repentance and faith. We still love you as a human being and we still lift you up in prayer asking our Father in heaven to save you from your unrighteousness. This is what Christ has done for me, and I hope some day you come to see my King in all His beauty!
This week outside the abortion mill, we had the usual comments and concerns from passersby including: Me and my siblings are abused by being forced to do this ministry (we love going), or we are being abused by exposure to pictures of dead babies (if abortion isn't murder, then those pictures aren't dead babies); Daddy should be arrested for preaching the Gospel; and many others. As always we were shown the reality of the depravity of people without Christ and the wickedness of the world in which we live.
After abortion outreach we went out to lunch with a couple of people from our group. Rachel, Chloe, Ian, and Wesley at Fort Allen Park.
After that we went to the Ronald McDonald house in Portland to see some friends. Please be praying for their daughter Sherri as she has battled brain cancer since 2006. Her family is amazing and through all their trials they continue to praise God! We got to enjoy family Bible time with this family and some friends who also came to visit.
On Saturday Daddy had to work and we had some extended family over for supper. We then tried to get some sleep for our long car trip the next morning.
We left the house a little bit later on Sunday, we did not have to leave until 7:30 am! We then drove for about 2 hours to visit a friend's church, where at first we were welcomed. Multiple people kindly showed us around and offered child care which, while appreciated, our family does not use. We find in God's Word a pattern of families worshiping together. We don't believe age segregation is proper or helpful. Sadly, after being told by a few very insistent people that children were not allowed in the service (no exceptions) we left and went to another church where our friend is a pastor. We had a great time at this small church and were excited to be able to see our friend Matt again. Thank you Matt for praying for us every day! It is very encouraging to know that we are being lifted up to the LORD in prayer!
After church we went to Daddy's mother's house to set up a shed. This took a lot longer than the directions said it would, but we worked together. Anyway we got it done and had a little time to visit before we left.
Overall we had a good week, just a very busy week.
For prayer please continue to pray for the salvation of Officer Keller ,and all the Police officers, and "death scorts" who stand by complicit to the murder of many children who have yet to be born.
Pray for Robert Grey and Mike Stockwell as they travel to Maine next weekend to do some open air ministry. Please be praying also for NASA astronaut Jeff William as he travels back to earth from the International Space Station along with Russian cosmonauts Alexey and Oleg.
By the way, our family will not be at the Murder mill (abortion mill) on Fridays for the next 2 months because of Daddy's class times we will not be able to be out on Friday mornings. We are talking about other opportunities for ministry in the meantime. Daddy will only have Sundays and Mondays off for a while.
With love in the LORD,
Virginia.
P.S. Mark here (aka "Daddy"). Our family has a few possible plans for the future in ministry. We would appreciate prayer as we seek to discern the will of God and the need for evangelism, discipleship, and worship that is patterned after the Word of God, specifically the patterns found for ecclesiology in the New Testament. We appreciate your prayers! ~Mark

Growing in numbers (in multiple ways)
Hi everyone.
I am happy to announce the birth of Jeremiah Amir Ingalls! Son of Brian and Tabitha who are part of the abortion outreach in Portland. His full name means 'God has exalted the Prince', On Friday our group was out on the street at the murder mill (abortuary) and one of the girls got a message that Jeremiah had been born, needless to say our group was very excited and we were all clapping and celebrating the life of this newborn baby. It just goes to show how much we love babies. Meanwhile there were people on the same sidewalk who are complicit to the murder of babies in the womb.
On Friday we had, Daddy, Wesley and Andrew in the rotation of preachers this week. Robert Gray was gone on an Evangelism trip so he was not there. Brian was not there because of Jeremiah's birth.
But with the preachers we did have there, they could have preached for a lot longer than they did, we had no need for more preachers, they had it covered.
This week my great-grandmother was in town from Ohio so we spent a lot of this week with family nevertheless we were still able to do some open air ministry. On Saturday we went out to do some evangelism at the Annual Internet Cat Video Festival in the town right next to us. At this Cat Festival thing they had a 40 foot inflatable movie screen and they were going to show 85 minuets of cat videos from the internet. Funny enough they had 200-400 people there,(it was hard to guess because it was dark when we were estimating the crowd numbers).
On Sunday we decided not to do any open air ministry since we had been out the last 2 days,so we just went to church and then small group that night instead of going out on the street in between. It also gave some time to rest.
We recently found out that Daddy has been accepted into a course were he will be able to go to school and will be paid while he does it. The hospital has decided to extend his full time benefits as well which is a huge blessing! During the nine weeks of classes he will have to be in school 7 Fridays which means we will not be going out to murder mill on those days. God has blessed our group and in the last 4 years since it has started it has gone from primarily Donna and her children going out, to 20 or 30 people every week with 3 to 5 people preaching every week! Our group has gotten so big that we are considering doing shifts so that there are people out there more often. What a blessing to see so many coming to proclaim God's truth and stand for life!
We have been told that at least one woman has gone in on Friday and then again on Saturday to have a medical abortion. If there are people out there on both days then we may be able to talk them out of it on the first day, If they still do it then they will have 24 hours before they go to take the second pill.
If they realize what they have done you can take another pill which will reverse the first part of the medical abortion. The abortion is only completed after they take the second pill. Maybe with people being out there more often we will be able to talk more people out of having an abortion.
Prayer
Please be praying for my friend Angela who I have mentioned before, Last Saturday she was outside the abortuary by herself for 2 hours, there were 22 "death scorts" out there as well, later, by God's grace, she was joined by other people. Pray for her safety as she may be in physical danger when she is out there. Pray also that God would send people out to fight alongside her as she tries to save both the physical and spiritual life of these babies, their mothers and all those she meets.
Please continue to pray for the "death scorts" and Police officers in Portland. Pray that God would draw them to Himself and that they would stop trusting in the things of this world but instead repent of their sins and turn to Jesus Christ who died on the cross and rose again to save all those who would turn to Him in repentance and faith.
Please be praying for Brian, Tabitha, their daughter and baby Jeremiah as they adjust to their new life with another baby in the house.
I would encourage everyone to listen to Cell53 Radio it is a radio broadcast that Andrew, Brian and a couple of other people from the abortion outreach. click here to listen

His full name means 'God has exalted the Prince', On Friday our group was out on the street at the murder mill (abortuary) and one of the girls got a message that Jeremiah had been born, needless to say our group was very excited and we were all clapping and celebrating the life of this newborn baby. It just goes to show how much we love babies. Meanwhile there were people on the same sidewalk who are complicit to the murder of babies in the womb.
On Friday we had, Daddy, Wesley and Andrew in the rotation of preachers this week. Robert Gray was gone on an Evangelism trip so he was not there. Brian was not there because of Jeremiah's birth.
But with the preachers we did have there, they could have preached for a lot longer than they did, we had no need for more preachers, they had it covered.
This week my great-grandmother was in town from Ohio so we spent a lot of this week with family nevertheless we were still able to do some open air ministry. On Saturday we went out to do some evangelism at the Annual Internet Cat Video Festival in the town right next to us. At this Cat Festival thing they had a 40 foot inflatable movie screen and they were going to show 85 minuets of cat videos from the internet. Funny enough they had 200-400 people there,(it was hard to guess because it was dark when we were estimating the crowd numbers).
On Sunday we decided not to do any open air ministry since we had been out the last 2 days,so we just went to church and then small group that night instead of going out on the street in between. It also gave some time to rest.
We recently found out that Daddy has been accepted into a course were he will be able to go to school and will be paid while he does it. The hospital has decided to extend his full time benefits as well which is a huge blessing! During the nine weeks of classes he will have to be in school 7 Fridays which means we will not be going out to murder mill on those days. God has blessed our group and in the last 4 years since it has started it has gone from primarily Donna and her children going out, to 20 or 30 people every week with 3 to 5 people preaching every week! Our group has gotten so big that we are considering doing shifts so that there are people out there more often. What a blessing to see so many coming to proclaim God's truth and stand for life!
We have been told that at least one woman has gone in on Friday and then again on Saturday to have a medical abortion. If there are people out there on both days then we may be able to talk them out of it on the first day, If they still do it then they will have 24 hours before they go to take the second pill.
If they realize what they have done you can take another pill which will reverse the first part of the medical abortion. The abortion is only completed after they take the second pill. Maybe with people being out there more often we will be able to talk more people out of having an abortion.
Prayer
Please be praying for my friend Angela who I have mentioned before, Last Saturday she was outside the abortuary by herself for 2 hours, there were 22 "death scorts" out there as well, later, by God's grace, she was joined by other people. Pray for her safety as she may be in physical danger when she is out there. Pray also that God would send people out to fight alongside her as she tries to save both the physical and spiritual life of these babies, their mothers and all those she meets.
Please continue to pray for the "death scorts" and Police officers in Portland. Pray that God would draw them to Himself and that they would stop trusting in the things of this world but instead repent of their sins and turn to Jesus Christ who died on the cross and rose again to save all those who would turn to Him in repentance and faith.
Please be praying for Brian, Tabitha, their daughter and baby Jeremiah as they adjust to their new life with another baby in the house.
I would encourage everyone to listen to Cell53 Radio it is a radio broadcast that Andrew, Brian and a couple of other people from the abortion outreach. click here to listen

Please Pray!
Hi everyone.
Please be praying for one of the "death scorts" "M". This week it seemed like God is doing something with her heart. This Friday our group started singing Amazing Grace when we were outside the murder mill (abortuary), "M" started looking upset to me so I went over to ask her if she was "ok" she said she was. That in it's self is a big deal, for those of you who have been outside the murder mill in Portland you may know that the "death scorts" do not usually talk to us! Me getting a word out of her was probably the 2nd time a "death scort" has said anything to me. Anyway later Daddy went over and "M" was standing near the usual preaching spot so she moved to give him the spot. She then took 2 different tracts from me! One of the tracts that Abolish Human Abortion had made and the one that I wrote to give to the women going in. Please be praying that God would grant her repentance and faith and save her from her sins.
On Saturday we left our house and went to see the Him family while they were in Maine. We had a great time with the Him's, Chanthy and Sreymom. We went to the beach near their house and then it started raining so we went up to the house and we all hid in the garage. We still had a great time with them though.
After we left the Him's we left for Steuben, a town right on the ocean. One of Grandma's friends had an ocean front cottage so we spent the weekend with Grandma and my aunt and her 2 month old son. We had a lot of fun together without distractions, (there was no internet or phone at the cottage.)
On Sunday we went to church and then went out to eat with the family. Afterwards we went to see my other set of grandparents, we spent almost 3 hours at my Grandfather's house and then we went back to the cottage to spend the night.
I have also finished memorizing all 3 chapters of the book of Psalms which Andrew challenged me to memorize, chters 2,22, and ,110. Thank you Andrew for picking 2 short chapters. If anyone reading this thinks it is some great thing that I did I would encourage you to try it some time it may not be as hard as you think. And above all give God the glory, for it is not anything I did but it was the grace and mercy of God!
For prayer requests: Please continue to pray for Robert Gray and Mike Stockwell as they labor to share the gospel of Jesus Christ. Be praying for my sister in Christ, Angela, as she labors outside the murder mill in Queens, New York. I have mentioned before that it is the biggest one in the country, and they have now built a new murder mill in the same town with 18 to 23 "death scorts" Please be praying as she works to save the lives of these babies! Pray also that God would send others to minister along with her. Be in prayer for the Ingalls family who work outside the murder mill in Portland, as they welcome a new little baby into this world. Praise the LORD for his blessing of life to this Family! Pray for all the Police Officers, I ask for prayers especially for Officers Grass, Keller and Richardson who all serve in Portland. Please be praying for their Salvation!
With love in the LORD,
