It was called "Operation Homecoming" when 31 POW's returned to the United States and to the USAF Regional Medical Center and Hospital at Wright-Patterson AFB, Dayton, Ohio. John McCain did not come to our hospital.

I have often thought that of all the places I could have been stationed in the Air Force at that particular time in our nation's history, God in His providence permitted me to be at Wright-Patterson AFB to meet and minister to 31 POW's and hear their stories first hand.

It was in my heart and mind to write a tribute to Senator John McCain who served our country as a naval aviator and after being shot down, was confined to a prison in North Vietnam for more than 5 years. Time ran out, but I have been able to find on the Internet the memorial service where John McCains body lies in state at U.S. Capitol. 

Now, I want to share with you the benediction delievered with excellence by Barry Black, Chaplain to the United States Senate, followed by a heart-felt tribute by Vice President Mike Pence, and other congressional leaders.

Arlette and Lavon Revells are exciting facilitators of the Celebrate Life Now Sunday school class at Christian Life Worship Center in Athens, GA. They will be leading this growing and learning class in a new series entitled, "The God You May Not Know." by David Jeremiah. The teaching by David Jeremiah will be shown on the large screen in our classroom. You are invited to come and join with us in this new study.

I have never been more excited and hopeful than any other time at this current season of my life. I dearly love my local church and what the Holy Spirit is doing in the lives of the people of our congregation. It is nothing less than God's gracious hand upon Christian Life Worship Center (a Pentecostal Holiness Church) in Athens, Georgia.      

God gave us a new pastor and his wife about a year ago. They are Terry and Pam Kesling. Our pastor is a great communicator who is honest, humble, intelligent, and transparent. His sermons are timely and deal with issues we all face as Christians with our families.  God has anointed him to preach and lead this congregation to new and higher dimensions of God grace and unfailing love for all people.

We are blessed to have two highly intelligent and talented leaders to serve as the facilitators for our Sunday school class, called Celebrate Life Now. Most of all, God has anointed them for this ministry, and it is evident to all.      

The Celebrate Life Now Sunday school class is a cross generational gathering of various ages of adults that meets on Sunday mornings to celebrate Jesus and study God's Holy Word, the Bible. Lavon and Arlette Revells are the teachers or facilitators. There is never a dull moment and they know how to get class members involved in the discussion of the subject material.      

If you want to experience a dynamic Sunday school class led by two dedicated facilitators and teachers you will want to be a part of our Celebrate Life Now class.      

Lavon and Arlette Revells extend a personal invitation to you to attend the Celebrate Life Now this Sunday morning at 10 o'clock.      

The class meets on the lower level of our educational wing of Christian Life Worship Center, in a classroom known as Stephanie's Place, named in loving memory of the life and legacy of Stephanie Ellen Morgan, a dedicated educator during her adult life. You may enter the classroom from the parking lot to the right of the rose garden.      

Melvine and I are members of this Sunday school class, and we invite you to join with us and many others who enjoy this Bible study class.      

The class begins at 10 a. m. at Christian Life Worship Center in Athens, GA. The church is located at 125 Kathwood Drive, one mile north of the Athens Perimeter just off US Highway 129.

Bishop Leon and Donna Stewart will celebrate their 66th wedding anniversary on Wednesday, September 5, 2018.

It is with delight and honor to announce to you this special day in the lives of our former General Superintendent of the International Pentecostal Holiness Church. 

In an email from Leon he wrote, "We have no regrets in the path God has led us since our marriage. We are still happy.

Have fun,

Leon Stewart

[Editor's comment: Leon O. Stewart assigned me to my first church that I have pastored. I had graduated from Asbury Theological Seminary in May of 1963 with the M. Div. degree. I was privileged to be the pastor of some of the finest people in the known world at the Brownville Pentecostal Holiness Church.

The Brownville Community and our church are located about six miles from Evergreen, AL, in Conecuh County, the poorest county in the State of Alabama. Leon told me that they had 66 members and that the church had great potential. My salary without any gas allowance was $35 a week, with an unfurnished parsonage, with electric power, and a propane furnace, a refrigerator, electric stove and oven, and washing machine. Melvine was able to get a job teaching in the Evergreen High School to help with what we really needed in income. The church grew and was blessed by God.

I tell people jokingly I am in the ministry for the money. I told God I would go wherever He would send me, and I would give my full time to the church. There are many stories I could tell you, but I want to focus on the 66th Wedding Anniversary of Bishop Leon and Miss Donna Stewart. Let us join together by sending anniversary cards to this outstanding couple and leaders of our church.

I know they will be pleased to hear from you.]

June 29, 1966, the 173rd Airborne Brigade experienced an incredible day engaged in combat about 40 miles southwest of Saigon. That day will live forever in the memories of every paratrooper of Alpha Company, 2/503rd Infantry Battalion. It was also a special time that went down in the annals of American history as Sergeant Charlie Morris was awarded the prestigious Medal of Honor for actions that went beyond the call of duty. Sgt. Morris bravely continued to fight on and lead his men even though he was severely wounded--some reports have him as being hit as many as thirty-three different times. Morris, also a Korean War veteran, lived through it all to serve his country until he retired from the U. S. Army years later.

This is a story as told by those who were there.

Bonded in Battle is available on Amazon.com

Colonel Jack Kelley has sent me a copy of this book. I am honored to read it, and to promote Bonded in Battle in Hugh's News & Commentary.

Colonel Jack Kelley is a friend to chaplains. When I spoke at Northwood Temple shortly after I became the Director/Endorser of IPHC Chaplains Ministries, he adopted an IPHC chaplain, and sent a monthly teaching cassette tape of John Maxwell's teaching on Leadership to all of our active duty chaplains.

Colonel Jack Kelly, in my opinion, is a candidate to be nominated for the prestigious Centurion of the Year Award given by the endorsers of the NAE Chaplains Commission. I had the opportunity to nominated two great American military heroes for that award: Lieutenant General Jerry Boykin, United States Amy, and Captain Allen B. Clark, United States Army intelligence officer and a West Point graduate, who gave both legs in battle in North Vietnam. Both men were elected by the endorsers, and I was given the honor of introducing them at the Centurion Dinner Banquets.

IPHC World Missions Ministries is glad to announce the launch of our new monthly publication, The Call.

While serving you in this capacity, I am continually humbled by the many opportunities and experiences that I am afforded as I travel.

My biggest regret is that you are not with me and afforded the opportunity of witnessing, first-hand, the missionary/ministry legacy that we have as a church.  You would be so proud. 
  
Earlier this month, I was privileged to travel to Budapest, Hungary, and Oradea, Romania.

Just a few quick observations:
• Our missionaries have done and are doing a remarkable job. While in Budapest, I visited The Awakening’s International Base. This is the base that Dave and Linda Fannin envisioned. WMM is now in the process of completing the purchase of this building. Dave and Linda’s ministry imprint is stamped all over Hungary and Romania. 

As you talk with the Bulzans, Reshetinskys, and Ms. Revesz, you sense the gratitude and love that these leaders have for the Fannins and the IPHC.

• Do not buy the line that millennials are not engaged and passionate. At EuroQuest, primarily a meeting for young adults/emerging leaders/millennials throughout Europe, I met leaders from 14 different countries that were on fire and sold out for the cause of Christ globally. Some of these leaders include: Max Barroso, Seth Nix, Krisztina Revesz [a disciple of Linda Fannin’s], Timothy Meadors, Janene Wooten, Carolyne Smith, Dreama Bryant, Allison Jones, Hannah Lafferty, Mariah Lumpkin, Morgan Wood, Justin Long, Katie Conrad, Javier Farias, Sarah Minnix, David Burgos, Donald Kumar, Pamela Lujan, Tibi Bulzan, Timotei Bulzan, Zophie Lakatos, Michael Al-Shackar, David Trujillo, and the son and daughter, Valerii and Nadezhda, of Bishop Reshetinsky in the Ukraine. 

Believe me when I tell you that I am not worried about our future!

"IF YOU LIVE GLADLY 
TO MAKE OTHERS GLAD 
IN GOD, YOUR LIFE 
WILL BE HARD, YOUR 
RISKS WILL BE HIGH, 
AND YOUR JOY WILL BE

Follow My River and Watch the Currents!

The Lord says, "This is a time you are to walk on the waters. The circumstances around you are trying to pull you down and cause a swell to come against you. However, this is your time to walk upon what would cause you to falter and fail.

"Watch the current ... for the waters are not still at this time. Watch the current ... or you will go in a direction from which you have difficulty removing yourself. Watch the current ... for if you will stay on top of the water, you will see your way to the next shore.

"My voice is on the waters. My voice called Peter out of the boat and had him stand on the water. Listen for the voice that is calling you forward in your circumstances this week. Don't submit to a flooding current that would drag you to a place you don't need to be.

"My call to you is very personal. Hear Me call your name so you can begin to gain direction. I am calling your name to show you the way. If you listen for My voice, I will pour out what you never could have imagined. Like My call to Abraham going up to sacrifice Isaac on Mount Moriah, I am calling you into an understanding and a sacrifice you've not had before. When you present this sacrifice, it will shift your supply lines properly.

"Listen carefully as I begin to tell you the one thing I would have you do this week. Don't complicate or overthink it. I will tell you one simple thing, and when you obey Me it will cause you to receive the next piece to your puzzle."

Walk the Waters and Claim What is Unclaimed

"In past seasons, I've called you to walk the land like Abraham and claim it. But this is a season that I'm calling you to walk the waters and claim what is unclaimed in the waters. Know that there are going to be new assignments to the waters at this time. I'm calling you not to just walk the borders of the water, but to literally walk the waters from the east to the west and from the north to the south. I am now calling you to speak the order into what has been unclaimed from the depths of the wells that I spoke into order. I am calling you to speak the order into the water and walk out what is not in order in the water, to bring things into My order."

Go Up and Not Under

"Follow the river you are in, and watch the currents! Don't get into currents you shouldn't be in. Don't be pulled aside and listen to every little thing that can divert you and take you in a wrong direction. You don't need to be concerned over every little strange thing that's around you. Rather, follow the river and watch the currents.

"Listen to My voice to keep you walking through the place you're in, and then come up—not under. As you come up, I will give you the new piece that is necessary for you to see clearly how I will provide in the future."

"There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death" (Proverbs 14:12, NKJV).

The first seventeen verses of Genesis 9 are a direct quotation in God’s own words giving principles for you and me and the entire human race to live by. If we want to live a life that works, overcoming the weakness that resides in all of us, we must heed these principles. If we do not want to heed these principles, we have that freedom, but we will never live a life that works as it was created to work in the beginning. It would be similar to having a new computer with the most cutting edge technology, but using it only as a typewriter. It would do the job, but it wouldn’t even come close to fulfilling its potential. If we do not heed God’s principles for our lives, you and I can exist on this planet yet not even come close to fulfilling our potential or experiencing the abundant life God intended for us.

One primary reason for the collapse of society all around us is due to indifference and outright rejection of God’s principles. Our human weaknesses have become dominant, and life just does not work. So . . . for your own good, read God’s Word and live by God’s principles and enjoy a life that works!

With Power
 
"For when we brought you the Good News, it was not only with words but also with power, for the Holy Spirit gave you full assurance that what we said was true" (1 Thessalonians 1:5, NLT).

Today's meditation:

• Words and actions empowered by the Holy Spirit will change lives. I'm available, Lord. Send me.

Pray today:

• For the students on our campus who need Jesus, for the saved to share the Gospel, for the unsaved to repent and confess Jesus as Lord, for revival among believers to lead to redemption among the lost.

Pray for the top three needs of Emmanuel College:

• To hear the Word of the Lord regarding life after debt and our vision for an expanded mission for 2018 and beyond.
• To enroll more than 1000 students in August 2019.
• To continue reducing our debt over the next five years with the purpose of becoming debt-free.

Pray for upcoming events and activities:.

• General chapel services on Tuesdays at 11 a.m. and on Wednesdays at 7 p.m. and School of Christian Ministries chapel services on Thursdays at 11 a.m.
• Vision 4 Education Celebration sponsored by Women's Ministries, October 5.
• Board of Trustees Meeting, October 5-6.
• Homecoming Weekend, October 19-21.
• Fall Preview recruiting event, November 2-4.

Today's benediction was written by the late Billy Graham. It is anointed by the Holy Spirit, the third Person of the Holy Trinity, and when I recite it in giving it to others the Holy Spirit anoints me to share these words of love, hope, and assurance. It is my sincere prayer that God will richly bless you as your read it from the ministry card that Arlette Revells has designed for me and printed 2,000 copies.

​It was our second anniversary, and my husband sent me flowers at the office. He told the florist to write "Happy Anniversary, Year Number 2" on the card.

I was thrilled with the flowers, but not so pleased about the card. It read, "Happy Anniversary. You're Number 2."

All day on Thursday I found myself singing this song, "Only Jesus Can Satisfy Your Soul." 

You may Click Here to hear the Lanny Wolfe Trio sing this beautiful song that satisfies the soul.

Here is the lyrics to this Gospel Song:

Only Jesus Can Satisfy Your Soul"
Lanny Wolfe

​Stanza 1
The world will try to satisfy that longing in your soul,
You may search the wide world over but you'll be just as before.
You'll never find true satisfaction until you've found the Lord,
For only Jesus can satisfy your soul.

CHORUS
Only Jesus can satisfy your soul
And only He can change your heart
And make you whole;
He'll give you peace you never knew
Sweet love and joy and Heaven too,
For only Jesus can satisfy your soul.

Stanza 2
If you could have the fame and fortune all the wealth you could obtain,
Yet you have not Christ within your living here would be in vain;
There'll come a time when death shall call you, riches can not help you then,
So some to Jesus for He can satisfy.
​
CHORUS
Only Jesus can satisfy your soul
And only He can change your heart
And make you whole;
He'll give you peace you never knew
Sweet love and joy and Heaven too,
For only Jesus can satisfy your soul.

Although many offices will be closed on Monday, September 3, 2018, Hugh's News will be standing by to publish the fast-breaking news stories and any other information that the editor, Hugh H. Morgan, might deem newsworthy.

It is exciting to see God working in the lives of people I meet daily in the marketplace. It is a joy and a privilege to share Jesus Christ wherever I go. The Billy Graham Blessing or Benediction is the tool God has given to me to witness to Jesus Christ to those I meet.

Yesterday, I needed to take my car, a 2010 Lincoln Continental Towncar to get it washed, vacuumed, and tires spread with Armoral. I saw the owner of Bulldog Car Wash, putting the finishing touches on a brand-new golf cart  that could carry several people. He told me the cost was $11,000. The colors were Black and Red, the colors of the University of Georgia. The owner is Daniel. I asked him if he had ever heard of Billy Graham. He said, "Yes, I know who is he is." I shared about his death a few months ago and his burial at the Billy Graham Library in Charlotte next to his wife's grave. I mentioned he was 99 years old when he died. However, if you add the 9 months he was in his mother's womb, and we believe that life begins at conception, then Billy Graham was 100 years old when he died.

I told Daniel that sometime, some months before he died, Billy Graham wrote a blessing or a benediction that I discovered in the Decision magazine.  I liked it so much that I have memorized it. May I share it with you right now. He said, "Yes." 

Daniel took off his baseball cap in reverence to this benediction and bowed his head. He loved it. I gave him my ministry card which Arlette Revells, founder, CEO, of Great Works, Inc. designed and printed for me. She has printed 2,000 ministry cards which I want to show one to you. See the card below both front and back:

Daniel read it on the card and place it in his billfold. He said, "I will cherish this blessing and I will keep it with me always."

You can do what I am doing. We are to go and share the Gospel of Jesus everywhere. I shared it with cash register young lady, and several of the workers, and a couple sitting on the porch of the administration facility.

Worried about a child headed off to school? These timeless answers from Billy Graham offer hope and guidance from the Bible.

It’s that time again. Students around the nation are returning to classrooms and campuses in pursuit of knowledge and truth.

For those who have a relationship with Jesus Christ, school may prove to be one of the biggest battle grounds for their faith. From curriculum to teachers and peers—ideals that challenge the Bible are all around, as well as countless temptations that offer enticing outlets to the stresses of school.

Whether a parent, grandparent, educator or friend—you play a vital role in helping students you know grow in their relationship with God during this stage of their lives.

These 5 answers from Billy Graham offer guidance and encouragement to share this school year and beyond.

When should I start talking to my child about God?
>> Read and share Billy Graham’s answer.

What should I do when teachers or peers attack my faith?

Jude 8-11    Michael the archangel said to the devil, "The Lord rebuke you!"

8 Likewise also these dreamers defile the flesh, reject authority, and speak evil of dignitaries. 9 Yet Michael the archangel, in contending with the devil, when he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him a reviling accusation, but said, "The Lord rebuke you!" 10 But these speak evil of whatever they do not know; and whatever they know naturally, like brute beasts, in these things they corrupt themselves. 11 Woe to them! For they have gone in the way of Cain, have run greedily in the error of Balaam for profit, and perished in the rebellion of Korah. 
NKJV  New King James Version

Jude 8-11  The Archangel Michael went to the mat with the Devil

8 This is exactly the same program of these latest infiltrators: dirty sex, rule and rulers thrown out, glory dragged in the mud. 
9 The Archangel Michael, who went to the mat with the Devil as they fought over the body of Moses, wouldn't have dared level him with a blasphemous curse, but said simply, "No you don't. God will take care of you!" 10 But these people sneer at anything they can't understand, and by doing whatever they feel like doing — living by animal instinct only — they participate in their own destruction. 11 I'm fed up with them! They've gone down Cain's road; they've been sucked into Balaam's error by greed; they're canceled out in Korah's rebellion. 
(from THE MESSAGE: The Bible in Contemporary Language © 2002 by Eugene H. Peterson. All rights reserved.)

Jude 8-13   Men who reject authority, and revile things they do not understand

8 Yet in the same way these men, also by dreaming, defile the flesh, and reject authority, and revile angelic majesties. 9 But Michael the archangel, when he disputed with the devil and argued about the body of Moses, did not dare pronounce against him a railing judgment, but said, "The Lord rebuke you!" 10 But these men revile the things which they do not understand; and the things which they know by instinct, like unreasoning animals, by these things they are destroyed. 11 Woe to them! For they have gone the way of Cain, and for pay they have rushed headlong into the error of Balaam, and perished in the rebellion of Korah. 12 These are the men who are hidden reefs in your love feasts when they feast with you without fear, caring for themselves; clouds without water, carried along by winds; autumn trees without fruit, doubly dead, uprooted; 13 wild waves of the sea, casting up their own shame like foam; wandering stars, for whom the black darkness has been reserved forever.
