On the evening of September 27th, 2025, we were blessed to be a part of the first annual South Florida Christian Leadership Network Banquet, headed by Frank Marciano of Sonlight Ministries. The event was held at the Palm Beach Hilton in West Palm Beach, Florida.
Prayer Stations was offered a networking table to connect with other ministries and showcase our different Prayer Stations. We had the opportunity to pray for quite a few people and made some excellent connections prior to the dinner.
The evening began with an amazing worship time, led by Robert and Palm Varnadore, which started with giving the Pledge of Allegiance, and included singing the National Anthem. We also held a special moment of silence to give honor to the recent passing of Charlie Kirk.
Pastor Todd Mozingo of Revive Church was the opening speaker and was followed by several other pastors and missionaries throughout the dinner. You could feel God’s presence throughout the event. I truly believe that the horrific shooting last week of Charlie Kirk has kickstarted a revival that is bringing people to a self assessment and realization of their need for God in a way that has not been seen for many years.
It was great to connect with the many familiar faces from other events, like Pray South Florida and Miracle on the Water.
We also provided an 11ft Prayer Station Flag to be raffled off and it was won by none other than Pastor Al Pigozzi from Plant a Seed Ministries in Fort Pierce, Florida.
We are definitely looking forward to next year’s event, and connecting with new people to bring the saving message of Jesus Christ out to the masses.

2 Corinthians 5:17 - Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.
I am sure most of you would agree that this has been a very irregular, and emotional week. Those of us that are followers of Jesus watched in horror as Charlie Kirk's life was taken by someone that clearly had been influenced by evil. We all have witnessed an extremely wide spectrum of responses, and that is what I wanted to touch on here.
If you have spent any time online, I am sure you have seen the completely immoral and evil responses by those who clearly do not have identity in Christ. Teachers losing their jobs, people getting taken out of the military, the list is growing long of people getting their due for posting inappropriate videos and posts, celebrating in one's murder.
This morning as I watched yet another video of someone that posted a quick celebration, wearing a very colorful outfit, colored hair, colored lashes, etc. It just hit me… where is she getting her identity from?
You may immediately be throwing out your own answer… one of the many different "communities" that wear similar attire, and each of these groups definitely could be contributing factors. But the one clearly missing factor is her having an identity in Christ.
I am sure we would all agree that if you are not a follower of Jesus, then you are "left" to try and join a group that will take you in. Everyone wants to feel connected, wanted, to be a part of something. The problem comes when you are looking to the world for your identity.
There are many places in the Bible that Believers look to gain understanding in what it means to be in relationship and identity with Jesus and be one of his followers.
For instance, Galatians 5:22-23 says, "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
When you see these individuals posting their videos and tweets, do you get any sense they are following the fruits of the Spirit? I would then ask, what are we doing to reach these people for Jesus?
One answer is the Prayer Station ministry, which offers the opportunity to reach people in your community with free prayer. Through the course of conversation and prayer, it opens the door for people to potentially hear the Good News of Jesus Christ for the first time, or in a way that they have never heard it before.
If this is the first time you are hearing about this ministry, please check it out at prayerstations.org. Thousands of churches, ministries and individuals have purchased their own Prayer Station so they can go out and reach people for Jesus Christ in their own communities. It is an amazing, successful ministry and there are thousands upon thousands of people that have come into new relationship with Him as a direct result of people simply obeying His command to "Go out and preach the Gospel".
If you have an interest in getting a Prayer Station for your community, feel free to reach out directly to me (ron@prayerstations.org) and I will be happy to talk to you.
Lets all get out and bring people back to relationship with Jesus!

Seven Last Words of Jesus Christ “Take Jesus to The Street Ministry”

Over the past three years on Good Friday, St. John Memorial Baptist Church has taken the "Seven Last Words of Christ" out into the streets of Philadelphia.
This year, St. John will mobilize seven churches and seven Prayer Stations at each of the seven locations, where the "Seven Last Words" will be preached. Our goal is to permanently incorporate “Take Jesus to The Streets" (a Street Ministry of St. John Memorial Baptist Church) and Prayer Stations every week during the summer.

On October 7th, Ron Setran and I boarded our flight to Baltimore, MD to begin our two week journey through Pennsylvania and Virginia, just one day before Hurricane Milton was to hit Florida. We checked with all the weather forecast information available at the time and saw that the southeastern part of Florida where our ministry and families are located would be out of the path of the storm. After praying with our family and receiving their blessing we embarked on our two week ministry journey. What we did not take into consideration were the tornadoes that were to accompany the hurricane. Hurricane Milton hurled 46 tornadoes at Florida. One of those tornadoes came very close to the Prayer Station house in Jupiter Farms hitting less than 1 mile away and another in Stuart coming as close as one and a half blocks away from the home of Dan & Rebecca Burd, our son-in-law, daughter and two sons. The Lord spared them all, but it was very scary for our families.
After arriving in Baltimore we drove to Harrisburg Pennsylvania to attend a gathering of some 350 pastors from the Southern Baptist Convention. Prayer Stations had a booth at the conference that was strategically located at the door of the main meeting room. We had opportunity to talk with many of the Pastors about the Prayer Station ministry and gave away hundreds of our recently published book “Five Little Words”. I was honored to be asked to close the convention in prayer.
Ron and I then drove down to Winchester Virginia To visit our dear colleague Bill Blatz, who had just moved there from Washington State the week before. It was so good to spend quality time with Bill and his family.
We then spent six days in Philadelphia with our dear friends and colleagues Doug & Deb Tunney, who direct the YWAM work in Philadelphia. Two years before, I challenged a group of pastors and ministry leaders in Philadelphia with Prayer Stations. God spoke to Doug and gave him a vision to see 100 churches in Philadelphia receive and use Prayer Stations. We were able to thank God that now some 73 different churches were using this powerful tool in evangelism in their neighborhoods.
During our time in Philadelphia we:
· Met with strategic influential pastors of the city
· Participated in Prayer Station outreaches in the city
· Visited a key Prayer Station donor for the Philadelphia project
· Preached in two different churches in the city
· Spoke at a YWAM School of Evangelism in an Indian Church.
· Encouraged the YWAM Philadelphia staff
On Tuesday, October 15th Doug, Ron and I met with a Christian Company in Southeastern Pennsylvania that has invested in helping us provide Prayer Stations to the churches of Philadelphia to give them a report on how the ministry was progressing. They were very happy to receive our report and shared their affirmations on the project. We then visited YWAM Lancaster to deliver a Prayer Station and also meet up with Alex Miller, one of our former students and staff from YWAM NY who was teaching at the Lancaster Pennsylvania YWAM base.
On Wednesday, October 16th we drove to South Jersey to visit with Tammy, Don & Cookie Adams. Tammy serves on our staff and Don is the father of David Adams, the man who was my assistant director for many years before his untimely passing, and his sister Cookie. We then drove up to Staten Island to visit with my cousins who we had not seen in about 3 years.
On Thursday, October 17th we visited with our friends Bob & Helen Miller who oversee Blue Mountain Retreat in New Ringgold Pennsylvania, where Rozanne and I began one of the first YWAM Discipleship Training Schools in 1975. We also visited our dear friend & first ever supporter, Dee Beurrier, on the eve of her 93rd birthday.
From Friday, October 18th through the 20th, Ron and I were part of the Smithtown Community Church annual Missions Conference. We had opportunity to share with this congregation that has supported our ministry for over 30 years. We stayed with our dear friends Harold & Nancy Hills and their precious daughter Kristin.
We returned home on Monday, October 21st to our family and celebrated with dinner together.
It was a powerful two weeks of ministry and a little exhausting for this 78-year-old but well worth the time and effort!
Nick Savoca and I headed up to Virginia and Pennsylvania for a two week ministry trip. It has only been a few days and we have already had an amazing time. It actually started on the plane, when someone ended up in the seat between Nick and I. His name is Ray and we had an amazing conversation. He shared with me about his having a heart attack and how that has affected his life. He currently goes to church and I was able to share with him the calling God has on his life to be a light to his family and those around him. Please keep Ray in prayer.
Our first stop was Harrisburg Virginia, where we met up with Pastor Holder from St. John Memorial Baptist Church. He is one of the main players for the Southern Baptist Convention, and they were having a large event with over 300 pastors in attendance. As you can see by the images, they had setup a very effective Prayer Station area where the pastors came in and out of the main sessions. We were able to connect with many of the pastors, and some of them actually came to the Prayer Station for prayer as well. Prayer Changes Things. Nick was actually asked to close out the event in prayer. What a privilege and opportunity.
We then met drove to Winchester VA to meet with one of our board members, Bill Blatz. It was great to connect with him again, as well as his family.
From there we drove to YWAM Philadelphia, where we are to spend most of our time. We did Prayer Station ministry right in front of City Hall in downtown Philadelphia. Both Nick and I prayed for quite a few people, some of whom need physical healing, and some that needed a real answer from God.
I will continue to post updates as they happen. Tomorrow I am going to be preaching at St. John Memorial Baptist Church, and hopefully in the next couple of days we will be meeting up with Alex Miller, one of the longtime YWAM Staff we had up in New York.
This past Sunday I was honored to speak at Pastor Nathaniel Holder's church, St. John Memorial Baptist Church in Philadelphia, PA. Pastor Holder has become a dear friend and a strong evangelist for the Prayer Station ministry. Pastor Holder and his church are actively reaching people for Jesus throughout Philadelphia using their Prayer Stations and the five little words that have a dynamic impact on lives... May I Pray For You?
