Hey there boys and girls of all ages and abilities!
We are sliding in on the last day of the month for our August Access-Life three in three but if you’ve been through storms like we have here in Florida you’ll love the message that God is our only true refuge.
Plus, you get to hear about our upcoming North Texas Expo trip where it is so hot that the chickens are laying omelets there (bonus joke for free thanks to Rachel Nicholson). :-) Hope you enjoy the video and have a God blessed week!
Hey there boys and girls of all ages and abilities! As a special treat, Miss Hannah in Tennessee is going to bring you the July Access-Life 3 and 3. :-)
As usual we will have a very funny joke, relevant Bible verse and an update on ministry happenings but in this episod, you’ll also get to see a little bit more of Hannah’s heart as she shares about her experience at this year’s East Tennessee Expo.
Hope you all enjoy it and God bless everyone today in a special way. :-)
So, our 13th annual Access-Life Expo in East Tennessee was the same as previous years in many ways but different others.
As always, God’s presence permeated the atmosphere and blessed people as only He can while they enjoyed the usual boat rides, bank fishing, rockwall, variety of animals, kayaking, archery, arts and crafts, games with prizes, a hearty welcome from volunteers and a great lunch all for FREE and in the name of JESUS. :-)
However, this was the first Expo out of the 55 previous outreaches in which neither Leanne nor I were in attendance due to a family medical crisis. Yes, that’s right. God provided all that was needed with our excellent ministry intern, Hannah Spradling, key logistics volunteer Steve Kitts and past board member and administration expert Tracy Lewis along with over 150 other volunteers with a Philippians 4:13 attitude to get-r-done!
We hope you enjoy the collage above and the pictures included here showing the smiles that God put on so many faces of the 603 attendees.
If you’d like to see more pictures of this year’s event in Jefferson City, Tennessee you can always go to our ministry website East Tennessee Expo page at www.access-life.org/etnexpo.
We are so very thankful for God’s faithfulness and the fact that he’s always got us covered!
Want to hear about some God miracles and How He answers our prayers before we call? Then checkout our June Access-Life 3 in 3 video. :)
Hey there boys and girls of all ages and abilities! After much encouragement from Leanne Goddard, we’ve started doing videos of some God stories from our Access-Life outreach in Belize this past April. God is always working and does amazing things. However, we often only get to see parts and pieces of His handy work but sometimes we get the privilege of seeing the bigger picture. So this is the first in a series of Belize story videos that we pray helps you see and understand what it is like living in a third world country with a disability. We hope you enjoy Francisco’s story on our YouTube channel. :-)
What better way to honor those who have given their lives so that we can enjoy the freedoms we have in America than by a respectful tribute, Access-Life “three in three” Memorial Day video for May. We hope you are blessed by this video and enjoy the day with a gratefulness towards those who have made it possible for us to live in freedom… Including Jesus. :-)

Hey there boys and girls of all ages and abilities!
We had some great Access-Life volunteers here in Umatilla, FL this past weekend who folded and stuffed a lot of our Spring Newsletters to go in the mail.
However, we want everyone to see the great things God is doing through the ministry so here it is attached for you guys to read and share as God leads!
You can even donate directly by texting the word “give” to 352-309-1455. 
God bless and enjoy God’s goodness!
Wow, what a great time of ministry it was in Belize this year! It was a long journey to get there this year, but God was so gracious in providing all we needed to reach out, serve and share the Love and Gospel of Jesus with individuals and families living there. He opened doors, made ways and even did several miracles [especially at airports] for it all to happen. It is amazing the good things that happen when God’s people answer His call to pray, serve and give.
We are so thankful for the folks in the Dallas/Fort Worth area who took the first step of our journey by coming out to inventory our five storage units in Texas full of mobility equipment and medical supplies in March as well as those who came back out for step two to load everything into a forty-foot container to be shipped to Belize in April. This is on top of our great Hearts of Christ mission partners who secured a charity exemption for our items in between these two big steps.
Eleven days after our container weighed down with 16,940 pounds of mobility equipment and medical items set sail, Doug, Hannah, Marcus, Jim and Rhena loaded planes and headed to Belize. It was the start of step three of our mission to fit individuals and families living with disabilities to the mobility items and medical supplies that had arrived in Belize City, Belize and then were transported two hours in land to the Hearts of Christ mission in Roaring Creek, Belize.
An Access-Life team had not been to Belize since January 2020 so we had a lot of items to give out and a lot of people needing things which kept our small team [the smallest we have ever taken] busy as bees. However, God gave us all we needed as always and we ended up giving out seventy-nine wheelchairs [including over thirty power wheelchairs] as well as rolators, walkers, crutches, canes, diapers, chux and more!
God is so faithful in keeping His promises and we hope this news and the attached collage and pictures encourage you to know He is always working good and bringing more of Heaven to earth each day.
What are you thinking? Good, hopeful and wholesome things hopefully. :) That’s where God want’s our minds to be as 2 Peter 3:1 says…as well as many other verses, too.
You see what we think about and dwell on effects our words, actions and even emotions. So check out what our Access-Life “three in three” has to say about our thinking and fix your eyes on Jesus which will help you walk on the waves of life!
You can also search “wholesome” on our lifelink.blog site for more thoughts and verses on these things. :)
Hey there boys and girls of all ages and abilities! In case you missed our 2nd Annual Access-Life “Spring Fling” in Central Florida for individuals and families living with disabilities, here are some pics of the Easter smiles we were blessed to see last Saturday.
Special shout out to Mandy Klee and Grace Evangelical church in Leesburg for hosting things to the most. We’ve got some “fired-up” volunteers in the area so be on the lookout for more Central Florida Outpost activities soon. :)
