At the start of 2025 David Marshall Kealy with son Tim spent time with Ministry Partner Mercy Indonesia. Peduli means care or concern and that is the working phrase of all they do in meeting the physical and spiritual needs of all they reach across hundreds of Indonesia Islands. 

The invitation to help Pastor Paulus Wiratno included speaking at their daily Chapel sessions, visiting their Elderly Ministry, visiting Imanuel Ello the broadcaster of Dian Mandiri Radio Station, lecture for radio station staff and volunteers, dedicate a new radio station building and dedication of four fresh water tanks for the Poguwatu Village.

Ministry included my design of a campus in Nepal on a very steep terraced mountain side. In November 54 campers and 16 leaders gathered for a full week BEEP Camp at Bethany House Bible Training Center, these youth are from 15 different churches from the region, some of them traveled day-long journeys and your prayers are appreciated for each of them as they return with greater skill to share their faith in God. It was the first formal use of the new building that I designed just a few years ago. READ ON !

What is BEEP camp you ask. 
Our NEPAL Partner leads BEEP which stands for Biblical Education and Evangelism Program (BEEP) Camp is geared toward an intensive discipleship program that helps churches disciple the young generation and mobilize them to reach their friends in communities, schools, and universities. 

Also on the site we have funded the fence you see. Also the restoration of a pond and their fresh water supply from two local streams complete their ability to use the site now. 

     As I draft this BLOG our world is full of challenges on many fronts. It is refreshing to know the hope that is in the life and sacrifice of our Lord Jesus Christ. Sharon and I are blessed with dear friends and supporters, supporters that facilitate our ongoing ministry. We are blessed beyond measure; may God be praised and pleased. One day we want to hear, "well done, thou good and faithful servant!".

     Today I write to friends remembering a wedding anniversary and another responding to fresh water systems we provide to our global ministry partners. More on that at another time. Today I reflect on a Kealy Quotes from February 2001. Prayer for India trip was the heading. 

         Here goes; “Prayer is in order for safety of travel and health while traveling in the India subcontinent. David will participate in a conference for 400 pastors. His emphasis will be the use of radio as a tool to help build the church. Only 54 of the pastors have formal Bible training due to the rapid grower of the church in recent years as the Dalits people embrace the claims of the Gospel of our Savior, Jesus Christ”.

​     A ministry partner of ours in Nepal is helping a church in a Dalit community near their outreach at the Bethany House Bible Training Center. They are in drastic need of a fresh water system. Details are being developed including the design and budgeting for this important support of the Dalit population. To quote Pastor Matt Hannan, “when love is felt, the message is heard!” Jesus taught and He healed. The preaching and teaching and living out of the word of God is the focus of the ministries yet they always find in remote areas poor health resulting from inadequate fresh water. The provision of fresh water is the healing that takes place. May Jesus be praised with this two-fold outreach model being used.

Creating a training campus on a steep site seemed more than challenging. Is it possible I questioned. Building on a very steep site terraced for planting corn and grazing for large animals was what was available in Nepal by our partner ministry. First a survey of the site took place. Yes it's possible, let's proceed. Fencing of the property provided safety and defined the perimeter of the property. Then providing water was required and a pond was improved and water from two local streams filled it in due time.
A historic house made with packed mud blocks was crumbling and needed to be removed for construction to begin. Local workers are hard at work building the campus that is already being used for training, even before it is completely ready. Even in remote Nepal the good news of the saving Grace of our LORD Jesus Christ is making an impact on people of all ages. It is rewarding to be a smart; part of this outreach.

In our ministry globally we sometimes engage with Christians in countries where their very lifestyle resilience (noun: the act of springing back, rebounding, or resiling) is stretched. We do not mention the countries for the protection of those we partner with as they reach out with the saving love of God's grace. 

One current report includes; "Today millions of (restricted country) face enormous challenges including severe food insecurity, lack of basic health services, employment access to education, gender apartheid, and consequences of natural disaster, (loss of loved ones, homes and livelihood). Mental health of women inside the country has continued to diminish as women's rights and freedoms have been curtailed. This loss of rights for women includes: prohibited education past sixth grade, very minimal ability to work, and limited freedom of movement outside the home. The situation brings the darkness of hopelessness."

Pray for people who need hope while living under stressful political and oppressive regimes as God's ambassadors living nearby help them while sharing the saving love of God through the life and sacrifice of His one and only son, Jesus.

And pray for us as we encourage the national leaders we support. 

“If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me.” John 14:3

    In our daily devotional reading Bill Crowder shares AT HOME WITH JESUS in April 2024.“There’s no place like home,” says Dorothy clicking the heels of her ruby slippers. In The Wizard of Oz, that was all it took to magically transport Dorothy and Toto from Oz back to their home in Kansas.
    Unfortunately, there aren’t enough ruby slippers for everyone. Although many share Dorothy’s longing for home, finding that home - a place to belong - is sometimes easier said than done. 
    The night before the cross, Jesus assured His friends of that home, saying, “My Fathers house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you?” (John 14:2) A home where we are welcomed and loved.
    Yet we can be at home now too. We’re part of a family - God’s church, and we live in community with our brothers and sisters in Christ. Until the day Jesus takes us to the home our hearts long for, we can live in His peace and Joy. We’re always home with Him.”
  
Knowing we will be reunited with family and loved ones for eternity with God who loves us beyond measure is comforting. This love is confirmed by God sending His son Jesus to atone for our sinful nature. That is God’s plan! That plan I embrace.

Minister of Music his entire working career including years of a teaching ministry Media Excellence, he specialized on staging annual performances at Christmas, Easter and Fourth of July at churches where he served in The Inland Empire in Southern California and his teaching years helping hundreds of "younger" music leaders as he called them. He recently mentioned to me he was, "amazed they sought him out and asked questions - even though he was decades older". 

Music was his life's guiding light. He led a youth choir right out of High School for several years. We sang with brother Charles in the Gospel Tones, a men's quartet starting in High School years. He even led the Messiah with his youth choir in 1963. I still know and sing the baritone sections whenever invited to sing with choirs.

I have noted he graduated. Sister-in-law Linda Kealy responded, "Graduation to be with our Lord is right. Seeing his parents again and my and David's Chuck and Sharons (brother) Chuck and so many friends and singing in God's choir must be wonderful for Paul".

And our pastor Tate Crenshaw responded, " Sounds like God will be using him to lead a heavily chorus! What that will sound life we can only imagine!"​

May 2024 ministry included a wonderful training opportunity in Liberia, West Africa. This was a long overdue visit to the Marshall city where the VOX Radio station was installed about 19 miles East of the capital City of Monrovia on Thanksgiving Day 2017. Changes that week required us to purchase and install the station in a 40 foot shipping container where they have operated the station for six long years.
They have moved into their excellent new building (still under construction) where they enjoy a state of the art on-air studio. This past year with a new 100 foot tower with a four bay antenna their audience expanded exponentially. The next week  their signal was sent to the 200 foot tower of the international broadcasting station ELWA (Eternal Love Winning Africa) for a listening of audience of 1.7 million people. 

ONE Following four lectures, a few of the staff attended the session that used the principles of Developing and Managing Projects to establish a NewService to be hosted by the VOX 97.5 FM station for the benefit of other Christian format radio stations in Africa.

TWO On Sunday afternoon a ceremony was held honoring David & Sharon Kealy by naming the MUSIC PRODUCTION STUDIO at the newly opened station building. It will be used to encourage young people to write and record music enabling them to use their God given talents that can provide a music career. Their music will be played on the radio station and distributed throughout the area. It was an encouragement when five local pastors attended the ceremony and while standing in the sweltering room one of the pastors said, "my church will provide air conditioning for this studio!" What a wonderful gift from a local church.

THREE In November 2023 Joseph N. Boakai, Sr. was elected President of Liberia. His campaign was to encourage international development of Liberian businesses to grow the financial strength of the country. His catch phrase was for businesses to THINKING LIBERIA, LOVING LIBERIA AND BUILDING LIBERIA. This is exactly what VOX Liberia, with their radio station, and Reaching People far from God are accomplishing in the country. 

An opportunity presented itself for David and Joseph Kebbie, founder, CEO of VOX Radio to be invited to present an INTERNATIONAL FRIENDSHIP AWARD to the President. 

Actually there was a number FOUR on the schedule. During the scheduling of the meeting with the President, the founder of the BBI University, Luther Tarpeh, invited me to lecture to the Media department of the school. Overnight I meshed the four lectures that were being presented to the Vox Radio staff into a one-hour lecture. What a privilege and joy for me to spend this time with future leaders in Liberia. Every one of the lectures are presented with a Christian DNA that encourages them to Think, Love and Build Liberia to a nation that will honor God.
