           Sandra Day O'Connor said, "We don't accomplish anything in this world alone...and whatever happens is the result of the whole tapestry of one's life and all the weavings of individual threads from one to another that creates something." 

          I give God all the glory for www.traintracts.com and I thank Him for giving me the grace, the strength, the wisdom, the perseverance, the anointing, and everything else to create the train tracts and this website for His glory.    From April 2002 when I had the vision, of the ocean with the lost waiting on the shore, until now there have been so many people, or many individual threads, that have impacted my life to help me fulfill God�s dream to motivate and inspire Christians to start witnessing through creating  www.traintracts.com.  I thank them all so much.   This website started out as the book:    I Want to Witness, But What Do I Say?   It was not until August 2007 that God told me to re-format the whole book or all the object evangelism icebreakers into train tracts.  I was going to publish the book, but then God prompted me to turn it all into train tracts and after that He told me to create this website.  I may still publish the book, but the following people were there for me or inspired me, motivated me, encouraged me in some way and thus, helped me get me get www.traintracts.com up and going for God's glory.  And I thank them all.  You will have a part in the harvest!

First of all, thank you Jayne Bowman for being my friend and for walking through the wilderness and over so many obstacles with me.  (She is my best friend that I met when we both went to Jamaica on a missions trip in 2002).   We are both  ministers and we encourage each other in our ministries and make sure that we take time out to just have fun!)   Jayne, you are such a treasure.  You are such a gift to me.  I am believing God with you for the money and the land for your ministry, Real Soulutions, to rise up to a new level in healing people�s lives.  See www.real-soulutions.com

Thank you Kellye Gray and Saundra Bixler for being my friends and for encouraging me.  Saundra, you are such a comfort and such an inspiring encouragement to me.  Thanks for being there for me and for everything you have done for me. Thank you Angie Alderman for your encouragement.   Thank you Carmen Brown  for letting me be a part of singing praise and worship at the Cancer Treatment Center.

Thank you Pastor Joel Osteen for reading over my manuscript and encouraging me and praying for me.  It really meant a lot to me when I met you in Tulsa when I was at such a low point in May 2007.  Yes, I am trusting in God and purposefully living My Best Life Now.   See Joel Osteen testimony and picture 

Thank you Joyce Meyer for being my spiritual Mom.  My real mom was named �Joyce� too, but Joyce H. Mulford, died of bone cancer Jan. 5, 1994 when I was only 24 years old.  God has used you countless times �to mother me� and grow me up in Christ.  I have listened to over 25 tape series and have read 30 of your books!  I watch you everyday.  If if were not for you and your awesome teachings, I don't think that I would have much character at all!   I thank you and your husband Dave for obeying God and for helping me to become all that God has called me to be for His glory.  May the fruit from this website be credited to your heavenly account as well.  www.joycemeyer.org

         Thank you Rev. Craig Hagin for your anointed teaching at Healing School in April 2005 that brought resurrection hope to my soul as you �read my mail� after being so brokenhearted.  God used you to pour encouragement and faith into my spirit that I needed to make it through my trials.   Thank you Pastors Kenneth and Lynette Hagin, Jr. and the associate pastors at RHEMA Bible Church for all the anointed �faith-filled� messages that encouraged me, like Pastor Hagin�s messages:  �I shall not be defeated and I will not quit.�  Those tenacious messages encouraged me to keep writing this book/website and to �have faith� for it to be published for His glory.  Thank you Pastor Gary Crowl, Pastors Bill & Lorena Ray; Pastor Marvin Yoder, Pastors Rick & Cindy Fern, and Pastors Jay and Tammy Hoskins.  www.rhema.org   Thank you Pastor Jay for reading the manuscript and for encouraging me. Thank You Pastor Bill Ray for your encouragement and your faith-filled uplifting messages.  It really means a lot to me because back in 2005 (as you know) I was in tears from being so discouraged, but look what the Lord has done!   I tell you the truth, if it were not for you all, this book/website would not have come forth.  For information on how you can attend the best Bible School in the world:  www.rbtc.org

  Also I wanted to thank all the people that I gave a �prayer bookmark� to back in 2005 who actually took the time to pray for me.  There are too many people to mention.  I just so appreciate your prayers.  May the harvest from this book be credited to your heavenly account as well.

        Thank you Danny Boyd, Daniel Daily and Lori Haider, who were understanding of my need to step out of RHEMA�s Street Evangelism Outreaches in 2006 and 2007, so that I could have time to work on this book.  Thank you Danny Boyd and Daniel Daily for your encouragement. May your ministry increase and grow and spread like peanut butter on bread.              Lori Haider,  I praise God for your awesome work for the Lord in leading the Evangelism Outreach at RHEMA.  Multitudes have been saved because of your obedience to serve the Lord.  Oh how I pray that God will reward you, even while on earth.  Thank you, Aaron, as well for your unwavering encouragement and support.

Thank you Cindy Hansen for starting "TheWriter's Bloc" at RHEMA Bible Church and thanks to all the Writer's Bloc members there who encouraged me to write and get this book done - I Want to Witness, But What Do I Say?   Thank you Shirley Ledford for praying for my back to be healed in Nov. 2007 when I was in such debilitating pain.  I got the joy of the Lord and the pain left as well.  I got healed!

         Thank you Jenn, who worked at Mardels�s Bookstore and bought me Ruth Graham Lotz� book,  Why?  Trusting God When You Don�t Understand at a crucial time in my life in March 2005.  I thank you, Ruth Graham Lotz, for writing this comforting, resurrecting, hope-filled book.  It was a lifesaver.  If you are in Charlotte, NC you should go see the Billy Graham Library.  www.billygraham.org         

           Thank you Bill Shepherd, who was President of the Full Gospel Businessmen�s Fellowship, for being there for me when I received the left foot of fellowship from a judgmental pastor who believed the false accusations about me.  Thank you for encouraging me again and again to �forgive everyone of everything.�   And thank you for teaching me so much about street evangelism.  You were an amazing mentor in my life in 2002 through 2004.  Thank you for teaching me the phrase that you will see so often in this book:  Do you know how much Jesus loves you?� and thank you for encouraging me to prophesy on the streets.  Thank you for allowing me and encouraging me to sing prophetically over so many important political people to impact them for God�s glory as well.  May the blessings of God overtake you and your wife Melissa.

          Thank you Bill LaFortune (former Mayor of Tulsa) who complimented me with: �You have a beautiful singing voice� after I prophesied over him at a Full Gospel Men's Fellowship meeting  two weeks after a pastor told me that I did not have a good voice and so I should not sing at all.  That perfectly timed encouragement restored me and greatly encouraged me.

      Thank you Craig and Kris Weston for inviting me to your home and for being a part of your fellowship a few times.  While at your house, the Lord showed me that I was not "the only one" that had experienced hurts and heartaches from this particular church and that I was not alone!  Realizing this was the key that really helped me put the past behind me and move forward. That was an incredible healing blessing in my life.  Thank you for encouraging me to release the word and prophesy over your son.  Thank you for appreciating the word and for accepting me and blessing me.  Thank you so much.  

            Thank you Jonathan Paolercio for allowing me to teach that Young Adult evangelism cell group class: � I Want to Witness But What Do I Say to:  Mormons, Muslims, Jewish people, Atheists, Hindus, Buddhists�etc.� on Sunday mornings at Victory Christian Center.  Thank you also for allowing me to start the evangelism cell group outreach at the mall in your V-12.   Thanks to Jayne Bowman, Daniel Streeter, Stan Johnson, Rose Turley, Paul Sallee, Kristen McClure and Chevon Paul who participated in that outreach back in April 2003 - Feb. 2004.  Jonathan, I thank you for believing in me because teaching that class and doing the evangelism cell group at the mall planted the seeds in my heart that have come to fruition in this book/website. May all that be credited to your heavenly account.  Thanks for your encouragement.  May your ministry to the nations increase and prosper at  www.preciouspeople.org

           Thank you Oral and Richard Roberts for both being obedient to the Lord's vision to be a light in the darkness, �where His voice is heard small� and to bring the healing power of God to the nations.  Oral, the vision that you had of  �Jesus is coming soon, but the Church is not ready,� in 2004 really inspired me that I had to obey God and write this book and get it published.  Thank you both for persevering through the hard times and for not giving up.  The suffering cannot be compared to the glory that has been and shall be revealed through your ministry (Rom 8:18).  See:  www.orm.cc.  I thank all the Oral Roberts Ministries prayer partners who do not even know who I am, (the ALPG prayer partners give all the glory to God and thus, do no give out their names), but said that after I prayed an anointed prayer over them, that they would pray for me and my family in return.  I thank you for your prayers.  I am looking forward to meeting you all in heaven.  Thank you Don Ailsworth, my supervisor at the Abundant Life Prayer Group (ALPG) at Oral Roberts University, who encouraged me to share an �evangelism object� every day in our devotions and for encouraging me to sing at the Christmas party in 2006.  May you and your wife, Monalisa be blessed and may your ministry prosper.  www.ailsworthministries.org.  Thank You Raymond Forbes (Ass't Supv) for your mercy and loving kindness towards me at the ALPG.  May you and your wife Sandra's ministry prosper in Jamaica!   Thank you Pastor Bill Bell, my supervisor when I worked the 2nd shift at the ALPG, and his wife Kathy, for being so loving and kind when I literally walked through the trial of not having a car during four cold winter months in 2004-2005.  Thank you Teresa Webster, Julianna Morris, Subrina Chandler & Josie Hampton and other kind prayer partners that drove me home after work!  Thank you Liz Ward for being my friend and listening to me and cheering me up and comforting me after some real heart breaking trials.  Thank you Joy Jones for your encouragement and all the bagels!  Thank you Inez Cheatham for being such an awesome encouragement to me and for praying those fiery prophetic prayers for me.  I am believing God with you for your ministry to go forward as well.                    **** A Special Thank you to  Jerry Nelsestuen for encouraging me and reading all of the first versions of the tracts that I wrote.  I said, "Jerry, these tracts are for Christians, not to give away to the lost, but to train them.  The Christians are supposed to keep them and use them."   Jerry replied, "So they are like "train tracts."  I exclaimed:  "YES!  They are like "train tracts!" and we both laughed.  So in that one conversation, the name "train tracts" was born!  Jerry, thank you so much!  And thank you for telling me that I needed pictures on them too.  They do look better with pictures on them.  Thank you so much Jerry for your anointed input and for the other blessings from you and your wife as well.  

Thank you Daniel Mount for telling me:  �You should have a way to tell the Gospel with coffee because everyone drinks coffee��  So I made a train tract for coffee!  Thank you Gary Barhydt for encouraging me so many times in 2006 and for telling me to put away distractions, stay focused and work on this book.  You are such a blessing.

           Thank you Pastors Billy Joe and Sharon Daugherty of Victory Christian Center for giving me a heart for the nations and a heart for evangelism when I went there from Aug. 1995 - Jan. 1999 and then again from April 2002 until March 2005.   Thank you for encouraging your members to witness to the lost and in church to �prophesy to your neighbor.�   There are so many seeds that you have planted in my life. There is too much to tell.  Thank you for not being afraid of what people think and encouraging those struggling with homosexuality that they can be set free.  Thank you Pastor Sharon for all of your anointed praise and worship songs that always encouraged me. I have all your worship CD's and like the "Catch the Fire" one the best.  Thank you for writing your book - What Guys See that Girls Don't  - or Do They? that encourages women to walk in holiness.    www.victory.com

           Thank you John and Lisa Bevere for your ministry and your anointed inspiring books of which most of them I have read.  John, thank you most of all for The Bait of Satan and How to Respond When You Feel Mistreated.   Those books got me through some of the toughest times in my life. www.johnbevere.org    You both have impacted my life is such an awesome way and I thank you so much.  I give honor where honor is due - It is so much due to you.

            Thank you Rev. Curry and Dawn Blake, overseers of  John G. Lake Ministries, for ordaining me as a minister in 2001.  Thank you both for believing in me and for being supportive of my prophetic gifting.  May your ministry increase and prosper.  Curry, you are the real deal.  Through you God has healed thousands of people and four you have raised from the dead (maybe more).  Then God has even multiplied that number by the number of people you have trained to heal others. And I am one of them.  Thank you  for obeying God and giving your all to the Lord.  For incredibly anointed teaching on how to minister healing to the sick go to:  www.jglm.org   Dawn, you are such a blessing, an encouraging friend, an anointed warrior and woman of God.  I am so thankful that you survived one of the worst attacks of the enemy and you are still here marching for the Lord.  Take it easy and remember Matt. 11:28-30.

           Thank you Terry MacAlmon for your anointed praise and worship music. When I complained in my heart to God for not sending �Mr. Right� yet into my life in 2006, your songs reminded me: �He is Worthy� and helped me to �Surrender All� and trust in Him and continue working on this book.  Thank you Darlene Zschech of Hillsongs for your anointed songs that kept me encouraged and walking in obedience to God as well.  Thank you Wes Edwards for your anointed CD.  You really have anointed talent.  May God increase and expand your ministry.

          Thank you Pastors Jim and Tondi Curtis of Tulsa Harvest Church for your personal encouragement and prayers for me.  Thank you for believing in me.   Thank you for your FIRE vision:  the Father�s Love, Intimacy with Him, Restoring broken hearts and Experiencing the Presence of God.  Your church and the prophetic words that come forth from there and from the Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship students helped me through the most painful part of �birthing this baby.� www.tulsaharvestchurch.org     Thank you Rick and Anita Manganaro, the associate pastors, for all of your awesome inspiring sermon messages.  Thank you for your joy and funny take on life. Thank you Victor Young for your prophetic encouragement. Thank you Jody Allen and later, David Paulkey for the anointed praise and worship that comforted me and encouraged me and lifted me so many times so that I could persevere and endure and reach the finish line of birthing this vision in this website.  Thank you John and Carol Arnott for the awesome blessing of the Toronto Blessing that has so abundantly blessed me!  Thank you Esther and Jonathan Graehm from England for your many prophetic prayers and prophetic encouragement.  Thank you Allen Johnson for helping me with web tech support on this website and thank you Sharon Johnson for encouraging  me and allowing me to sing and participate in preaching to the Homeless downtown in the "Crest of Hearts" outreaches. Thank you to all the people at Tulsa Harvest Church! 

Thank you Ruth and Tom Ketchum for your prophetic encouragement as well.  Ruth, your prophetic words are made this heart dance.   The crushed yellow rose has indeed been watered by my tears and has grown again to bloom for the glory of God.   Thank you Judy Hall for the prophetic word about the lily that was slowly moving to the forefront with wings to fly.  

Thank you John Hardacre for fixing my central heat this past winter in late January 2008.  That was an incredible blessing because I was so cold.   May God bless you back and your wife back abundantly for that. 

Special Thanks to the super kindness of John Morlock who gave me his domain:  www.traintracts.com.  If it were not for him, www.traintracts.com  would not have been possible.  (I would have had to use:  traintracts.org  instead). But when I contacted John by phone and told him my story, he was moved by the Lord to give the domain name to me and we transferred it over into my name.  Thank you John!

Thank you George Clark for the awesome upgrade on my computer.  Without the added memory, there is no way that this website would have been possible.  Thank you.  Thank you.  Thank you!  I thank my brother David Mulford for the software Frontpage 2000 that enabled me to create this website  Without you two, this website would not be possible!! Thank you Allen Johnson for helping me with web tech support on this website and thank you Sharon Johnson for allowing me to sing and participate in preaching to the Homeless downtown in the "Crest of Hearts" outreaches.

Thank you Milo Reno of Loaves and Fishes for inviting me to preach and share my train tracts. Thank you Marion Reno, his wife, as well for your encouragement:  "This is so refreshing!"  Even though I was tired, you both greatly encouraged me that day.

Thank you Pastor Rodney Howard-Browne and Adonica.  Your ministry  has always encouraged me, especially after my Mom died of cancer in Jan. 5, 1994.   In Sept. 1993 when you came to RHEMA Bible Church, the joy of the Lord that filled me during those meetings  pulled me through the grief and sorrow and gave me great comfort and helped me to go on and serve the Lord.  Thanks for your obedience to come to America and for your inspiration even now.  You are doing such an awesome Revival work for the Lord at www.revival.com

Thank you Kirk Cameron and Ray Comfort for your TV series, The Way of the Master.   It encouraged me so much! Their ministry is just totally awesome.  I like the way they use the Law to help people see and understand that we are all sinners in need of a savior.  We have all sinned.  We have all told a lie, stolen something (even small), lusted after a woman or a man, took God's name in vain,  not honored our mother or father, etc.  We have all broken God's Ten Commandments and we all deserve to go to hell  - all of us. Hell's best kept secret is to keep people from really understanding that they are sinners in need a savior.  The devil wants everyone to believe that they will make it into heaven because they are a "good person" or being a Christian is so you can have "a better life" with more joy and peace and to prosper you and to be healed, which makes it easy to backslide when everything is going well for you.  Let's not forget the truth that being a Christian means your sins are forgiven and you are saved from going to HELL!!  You are saved from the wrath that is to come. That should be your motive for wanting to become a Christian and live for Him all of your days because Jesus Christ died for your sins on the cross.  We all need to be so thankful for His merciful kindness in suffering for us and taking the wrath of God for our sins upon Himself.  We should love Him for that.  If it were not for Jesus, all of us would go to hell.  So after watching their awesome TV show, at first I thought, what else do I have to say?  But one time, I heard Ray Comfort say on TV one day:   "In witnessing, the most difficult thing that I have is the transition."    So that encouraged me to keep creating the train tracts!  Thank you Ray Comfort!

Thank you Karin Daniels who blessed me with her brother Edward John�s CD (Find Me Guilty) from Norway.  Thank you Edward John.  Your songs encouraged me a lot, especially the songs:  �Time to Give�  and  "I Don't Care" and "Adore" and "Worship You" and even "High on Love."   Yes, I am high on love...well, I  could go on and on.  You are a gold jewel in my crown or a gold thread in this tapestry.   I also so greatly appreciated your DVD's on Fearless Living that helped me overcome the fears of stepping out of my box and pushing this website forward. www.edwardjohn.org    Prov. 3:5-6 and 1 Peter 5:7.  I love the beautiful layout of your new book - Fearless Living.  The pictures add meaning and bring the book alive.  The words within set me FREE to be me!   It instilled in me a deeper commitment to not live for the praise of man or for the honor of man,  but to obey God and live for the praise of God and for His honor all of my days...and to trust Him more.  Thank you for EJ Touch.  It means so much.

Thank you Pastor Willie George for your anointed preaching that has uplifted me so many times.  I especially appreciated your series on "Profit is not a Dirty Word" and "the Shield of Faith" and "Our Heavenly Father" and the "Holiness and Purity" series and so many other messages too numerous to mention.  It is always good.   Thank you thank you Andy Chrisman for your anointed praise and worship songs that lifted me so many times while working on this website.  Thank you for the song:  �We Will Not Be Silent.�   God is getting a lot of people saved through Church On the Move's famous Christmas Train.  Bring your lost friends and loved ones this year.  www.churchonthemove.com

Thank you Pastor Craig Groeschell for your anointed preaching especially "The Warrior" series and on "Habakkuk"   It strengthened me to continue to fight against the many obstacles while I was in the valley or in "the dip" to get this website up and going.  Your messages always encourage me. You can watch his messages online at   www.lifechurch.tv

Thank you to all these Victory Bible Institute grads who helped me get my '98 teal green chevrolet cavalier car up and running again - Brain Ohse, who put a new starter in my car and then also a new battery on 7-20-'08.  Thank you Rodney for giving me your mechanical advice, when I got stranded at AutoZone, that it was really the alternator.   Thank you most of all the Kevin Waita (from Kenya) who trusted me and let me borrow his car so I could get to work and who put in a new alternator for me!  What a victory that was when Kevin Waita and Teddy drove my newly repaired and improved car back home on 7-22-'08!  Thank you mighty men of God! 

Thank you Billye Brim for the book - The Blood and the Glory.  That book has saved from from a lot of demonic attack.  Thank You Pastor Mark Hankins for your book - The Bloodline of a Champion.    I love the confessions and the songs the way it is so clearly written.  Thank you yielding to God at Campmeeting '08 at RHEMA Bible Church. As the joy of the Lord filled me up to overflowing, I did no thinking and a lot of drinking (in the Holy Ghost)! and received and awesome refreshing in the JOY of the Lord.  Thank you so much.  I so needed that refreshing.

Thank you Mary Summer for "throwing the confetti!!" to celebrate my Grand Opening and for the DVD player and for letting me borrow your digital camera and for being so supportive and encouraging along the way.  May your husband, James, and your cat, Edward, and your baby, Jonathan, be so totally blessed!!

Thank You Pastor Keith Moore and your wonderful staff  at Moore Life Ministries for sending me you music CD - Peace of God.  It has helped me sleep so peacefully.  I remember how you were my teacher for four classes at RHEMA (and you gave me an "A" for teacher's lab too!)  and I remember how blessed I was by your anointed teaching Healing School at RHEMA back in 1994 and 1995 when I was grieving the loss of my mother. Your praise and worship lifted me then and it is still lifting me now.  You keep going from glory to glory.  Thank you so much for obeying God and serving the Lord.  Those songs are such a blessing!  

           All these people have greatly inspired and encouraged me in some way from April 2002 until now and thus, they have all helped me in getting this Train Tracts website up and going for the glory of God.  Please pray that God will bless them back abundantly.
