Yes, I finally was able to travel to Kenya and be with Pastor Sagana in the town of Goucha, Kenya, Africa; providence of Kisii, Kenya. I left December 8th, 2011 and I returned December 17th, 2011. I had two days traveling time; total of depture and return to USA. I was there for (8) days with Pastor Sagana, his family, all the relatives, the staff, and all the children; (28) impoverished children. There was (25) Orphans and (3) children which had either one mother or a father, but they were too destitute or too severly ill to care for the child.

 

I have been asked by many persons as to why it has taken so long to publish this article, and I must answer everyone with caution.

 

I have sent all that I can possibliy can pull from my personals accounts/monies  I can produce. This comes from my wife, Tanya and I called to sacrifice  to "care for  the widows and orphans." Any money I am given for the Orphans, 100% of that goes their needs and I provide the transmmissions charges.

This I say because I had to save for (3) years; a dollar here or five dollars there, which was put into a Account for my trip. Three years everyone, I had to wait three years to see Pastor Sagana and the children. It was worth waiting, because they were given money for food, medical needs, and school, plus phase One of the new building was finished.

 

So, now I have said that and you are saying to yourselves,"Were is the answered to the question everyone has asked him?" I was broke everyone, flat broke finacially and in my heart. Yes, I came back excited, blessed, full of great experiences, and the joy of spending a great deal of time with the precious children; my grandchildren !  I has worked so hard these past three years trying to find them the people to care for them and I have provided everything I personally can; through exhaustion and frustration in finding people who will not think that I want money but for them to take and for them to be the providers , which they are commisioned by God to do and therby be blessed by the Lord God.

 

I have came back to find a dry well of "willingness", of financial support, and full of worries about selves. I understand why these were happening and I see all therir concerns, because I have been dried up finacially, I was broken-hearted and concerned about how I could get everything stable again, and I was worried about myself. I had begun to become tried all the time, and a little depressed, even wanting to go hide for weeks (unwillingness).

I have been praying, fasting, seeking the Lord God on these matters. I Began to see my need to trust my heavenly Father, and WAIT!

 

I did it and after (41) days God sent me a great blessing; a national company called me to talk about helping the children in Kenya. I then recieved a call from a friend who had money he want to send, and then another company called me to help, plus others are calling to set in motion their monies to the children.

 

I have been on the computer, the telephone, cell phone, running to meetings, and walking from store to store speaking to hundreds of persons or managers about the great need.

 

I will end this long message with this; I came back from Kenya knowing many people have come together to help these people, these childre, this country, that continent, and the world by their love, sacrifice, and prayers. I have seen what huge changes in their lives, but what I say are huge are only the things that kept form always being hungry, from deaths that were ocurring, from wearing rags as clothes, and from kept out of school.

What I found when I arived was a stark reality of the need is greater then I could comprhend through words or pictures. I came back heart broken , that I want to do more and I am not able to alone.

 

I will publish the picture and videos , now that I was able to retieve them and you can laugh, sing, and fall in ove with the children and the people there. You can see that your heart, mine, and many others together can do greater things to cover these children with our love, and care.

 

I has taken awhile to get the time and ability to write this artilce and I pray you will come back to see the pictures and videos.

 

Thank you and God bless you.

 

Rev. Ray

Foundation of the Ministry

RevRaymond_250Realization Ministries was first formed in the heart of a young Air Force servicemen, named Raymond J. Rippenkreoger.

 

After this "lost but now found" young man began to read the Bible on a daily basis and pray fervently, he was led to follow the Holy Spirit of God in every aspect of his life. Amazingly things began to happen in his life and in the life of those he encountered.

 

As he grew in the spirit and in the wisdom from the Lord Jesus, he would step out in faith. He was always at church; most times twice on Sundays, unless he was on duty at the base. There was a deep desire to be in a ministry for the learning and the doing, as well as to lead a ministry. Many times you would find him at the church or where ever the particular ministry was being held. And the chances offered for meeting others in fellowship were never passed by.

 

Soon this child of God's was "winning souls" for Jesus. He was testifying or encouraging the fellow airman on base, at churches, on the streets, and anywhere he traveled in the world. People began to tell him of his character, gifts, and passion. They could see how he was anointed by God.

 

When you come from a life of chaos and sadness, you do not think those things ever leave or they can be healed in a short amount of time. The usual choice is to say that it is not the right time to be used by God for the greater good; reaching the lost in the capacity of a minister or evangelist.

 

After the Lord had shown him that he was brought through trials, tribulations, and tasks for wisdom, strength, and healing so he could be used in a larger capacity he received confirmation of God's plan.

 

 

 

"It was after the Lord Jesus Christ had shown me, Raymond J. Rippenkroeger, that he had called me to reach the lost in a greater capacity. I followed the leading of the Holy Spirit to study and become ordained. I received my ordination on August 12, 2005. It was through many years of studying the Word of God, serving in many ministries, being tutored by many ministers and lay preachers, plus the years of Online Seminary and On Campus Seminary studies, that I stand before the people of the world as Reverend Raymond J. Rippenkroeger.

 

"The Lord Jesus led my wife and I to move to the state of Texas; the Austin area. At that time I was given the vision and the passion to began the Online evangelistic ministry 'Realization Ministries' (realizationministries.com). It is through the development of the web site by my son, Michael and the continued advice from my wife, Tanya whom also is part of the staff, and myself that makes up this ministry.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"I was already continuing my 'street witnessing' ministry in all the communities in the Austin, Texas area. Now I was fulfilling the vision God had given many individuals since 1981, to be an ordained minister of the Lord.

"As God had laid it on my heart, Realization Ministries is here to: 'Be an ear to listen, A place to vent, a time of peace and healing.' Anyone in the world can go on line and read the sermons and articles for their growth and the need to understand the Word of God better. There are also resources that will be posted such as books, places of worship or helps, and certain persons in particular fields of interest.

 

"This outreach ministry is supported by the blessings of God through his provisions and those of individuals or groups whom are led to support it.

 

"The lines are open and the telephone numbers are on twenty-four hours a day and seven days a week.

 

"May God bless you and may all of us at Realization Ministries be a blessing to you who 'come and see.'"

Sermon: "Tis The Season to be Faithful to Praise"

References:

Matthew 4: 4; Matthew 22: 37-40; and 1 John 5: 14-15.

 

Hear Ye, Hear ye, it is nearing the "Christ" mas Season or as we all say it, "Christmas" Season.

Yes, it is true that Jesus, the Christ, was not born in December; but it is or it use to be the time of the year that most citizens of the United States celebrated the birth of Jesus the Christ. Maybe they centered on the Christ Child instead of the Person of Jesus Christ AND why He was born, walked among us, was crucified, died, AND rose from the grave; at least they focused on HIM!!

Presently, we see very little of the celebration of Christ’s birth or His life and it is almost obscured by the commercialism; gifts, gifts and going into debt both financially and emotionally.
