I had to take a few moments to check-in with those that consistently check the blog...
A few months back I decided to cut the blog. It was becoming laborious for me and almost a burden because I felt forced to write something everyday (my life is too crazy for all that madness!!!!!). I needed a break from the pressure.
Well, I was coaxed into starting it back up due to the urging of our public relations coordinator. She told me countless of times that there are many people who do not attend CCM, but want to be part of the family; if not physically, then spiritually. She told me that this blog (though totally impersonal) helps many people get to know me, my vocation, my calling, my heart, my struggles, my family, my burderns, my hopes, and my prayers. I finally agreed to start it back up without the pressure of having to write everyday. It's been a relief!
Just yesterday, she informed me that we have a number of people checking in from across the US on a daily basis. People from El Monte, California (I know, huh?) to White Plains, New York (Yo, forgettaboutit!).
But what really tripped me out was when she told me that people outside the US are checking in?! I'm blown away to know that you stop by and I will shamelessly ask that you pray for me and the staff at CCM.
Here's some love and a Montebello WhhaaaazzzUP to those checking in from:
Cibu City, Phillipines
Republic of Korea
Kuala Limpur, Malaysia
Liverpool, England
Singapore
Kiev, Ukraine
London, England
Islamabad, Pakistan
Manchester, England
Canada
Le Fuielle, France
Osaka, Japan
Melbourne, Australia
Jalisco, Mexico

I'm not sure you will ever really know what you mean to others around the world, but thats the real beauty of what God(YHWH) is doing through your ministry.
Here's some help.
I'm encouraged and am given courage by the life you so openly share with me in Christ. I thank Jesus for the gifts He gives to His Church as we get ready for the feast.
Pastor Pancho,
I have to ditto Andrew.
I was thrilled to read that you have people looking in on your blog from Kiev, Ukraine. This is neat, I have family in the Ukraine and I prayed that someone there can and will reach out to them to share the Love of Christ with them. Know I know that there is someone there doing the work that the Lord has called upon them to do.

Pastor Juarez,
Many thanks again for allowing GOD to work through your life. Many of us are thousands of miles away, but still enjoy your teachings and are benefiting from them by gaining wisdom in Christ.
Aloha and mahalo from the 50th state,

Agreed Pancho, I check in from Exeter, CA whenever I can, I became a fan of your method of teaching when I saw you two years in a row at the Central Valley Mens Conference in Visalia.
I came from a missions church in Scotland (Calvary Chapel Glasgow) and was born in Scotland.
Now I am in California teaching Americans the word of God! I am blessed!
Pancho, you are an inpseration to those of us who think they cannot be used by God. The CD I have of yours called "knucklehead wisdom" really spoke to me and you are a fine vessel of the Word of God.
I know this is old but I use to look you up when I was in North Carolina and every chance I got when I was in Iraq so I'm glad your on the net.
