Hi everybody!

It's great to talk to you again! There's a lot going on, and it's almost to
a point where I can't put it in order!

I'm working on a new project - yes, you heard the rumors right! I'm starting
to work on some songs for the first time in a long time. I'm not sure of the
direction yet but it's still exciting! I'm working with some friends in
Seattle, courtesy of my manager, Ricky.

Rick Anderson, a great man of God, is very helpful to me in working with 4K
Records as we're trying to untie The Grafting from some distribution
interference here in the U.S. Please pray for our success.

We're working on international distribution; apparently that's coming out
Sept. 15; we thought it was going to come out in June. Its one more holdup,
but we'll make it through!

Everything else seems to be going well; the family is all healthy doing
fine.

My volunteer staff with the "John Schlitt Organization" all seem to be fired
up, which is very exciting for me. Looking at myself - I'm actually very
encouraged and I can't tell you exactly why, but praise God for it!

I'm trusting in the Lord and I'm feeling like things are picking up,
although I certainly couldn't tell you that looking at my bank account or my
concert potentials! But I see the staff working hard; Benita, Sue and Lynn,
Ricky and Rick - all these guys are not giving up - praise God! 

And I want to thank you all for praying for me because I know you're not
giving up either. There's something that God has in store - I wish I knew
exactly what it was - but I do know there's a lot of doors opening which
I've prayed for. I'm asking Him to close the doors that I'm not supposed to
walk through, and open the doors that I'm supposed to walk through - and
that's how I'm living day by day.

So pray for me - pray for my family - pray for my staff and their families.
I thank you for your interest in my ministry.

...John
