| Breakthrough Comes for Heroin Ridden Espanola New Mexico |
| Wed, May. 14 2008 |
| For over 10 years now, Espanola, NM has been the top priority for health and government officials. This small town suffers from heroin addicted men, women, teens and elders. One in four persons is an addict. And in 2004 the rate of overdose deaths was 17.8 deaths per 100,000 persons according to the New Mexico Department of Health. But a ray of light has been shed in the people’s hearts as a small church with a big heart begins to reach out the community in unconventional ways. New Creation in Christ Ministries began their work with the young people of Espanola on the town’s most popular cruising street Thursday, April 24th, 2008 with a hard hitting concert. They brought out popular hip hop artists with hearts for the people. Some of the groups they brought out was The S.O.G. Crew from Anaheim, CA and JDubb from New Mexico. The pastors of the area heard of the work that The S.O.G. Crew has done for Native American Reservations across the nation and heard of the testimonies of crime rates coming down, suicide rates dropping, school attendance increasing, drug use decreasing because of their hearts to encourage the young people and share Christ in their lives with them; praying with them and inviting the people to contact them for friendships. The plans for combating the area’s heroin addiction have begun with an injection of music and prayer that encourages those facing death and addiction to turn to hope and faith in Christ at a time when rehabilitation centers fail to keep the newly graduated citizens from reverting back to using and overdosing. New Creations in Christ Ministries will be hosting a series of music events to draw the people in. Keep an eye out for more events to come and keep the people in battle against drug addiction in your prayers.
On behalf of The S.O.G. Crew, I thank all of our support network, friends, and family for continuing to faithfully pray for our team and the cities we are sent to. |

| The 4th Annual Let Your Fire Fall Youth Crusade |
| Wed, Oct. 24 2007 |
The 4th Annual Let Your Fire Fall Youth Crusade was another successful event where people have come together in one place to worship God, and cry out for the city of Anaheim. It took place on Saturday, September 29th, 2007 at the Pearson Park Amphitheatre in Anaheim, CA. The people were blessed by musical ministers on stage such as: Big Unc, Urban Ops, Flowtriss, Kenya, Living Stone, APX, Imisi, Cyrus N Rem, Young Pro, Divine Impact, S.O.C.O.M., Jaymay, The S.O.G. Crew, Touch of the Master, Essence, and Leonti. For 7 hours the people worshipped and prayed while the ministers on stage led them. By the end of the night, ordained Evangelist Robert ‘Battle Ax’ Ornelas, Corinth Horton, and Essence brought the evening home with the ushering in of the Holy Spirit; the glory cloud of God had filled the whole stadium. The people cried out with hands lifted up, voices ringing high and loud, and tears running down their faces. God came to meet the need of his great people. God’s joy filled the place and for 45 minutes the city of Anaheim, everyone’s families, those who didn’t make it, those who were not there and praying with us; received a blessing of peace and joy from God that will last an eternity. Broken families were mended, broken hearts were comforted, the hard-hearted were humbled, the unbelieving believed, and the hungry were fed. God met the needs of his people. The people from this city and the people who have come from Indio, Chatsworth, Los Angeles, San Diego and surrounding cities have witnessed and been a part of God’s new move toward unity and networking for the greater works of God that are ready to be unleashed. Let Your Fire Fall Ministry will continue to provide this event for the people every year until God himself tells them to stop. And from year to year the increasing numbers of people will know that they can come to the Let Your Fire Fall Youth Crusade to hear amazingly hot music and receive a blessing from God’s very own Presence. To those who have been a big part of this event, we thank you for all your prayers, helps, and fellowship. We are excited to see the outcome from the blessing in this city and the people’s lives who attended. And we are excited that next year’s event will be even greater than this year’s. God bless, DJ SiREN The S.O.G. Crew |

Dear Family And Friends,
Last Friday we hung out at the Hope for homeless ministry at the Los Angeles Dream Center. Hope for Homeless Youth is a ministry that helps young men and women in Los Angeles.
The staff brought in many homeless people from Santa Monica, Hollywood and around Los Angeles. The staff gave the people food and a hot shower. We then came in with a concert, word and alter call. Many people were people that have lost all and found there way to the Dream Center. It's a blessing to be able to pray with those that are hurting and lost and to see them receive hope.
Isa 61:1 ¶ The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound
We were blessed to minister at Cruising for Jesus ministries in Reedley near Fresno California under Pastor Horacio Aleman on Sunday night. This was our first time in Reedley and we were blessed by the hospitality and love that the people from the Christian car ministry moved in. We met Pastor Horacio and his staff a few months back as we ministered together at the Fresno Convention Center along with the Mayor of Fresno and many Professional football and baseball players. It was exciting to see God move and unite our ministry's together. We did a few songs and then I was asked to share the word to the packed house. I gave a word on Boldness and how important it was to be confident in Christ. Then God moved and blessed the people with his presence. Cruising for Jesus is putting together an annual crusade car show in the city of Reedley Ca on August 18th. If you live in the area and would like to do something with the whole family, please stop by and say hi to our friends out there.
Also, don't forget to keep our youth crusade on September 29th in your prayers. We are lifting up the city of Anaheim up to the Lord. Love you guys. Please stop buy and give us some feedback. We want to know how you all are doing.

| An Open Heaven |
| Thu, May. 31 2007 |
| Mal 3:10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.
I believe that I am in a season of my life were God is emptying out his blessings over my life. I have given to God what he has asked of me. I have given my all even though I could not understand at the time. I have stepped into the unknown and the uncharted by faith. The only thing that kept me was his word. Now, the windows of opportunities are at hand. God has opened up doors to me and all those around me that no man can shut. It reminds me of the story of the shepherd boy who's motives were pure that became king of a great nation. I am amazed how God can take a person and put great grace on him. I pray that all those that read this will walk under an open heaven. |

| The Lakota People (Sioux Tribe) |
| Fri, May. 25 2007 |
| We just got back from working in South Dakota with the Lakota People. (Sioux Tribe) We traveled out there because we heard that the reservations were in a State of emergency because of all the suicides among the young people. We were blessed to work on the Rose Bud, The Pine Ridge, White River, Saint Francis High School, Boys and Girls Club, Radio interview and many other things while visiting. We were honored to sit among the leaders of a group called, "The Seven Councils Of Fire," who are the descendents of the Lakota great leaders of the past. Before moving in to minister to the people we asked for there permission and blessing to do what God has called us to do. We were blessed to see the people edified and dancing in the presence of God. We were taken up to the Black Hills to pray for restoration of this country. We have been asked to go back in the near future and many groups and organizations are working together to see this come to pass. I see the Lakota people uniting together to make sure that their young people have a chance for life. Send us some feed back.
God bless

Our mission in life is to stir Gods great people up and get them ready for the biggest tidal wave of revival that has ever been recorded in the history of man kind.

| I HAVE SET BEFORE YOU AN OPEN DOOR |
| Mon, Nov. 7 2005 |
Re 3:8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
What a blessing to know that our Lord has seen our labor and has found us faithful with the little. The thing that makes us different is that we dont compromise our callings when the storms and trials hit. He says in His word that He has set before us an open door. What it means is that He has opened to us a great opportunity to preach his word throughout the world. He has given to us the full liberty to profess and preach the gospel. Open door also means to enter into the joy of our Lord so that we are unhindered as we enter into the new and unknown. We have been blessed with an adventure that is exciting.
We have been praying for San Diego for some time now. We have never ministered there and have been waiting on Jesus to open the door. A few days ago we were invited to minister to the Pala Mission Indians on the outskirts of San Diego. We have never herd of them up in till the day of the invitation. We went out there by faith not knowing what to expect. We met the Native Indians of Pala and had an awesome time of prayer and fellowship. We gave them our music cds not expecting anything in return. What we received from the Pala Mission Indians will go a lot farther than material things. They were led to bless us to minister to all San Diego. You see when our God opens the door, no man can shut it.

| MONTANA TRIP |
| Mon, Oct. 24 2005 |
| We want to thank all of our friends for supporting us through prayer as we spent the weekend in Montana. We started out our tour of Montana by doing a show at a Christian Night Club in Billings. We shared the stage with WSC from Phoenix Arizona and local artists Index and from the Native American Indian Tribe (Crow Agency) Superman. The night was an exciting time for the locals and night club staff. The event started with lots of lights, loud music and fog machines and ended with a lot of people crying and sobbing as hearts were touched by our Lord. We want to thank the entire staff and family of the Double Edge Night Club for bringing us out and blessing us with hospitality.
The next night we ministered in Great Falls at Central Assembly of God. The Great Falls area is known for having one of the largest community in the country for Wicka witchcraft. The youth have been exposed to the witchcraft and have committed there lives to fight against that spirit. We were blessed to see the young people on fire and truly crying out for our Lord to visit them. The night was kicked of with a demon deliverance in the middle of the concert. We want to thank everyone in Great falls for welcoming us into there lives.
We finished our trip by ministering at a revival in Whiteriver Arizona. It was the last day of revival for the Apache people at the 7Mile miracle Church. The Lord moved and touched all the people that attended the meeting. |

| ASK FOR REFRENCES |
| Tue, Jul. 19 2005 |
| Before deciding to work with a particular promoter, find out who they've worked with in the past. Ask for a list of references and if they'd mind if you contacted them before making your decision. Promoters do it when booking artists. Why shouldn't you when working with a promoter?
It's always good to do research into a promoter with whom you're interested in working. Visit their website to look for a professional image, review the projects they've done before, and find out what artists they've worked with. A promoter with a project or event they sincerely believe in will be happy to supply you with references. You can be proactive in supplying a list of your references to them as well. Have a list of 3 to 5 promoters and artists you've worked with that would be willing to speak on your behalf. |

| THERE WAS A WHOLE LOT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AT THE EXTREME CAMP |
| Wed, Jul. 14 2004 |
| We were encouraged to see the excitement among the many youth from different areas of California come together to seek God. It turned from a hip hop concert to a weeping, crying and repenting time in the Lord. A few people came to the Lord for the first time while many sought for a higher relationship with the Lord. I encourage those that read this letter to think about taking your children next year for a mountain top expierience.(Pastor Robby (909) 323-1321) |

| IT WAS ON AT THE HOUSE OF GRACE |
| Fri, May. 21 2004 |
| We just want to thank the whole family at House of Grace Christian Center under Pastor Rick Soto for inviting us to the building dedication. We shared the stage with many different evangelists and Pastors in the area including Pastor Tony Garcia from Victory Outreach in Phoenix Arizona, singing from Gene Amaya, and a contemporary worship band from El Monte called The Voice. The event was a blessing and we were visited by the cloud of God. Pastor Rick, The Lord gave me this scripture for you. (Jeremiah 23:3 And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all countries whither I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and increase. 4 And I will set up shepherds over them which shall feed them: and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall they be lacking, saith the LORD.) So from the S. O. G. Family and Let Your Fire Fall Ministries, we want to say thank you for being a compassionate father over our brother and sister in the Lord. God bless you and your family, Pastor Robert Ornelas (Battle Ax) |

| (This is a past review.Check us out on line Sat, May. 29 3pm pacific)
The first gospel group to be featured in-studio with Chief Jack, The SOG Crew performed a live piece to close out the show on October 19 after spending the entire hour entertaining our listeners with the story of their lives and faith. The group is made up of Pastor Robert, Johnnie, and Shine. They got tremendous response from our audience as far away as Italy with their Gospel Rap sound that is both fresh and entertaining. |

| I want to thank Prophet Clyde Rivers for having us out to be a part of the movement that is taking place among the worriers. The message that was given to the people by the Holy Spirit, is to get back to the place of worship. As we worship, all of our needs will be met. We will continue to seek first the kingdom of God over everything else. Thanks Pastor Clyde. We are excited about rocking many more with you and the Special Ops Network in the Future.

| Praise Chapel and Solid Rock Youth Events |
| Fri, May. 14 2004 |
| We had a great time fellowshiping and ministering at Solid Rock Baptist Church. We want to give big ups to Youth Leader Anita Harris for holding it down with the youth in South Central Los Angeles.
We ended last nights mission in the city of Rancho Cucamonga with many youth at Praise Chapel and Pastor Jesse. With many types of music ministries including reggae, rap groups the Taylor's and Fros-T, we ushered in the unity and hip-hop fun in the spirit.
My encouragement to both Solid Rock and Praise Chapel youth groups is to push forward and not look back. Continue to do what you love and enjoy to do. On behalf of the SOG family, we want to say thank you for inviting us and looking forward to the next time that we can come together and seek the Lord.
God Bless,
Battle Ax (Pastor Robert) |

| REVIVAL |
| Wed, Apr. 28 2004 |
| We are in our 46th day of revival and we are experiencing a mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit here in Anaheim. We believe that we as a ministry have received the message from the heart of the father for this up and coming season. The message is intercession. We have orders to pray for all leaders in this country. Since we work with the youth in Southern California, we are to lift up music ministries and those in the front lines of this jungle. In the middle of this prayer revival, we also have received the orders and blessing to come out this summer with our first album. |
