Welcome to The Santos Ministries web site. We are His hand extended.
Whenever you see an underlined word in blue that means it is a link, so CLICK on it and check it out, also scroll all the way down these long pages, we have many links and helpful info on this site.
Santos Ministries is a 501 (c-3) non-profit organization
Our ministry is committed to sharing the awesome love that Jesus
Christ offers. We do that through the talents and gifts He has given.
If there be anything praiseworthy in our lives today, it is because
of the price Jesus paid on Calvary’s cross. And as my
friend Jon Courson
say's "Point people to the Cross. And they’ll
find Jesus". Oswald
Chambers said, "All heaven is interested in the cross of Christ,
all hell is terribly afraid of it.
The Power of The Cross
Personally, whenever I see the cross (and I see it everywhere, everyday,
in every town, city, and state I am in) it always reminds me of
how Jesus went ALL the way for me. That is the sole reason I am
off drugs and walking in total victory today.
"Walk with the King and be a blessing"
As
the old hymn states " Jesus paid it All. ALL to Him I owe.
sin made a crimson stain. He washed it white as snow."
Now
I'm scrubbed clean and singin for The King of Kings, ( He can do that for anyone. )
Santos
<><
Who's this King of Kings
Great time to start a one year bible reading plan join me right here
Remember! harmful addictions can be like poking holes in your only lifeboat

T Real freedom can happen for you this year if you let HIM do what He so wants to do for you...Set you free!

Santos Ministries Road Report
For the beginning of 2008 We will be spending more time at Calvary Ranch helping in the day to day operations. Calvary has become an awesome ministry in the 38 plus years of it's mission to help navigate men and women to a full, whole, complete, abundant life in Jesus Christ.

Pensacola, Florida The 7th annual Highways and Hedges outreach was awesome as we reached out to the hurting, incarcerated, homeless, addicted people of the panhandle of Florida and Alabama's coastal communities.
 

 
Everywhere I travel I meet so many that were transformed by the POWER of God
like my dear friend Jack "Murf the Surf" Murphy and David Berkowitz.there are so many more
 
Santos held events in jailsl, The Waterfront Rescue Mission, a mens barn meeting, and also at area Churchs.
he got to share some lessons from the former "son of sam" now Son of Hope" prison minister
David Berkowitz who has published a very personel book of his daily prison journal/devotions.
There is HOPE for anyone, David is living proof of God's restoring POWER!
The men were deeply touched by God's awesome Amazing Grace!
Santos even had a chance to be at The National Naval Air Museum with The Blue Angels who were flying right over his head that day as they practiced the super precision flying manuvers and breaking the sound barrier.
 
eLate summer and fall was a great ministry tour of the north east U.S. Be back in May '08

Please be praying for Brother Gene "the running machine" Roberts on his long journey for Jesus.
I just ran into The U.S. Marines ..It was just one guy but it might as well been a whole division...
I recently was in the blistering 110 degree Palm Desert, CA singing at Calvary Chapel right after having dinner with Pastor Joe Coleman and his wife I was driving back to the hotel I came upon a vehical on the right side of the road going slow; and as passed it by I saw a sign on the side that read "Running Across Americal for Jesus". I cleared the front of the van and spotted Gene Roberts; a former USMC Vietnam vet who had both legs blown off in combat. Using artificial legs, he is running from Camp Pendelton, CA to the east coast. - Please PRAY for Gene Roberts on his LONG journey..... talk about inspiration, I got to meet him further down the road when he pulled over for a break in a Wal-Mart parking lot he had me in tears. I gave him both of my Jesus Doo-Wop CD's for his trip across America....... we are gonna stay in touch through his web site at www.raafj.com Read the latest news story just out on Brother Gene and please pray for this mighty couregeous brother and his wife.
The Jesus People just had a tent full of God's love Pastor Chuck and the Jesus people tent six weeks of revivals were off the charts.
   
Oh do we love singing for The King we love it so much we recorded a CD of it called "Deep and Rich "
Archived webcastsfrom Costa Mesa
Pastor Chuck Smith was at every nightly tent service enjoying every minute of it, after serving the flock at CCCM for well over 35 years it was so great to see him watching all this unfold before his eyes ...the joy of being a very faithful servant of The Lord. Read about the wrap up
Read about some of the Pastors Chuck mentored over the years
Read about the making of "Deep and Rich"
Pastor Chuck and Santos sang "How Great Thou Art" as a duet on this very special CD project but the real story was how that classic song was introduced to The United States in 1957 at the
NYC Billy Graham Crusade by George "Bev" Shea.

In Rome a horse said "no way are you riding
me buddy" Now me and Dr Nick enjoy our wives, diet cokes and pray it
off.
Noteworthy
Recently
I was in Israel and I noted that Jesus ministered in the middle
of the noisey, crowded, chaos - alot of the time. Even today in Jerusalem,
at Golgatha, The Garden Tomb, The Antonio Fortress, and the market
places of the old city, it is very noisey and busy and seems chaotic.
But wherever He went, as in my case and for so many others He brought personel
peace, calm and order even in the midst of Chaos just like in the case of
the demoniac Mark chapter 5, only Jesus
could do that, He even does that for me in my rebellious food
life.
"He is truly The Prince of Peace" in every situation .
