With a great and deep sadness in my heart, we must prepare to lay one of the Greatest Men to rest. Eternal life awaits you at the shores of Valhalla Brother

I am going to miss our late night conversations about life, business, and the deeper things full of meaning. Talks that transcend time, as Patrick spoke with the wisdom of a very old and wise soul. Touching so many lives across this Great Nation and beyond. The world is lesser today for it has lost a Giant

Rest in peace Brother Patrick

May we meet in the afterlife

Please pray for his family and friends

Seeing people rejoice over the tragedy in Utah makes my stomach turn... Many of the same persons have been the same ones shouting about taking our 2nd amendment rights away.

It's time we start calling a duck a duck folks... mental illness has taken a grip on way too many people in the guise of political activism

Having separate and different beliefs is what built America. It was once coveted as the melting pot of the world where all could come and make their piece of paradise.

Entering the country illegally does not make you an American citizen

Killing those who think differently than yourself does not make your thinking superior

Stabbing innocent and defenceless refugees does not make you a martyr when you die

Absolutely horrendous to wish death upon those who are different and think differently than yourself. Yet I hear the accusations, self projection, and abominable utterances towards their imagined enemy (neighbors, family members, and any who do not believe identically to themselves)

3 years ago FOMMM was made official after several years of study, and hard consideration

It's never easy to wear your beliefs on your sleeve , let alone pick up shield and sword to fight for them. That is what I must do however... To spread knowledge and skills for Farming and Homesteading (without the paywall and conditional access). To bring folks back to the land as it were .. not metaphorically mind you , In Real Life, as the youngsters say nowadays

Of all the things I do , marrying folks might be my favorite

Getting married is a wonderful adventure in and of itself but officiating others big day let's me continue to share in the experience! Nothing is more wonderful than joining two beautiful souls in loving marriage 🖤🖤🖤

How fun 😊😊😊

I may post some of the edited photos if the bride and groom allow once they are ready!

The 4th of July holiday is looking a bit different for me this year

I am on the road to all corners of the state and beyond to meet with folks about funding my ministry

A hard but very necessary part of the things we do is finding people that believe in what we do! As I tell folks, the mission is to spread knowledge and skills for farming and homesteading

Although that sounds simple on the surface, it is more important now than ever before to teach our future generations to become more self sufficient!

I believe in teaching folks about farming and homesteading without the pay wall that so many events and educational opportunities sit behind. The homesteading way is not a business model as so many others have made it to be, it's a community strengthening and hard won gift from our forefathers.

Our grandfathers and their grandfathers learned to do things for themselves and for their families most importantly of all. Building farms from bare land. Creating with their bare hands the easy world we have inherited. It's come time to honor the sweat and blood they shed to let us enjoy the fruits of their labor.

Spreading knowledge and skills for Farming and Homesteading in order to preserve the future as it was intended in the past.
