Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year Dec 2025

I was 10 years old, standing outside of the Dorchester Free Methodist Church a few

weeks after a revival where I had dedicated my life to Jesus when I felt Jesus say, I would

manage a children's home someday. I thought our children, foster children and

adopted children was the answer to this message from God.

After receiving a degree from SIU-E in Special Education, Behavioral Disorders,

Learning Disabilities and Elementary K-12, a year of full time teaching special cross

categorical class, subbing over 42 years, achieving a license as a minister from ISOM

(Illinois School of Ministry (Assembly of God), licensed minister from Christ for the

Nations, grad of ICMI (International Children's Ministry Institute) from LRM Missions and

 teaching preschool class the last 15 or more years we believe this Word from God is

coming to pass as we purchased the former Life Center, from LRM Missions this week!

I've been secretary/bookkeeper for my husband Dennis's business, Schuette Design for 43 years and since we were married.

In February of this year our church had a School of the Spirit with evangelist Steve Samson who had a word for us, “Work Horse”...”I've got a few things for you to do...just kidding”...and that “our latter years will be greater than the former”...That's what we believe God is doing in the recent purchase of the former Life Center, 1285 East Union Avenue, Litchfield, IL 62056.

OUR VISION for Sunshine Living/Education & Training: We hope to have full occupancy fall of 2026 for starting a Bible School affiliated with CFNI (Christ for the Nations, Dallas, Texas. We will have online and in person classes. Former owner of the building, Gwen Davis started ICMI (International Children's Ministry Institute) and most of the ICMI classes transferred to CFNI when Joan got licensed from CFNI as licensed minister. We are a 501c3 “committed to bringing Jesus, His Word, and Revival to the USA and to the Nations” similar to mission of LRM Missions.
