About Me
By the grace and mercy of God, the "Real Me" is still standing. I'd love to hear from anyone via my email address, which is jalces@aol.com. I'm not sure how often I'll be able to check this site, as I'm already struggling to stay in touch with hundreds, if not thousands, of dear saints around the world. My heart has a deep affinity for anyone who ever sat thru PFAL--we were in the right place at the right time.
Pat and I were divorced in 1994, and in 2002 I married the former Elizabeth Chavez (17th Corps) Prygrocki. We live in Indianapolis, though we traveling as much as we can to minister the Word wherever people want us to come.
My dear daughter, Christine, is now 38, married to non-ex-Way New Yorker Billy Norton, and they live in Kyle, Texas with my two grandchildren, Mahalia (6) and Will (4), who I post up regularly. Christine has her PhD in Clinical Social Work, and is internationally recognized with Outward Bound, the prototype wilderness therapy outfit. She is a professor at Texas State University, and a regular presenter at the annual National Association of Experiential Education convention.
God has graciously and mercifully worked with me these past 22 years since I was dispatched by TWI. I work in ministry with Spirit and Truth Fellowship International, which I started in 1987. My dear friend John Schoenheit was there then, and we still work together. It is a joy and privilege to be able to help people around the world.

It is bittersweet "replying" to my brother JAL, who is now awaiting the Return of the Lord. He fell asleep in late Sept. 2021 in Indiana. <3
Hi John,
Hope this finds you on top of your game. Thanks for your request. God bless you.

Feel free to call me. I was reading your article on: The Way it was. I thought you did a fantastic job describing our minisitry and the greatness of it in a nutshell. It's so easy for Believer's to get passive. (Isn't that the adversary's goal)? My cell is: 619-846-8678 Have a Blessed Day!
I was glad to receive your response. I will get my son Victor in your program before the PSAT. My mom just signed up on this website so you should be able to speak with her soon.
In response to your question regarding my reference to a heavenly kingdom of many nations I would like for you to please tell me what you think of the following passage," The Glory of the New Jerusalem" Revelation 21:22-27
But I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. The city had no need of the sun or of the moon to shine in it, for the glory of God illuminated it. The Lamb is its light. And the nations of those who are saved shall walk in its light, and the kings of the Earth bring their glory and honor into it. Its gates shall not be shut at all by day (there shall be no night there). And they shall bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it. But there shall by no means enter it anything that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb's Book of Life.
Our concern should always be the integrity of the Word of God so I really appreciate your passion for this. Since the Word is the standard we should be able to reason in the scriptures with the scriptures. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the subject.
God Bless,
Lester
Good to see you on here. We spoke some time ago about your SAT prep program that I hope you are still doing. I have a son who is going to be a Sophomore at North Central next year and he will need your program.
I read some of your posts and as I reflect on what I learned in the ministry and what I learned after the ministry I realize that we rarely know as much as we think that we do about God and His Word. As I continue to study, fellowship and travel God draws me closer to Him each day.
My experience in Israel in 2005 really amplified my understanding of what God is trying to communicate to His people about a heavenly kingdom of many nations.
Do you remember dedicating me in Massachusetts around 1978-79? My mother is Sandra Carver Family 7 Way Corps but she was a WOW in Brockton, Ma. at that time. Foster Smith was the Limb Coordinator.
God Bless,
Lester Wiley Carver
