• Bless you Pastor Dion and thank you Jesus for giving us Pastor Dion. Your messages are what I need every morning and I thank the Lord for you. I read about your struggles in life and how it was God's plan to bring you to where you are now. What a beautiful lesson for us readers! Although I can feel the pain in your words of your situation at the time, praise Jesus that you were an obiedient son and submitted to Him so that He could work out this wonderful plan for your life and to pass on these stories of inspiration to us readers so that we may also grow in the Lord too. Thank you for being a wonderful son and minister to our hearts!


• I would like to send a message to Dion. I want him to know that about 2-3 months ago I couldn’t go to church that Sunday. So instead I logged on to refreshing hope to watch his church. There was a spot for prayer requests and so I asked for prayer for my back problems. I have suffered from severe pain for 18 years never finding out the problem. Nor could doctors help. I have been through it all. Much to my surprise when he prayed for me he used oil. And I don’t know what happened but I began to pray and cry. Now I’m not a crier over prayer but I felt something overwhelming. And after I started a new treatment not involving drugs or surgery. It’s called stem wave. And my back is better than it has been in 18 years!! Praise God. I don’t have constant pain anymore. Dion you might not know that what you do touches people! But it does! I just want to thank you. I have been doing your daily devotions for a couple years. It’s how I start every single day. I don’t often go to your site but that morning changed me! Just wanted to tell you! Praise God for your ministry!


• Scott’s dad heard Dion’s reading he wrote for the memorial - he was behind me/ he wept - he hadn’t been in a church in 40 years-he said your writing for the memorial made him believe in God and feel his presence immediately and he asked right there in that little church for prayer!
