What a blessing you were to us, as we know you have been to so many others. Your insights were such a help as we toured the museum. May God lead you as you strive to serve Him with all of your energy! We know that He is using you in ways we cannot imagine. Again, thank you and may God bless you in every aspect of your lives.

Sue and Frank were very welcoming and keen to share their knowledge of the museum and their love for God and His Word. My son Joshua (10 years) and I traveled from New Zealand to visit the museum and boy are we glad that we had the opportunity. The Museum exhibits are first-class, and the presentation of the Biblical account of creation, the fall, flood, etc has empowered us both to be able to share with others. I greatly appreciate Frank sharing his faith – boldly. Something I take away and wish to do myself. To have had the opportunity to watch the many creation DVD’s and to be able hear Frank clarify and explain in a way that I could understand (ie. I didn’t have to have a theological or scientific degree) is worth more than I can say. Frank – thank you. Thank you for your love of the Lord, and your desire for all to know without doubt that God is the creator, as His Word says. Thank you Sue and Frank for welcoming us to your home and sharing. God has certainly blessed us through you, and that blessing does not stop with us as we share with those we come in contact with. Since coming back home (this is our third week back) Joshua and I have had many opportunities to share with family and friends about the CM and all that we learned and saw. The resources that we bought back with us have been put into good use, and already our children’s ministry are using the set of children’s questions and answers books. I believe that many (too many) Christians, like myself, are scared that we don’t have the answers or words to be able to defend/explain/refute the worldviews of evolution etc. But I now know that with the right resources/support information we can stand boldly and proclaim the creation, fall, flood etc. God has certainly used our weekend with you and Sue, seeing the DVD’s you had, listening to you share, soaking up all the Museum has to offer to open our eyes to His truth and provided a way for us to share this with others. With much thanks and very warm regards to you and your family. God bless your ministry. Erin and Joshua Wellington, New Zealand Hi Frank & Sue,

Our lives will never be the same as they were before visiting the Creation Museum, Troy's Creation Ministry, and Frank and Sue Zitzman. I know that sounds dramatic, but it’s true. First of all, we left so encouraged in our faith in Christ and in the awesome power and goodness of our perfect, and almighty creator God. God was so good and gracious to us through the instruments of the Creation Museum and your ministry. We know that it was no coincidence that we ended up staying at Troy's Creation Ministry, and believe that God truly does work things out perfectly for the good of those that love Him. Second, we went home with a renewed hope regarding the Autism diagnosis of our son Adam. After reviewing the information you sent us and reading some testimonies of those that had seen results, we realized that we owed it to our son Adam to at least try the Gluten Free Casein Free diet to see if it could improve his life. We returned home Tuesday afternoon (on the heels of an ice storm), and after a quick unpacking and reunion with our two dogs, Pete and I headed off to the grocery store to begin the GFCF diet. We also managed to pick up some "shake-making" items. We stopped to pick up the kids from Grandma's house, where we borrowed her 1970s Harvest Gold Osterizer--yes, that would be a BLENDER, Frank, nothing compared to your super mixer, but so far it’s doing its job well ; ) That evening we were immediately encouraged by the fact that Adam was willing to drink both Soy Milk and Rice Milk--Did I mention that he is EXTREMELY difficult to convince to try anything new. We've settled on Soy for now and we are already seeing results. We eliminated all gluten and dairy and were able to find many good substitutes for what he usually eats. For two days he was extremely moody and woke up a couple times in the night (unusual)--I figure this was either withdrawal symptoms, or extreme exhaustion from our trip, but probably a bit of both. However, today is Saturday and 5 days into the diet and we are seeing MANY, MANY positive changes including less climbing & jumping and other self-stimulating behavior, more eye-contact, more alertness, more responsiveness when I request his attention, more ability to follow directions, more frequent high-structured sentences, more verbal interaction, more spontaneous--relevant speech, more even temperament, and more appropriate response to attempts to discipline. He has not been "circling" the table when eating, and has been sitting longer. Today, he was able to eat his whole plate with a fork. He spent time and grandma's and grandpa's tonight, and they were in tears over the positive changes they were seeing. In short, we are never going back! I will continue to update you on his progress. Please share this with your daughter who studies autism, and anyone else that it would benefit. Thank you, Frank, for the recipes. After seeing them, I was happy to find that we had pretty much figured it out. We have been drinking shakes since Tuesday night also. We are both hoping to try the Juice Plus very soon, once we've settled into the GFCF diet (we are trying to get everyone on it as much as possible). It definitely means an increase in our already tight grocery budget. It will require faith and an adjustment in financial priorities, but we have no doubt that it is already and will continue to pay off. I would really like to try the gummies for the kids asap also. This is getting long, so I'll stop here, but thank you again for the many ways you have ministered to our family. We have reviewed the "Living After the Loss" material--awesome message! I didn't get to share it, but my sister lost her son, my nephew Tyler almost 4 years ago--he was 8 years-old--in a car accident. I know she is still struggling to live after her loss, and I am sure she is not saved, though she knows there is a God. Please remember and pray for her salvation and also the salvation of her family--her name is Crystal Balcsik, her husband is Andy, and their other son Christopher (16 years-old). None of them are living in Christ, who alone can comfort and heal them. With much gratitude and love in Christ, Pete and Candy Hi Frank and Sue,

We were shown around the museum, chatted 'til late in the evening (Frank's as good a chinwager as I am, I've met my match!), watched great creation related videos, and were nourished by Frank's super spinach shakes (good tucker mate!) We came as strangers and left as friends. They made us feel like one of the family. They have an awesome call of God and a tremendous ministry. They encouraged us to be bolder in our walk with the Lord and it was as Proverbs describes 'as iron sharpens iron'. Frank's a fair dinkum bloke and Sue's a bonzer sheila and we look forward to seeing them on our next walkabout. We had such a wonderful time with Frank and Sue.

Many were challanged and even question their salvation (wide road) and others challanged to learn God's Word better, etc. - Sue's testimony hit several women and Frank’s testimony was also very powerful. One of the ladies who came only to the church service stopped me after you spoke and said something like "isn't this exactly what we've been covering in class?!! God is bringing it to us on so many levels - I think we need to get this!!!!!" God is so amazing as we see His hand bring together the "puzzle pieces" in our lives to teach us and grow us and equip us. We had been praying for you for weeks that God would use you in what we need here, and the things you said echoed so much of what we've been trying to teach - but coming from you brought a depth and a reality. Sue's testimony was a repeat of a conversation that one of the women had had with her husband right before coming to hear you! She had told him that salvation is more than coming to church or saying you believe. That there is a wide road and a narrow road and many on the wide road believe they are saved and are not. They came, and Sue ditto'ed all she had told him! PTL. Last week, her husband asked Jim (my husband) to go out to eat with him. He there, with tears, told Jim that he doesn't think he is saved and wanted to know how he could know for sure. PTL again! One lady who came works in a funeral home and ministers to people there. She has taken several copies of your CD's and is going to use them to council and encourage when she can. She is coming to class and becoming grounded in God's Word and this is an avenue for her to share her faith (and yours as well). One lady came up to me after class this past Wednesday and disagreed with some things you had said. She was quite angry and moved to tears. As I explained the truth of God's Word and how what you shared lined up with that truth, rather than what we have been deceived into believing in our 'American easy believeism christian culture', she said she had much to think about. When she left me, she went to Judy and told her that now she is not sure she is saved. All we've been learning from God's Word and all you shared, and now me confirming it, has left her questioning - a great place to begin. I love it when God removes all our securities and false hopes, and 'pulls the rug out from under us' so that we can finally come to Him His way. PTL. Please pray. The enemy hates it when we get to this point. Judy came over last night and she is going to find John MacArthurs CD's that Sue was talking about. I want copies of that to give to the women when needed. So see, your ministry ripples here in Michigan. One lady is journaling what she is learning from God's Word, and is using your SCULPT outline to help her focus on her growth. She is a baby Christian, but is determined to grow. One lady shared that your ability to forgive has had a huge effect and impact on her.

I would say that the impact of their message is not centered on the loss of their son, Troy - nor even in their God-centered reaction to that loss (although both these aspects touch us and challange us at a deep level). Their impact for Christ is in the fact that their foundation in the truth of God and His Word was well established in knowledge and obedience long before the storms of life came. Their steadfastness through the storm is a result of decisions and committments and a life lived centered on the Lord. The fact that they have stood firm through the storm is the reason for their ministry, but not it's source. Frank and Sue are ordinary-everyday people who serve an extrodinary God. It is a blessing to hear Frank's uncompromising challange to us as well as to hear the powerful testimonies both Frank and Sue shared of God's amazing grace in bringing each of them from their wrong thinking to a saving faith in the Lord.

We were all very blessed by your hospitality and encouraged by your passion for God and His Gospel message! I listened to Frank’s message on Living After the Loss concerning the death of the Zitzman’s youngest son, Troy, and have been inspired by their godly example of how a Christian may sorrow because the loss of a loved one but not despair or become angry with God. I now see death and suffering as yet another starting place for evangelism! Thank you for the encouragement and all of the great (healthy and nutritious) food! Thank you Frank and Sue for opening up your home to us when we visited the Creation Museum. We were all very blessed by your hospitality and encouraged by your passion for God and His Gospel message!
