In The Beginning
I truly believe God was preparing me for this ministry from the moment I
accepted Christ as my Savior on March 4, 1967. I was working at The American
Publishing Company as a layout and design artist when a new pastor in our area
invited me to a Word of Life Youth Rally at Brookdale Baptist Church in
Bloomfield, N.J. That Night I accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Savior. I
knew I needed to be able to tell others about Jesus Christ. With the help of that
Pastor, James Gent, I was enrolled In Tennessee Temple Bible School, College
and Temple Baptist Theological Seminary in less then 90 days. I Studied there
until August of 1970.

The Years of Preparation for this Ministry
In September of 1970 , the Lord led me to Child Evangelism Fellowship Institute in Muskegon, Michigan
where I learned about Story Telling And Flannel Graph , Radio Drama, and even Television Production
with "The Tree House Club" starring Earl the purple squirrel. Odd, yes, but God had a plan for my life.
I just didn't know it yet. At the completion of my training, I accepted the call as Passaic County director of
Child Evangelism Fellowship, where God used me as the youngest director in the history of Child
Evangelism Fellowship, to do a remarkable work with some remarkably talented teenagers as summer
missionaries. One of those teenagers was George W. Wiesner, III, now known as the world famous
organist of Radio City Music Hall for over 25 yrs. During that first summer, George would be used by
God to write and perform the musical background for a story God had me write, "The Ballad of Two
Brothers", which was recorded by Family Radio for Word Record Co. , and played on Family Radio
thoughout the United States, in 1971.

| The why and how God led us to this ministry |
| A service ministry Serving Christ through the Education, Spiritual Care, Counseling and The Arts |
God's Leading is Never by Accident
God has lead so clearly since the beginning of this ministry that we know that He is going to use it for His
purpose to reach the lost for the Kingdom of God, and to be used to call many Christians into service for His
Kingdom, both in and out of their local churches. We covet your prayers and support for the arts that God
has used throughout the years to serve Him. From Handel and List to George Wiesner and Fred Davies.
From Michelangelo to Thomas Kinkade to David Mitchell. From the lightheartedness of the prophets of old
to the comic wit of a Mark Lowry. All of the arts remember from music and dance to Cooking and comedy
are arts given to us to use for the Glory of God. In 2009 God turned another milestone with Splendor
Ministry leading us into hospitals and nursing and assisted living facilities, Ministering and designing
Chapels, Web sites, and working with more then 55 hospitals in 17 stats with the HMA Corporation. Have
you used your art gift for His Glory today?
Our 2009/2010 Governing Board
I rejoice that Marlene Lewis serves as our President/Treasurer, Janet Rae Donnelly as our Vice
President/Secretary, and Suzanne Rae McCormick, Arts Consultant, Rev. John Beward, Rev. Jay Brigham,
Spiritual Advisors, Gerald Blake and Raymond Wallace Board Members.
Please pray for our board that God will lead us in all our endeavors.

My freshmen year working for the school I was assigned
to the Charles F. Weigle Music Building, the writer of great songs like "No-one
Ever Cared For Me Like Jesus" and "A Garden of Roses is Jesus". You can't
be sharing the testimony of a blessed man of God like that to visitors and
students without it influencing your life, so music became a great part of my
Christian Service.

Then in 1973 Calvary Bible Church in West Milferd, N.J. Called me as youth director and we did living
dramas including "The Funeral of "I. Will Later" and "The Church In The Year 2525", which God used
to win hundreds of teens and adults to a saving knowledge of The Lord Jesus Christ. While in the
Northeast I also ministered with my father (Captain KEN DO) I can do all things through Christ. In the
New York New Jersey area.
Then in 1976 I was hired by The Walt Disney World Co. as a Voice for the Company. Giving me the
privilege to sing for 25 years in the Cast Candle Light Choir. I transferred into Retail Store design, and
after September 11, 2001 moved to Security operations.
In 1994 we started Splendor Ministries as a part time ministry to help Performers and churches as we
could, and through the years it has developed to the point where it is today. We now have a board of
directors, assets and even our own Chapel with weekly services. To God Be The Glory!!
