ELDER C. SCRUSE - HARTFORD COUNTY
MENTOR - PREACHER - TEACHER & CERTIFIED CHAPLAIN
Elder C. Scruse is in her late eighties now (a widow) and still full of fire serving the Lord! She serves God in many ways. She is a spiritual mentor/mother to many people. God empowers Elder Scruse to preach and teach. She served the Lord through prison ministry over 30 years, convalescent homes; and out on the streets in California and Connecticut. She is a prayer intercessor and warrior in person and on prayer lines. Elder Scruse has a powerful testimony of her previous lifestyle and health testimony. She just keeps on running for the Lord! Praise God and we are grateful for her and love her dearly!

4 Even to your old age I am He, And even to your advanced old age I will carry you!
I have made you, and I will carry you; Be assured I will carry you and I will save you.
The list of thanks is long! We first thank God for taking care of us continually. We thank Him for all of the people who have prayed for our personal lives and family. We thank those who specifically prayed for our marriage to remain strong. We thank the different people who brought food and supplies to our home at different times. We thank those who have attended different places that we have gone to preach and teach. We thank God for the different small group gatherings and prayer meetings that we led and were invited to attend! We thank God for being able to marry different people and walk them through marriage issues. We thank God for the other ministries that we assisted along the way and the information that we learned. We do not have enough thanks to God and to the people that He always sends our way right on time! We thank God for the open doors, closed doors and the tests and trials of faith over the years. We thank God for continued strength through recent health issues and other challenges that we face. Thanks to our personal prayer warriors; who are lifting us up before God every day as God continues to lead our lives. We thank you for the prayers regarding our upcoming special assignment from God for 2026. We thank God for being able to freely serve His people and for Him taking care of all of our needs even through all of the tears these many years. Amen
Mantwan and Denise Thomas - God's Special Messengers
Has God chosen you to be a mentor for others? If God is using you in any mentorship capacity be humbled and grateful. Speak into the lives of the people you mentor as often as possible. Guide them according to the Bible with love, strength and humility before God. Believers in Christ are placed in areas of mentorship across the board in society. Your may be a spiritual leader who mentors others. Maybe you own a Christian faith-based business. Are you the leader of a youth group, men's group or women's group? Since God gives Believers in Christ different spiritual gifts; He expects us to use our gifts to serve others. Thank God for your mentorship roles as you love, guide, counsel; pray and advise others. Make sure that you have a mentor as well who can pour encouragement back into your life as you give out more. Be blessed with God's success while mentoring. Amen
1 Peter 4:10 Amplified Bible 10 Just as each one of you has received a special gift [a spiritual talent, an ability graciously given by God], employ it in serving one another as [is appropriate for] good stewards of God’s multi-faceted grace [faithfully using the diverse, varied gifts and abilities granted to Christians by God’s unmerited favor].
