We hope you and your loved ones are well, and enjoying the blessings of the season–celebrating our Savior’s birth.

It has been a few months since we last connected, and we’re grateful for your prayers and encouragement during this time of change in our lives. We would like to thank many of you who reached out to us through emails and personal cards to express your love and support. Some of you know that Dale experienced a serious injury in August. While that was difficult, God has been faithful in guiding us through that challenge successfully. Satan never stops attacking–And God never stops providing victory to those who have faith and trust in Him.

We understand there are questions regarding why we have been so silent the last few months. There have been some big changes, and it has required some time for us to navigate through them. Below is our update:

Regarding Dale Black Ministries: Because of what is now required to adhere to the rules of tax-exempt status—after much prayer and discernment—our board voted to dissolve our 501c3 tax-exempt ministry organization. After 43 years of wonderful and fruitful ministry, this organization was officially closed at the end of June 2024. However, do not think for a moment that we are quitting or retiring. There is however, change.

As the corporate church becomes more compromised, and the government puts more ungodly conditions on the non-profit organizations, we are finding there is little room for faithful teaching. It has become more and more difficult for us spiritually, emotionally and financially to continue without compromising—which we will not do. Doors have closed for us on social media platforms and there have been recurring serious threats coming against us if we do not comply with new government statutes—which are illegal in every state. We have had to ask ourselves…what are we willing to give our lives for? These are unprecedented days.

We are filled with expectation of what the Lord has in store for the next season of our lives. And He is the One guiding us. We will do our best in this letter to share (at least in part) why this change has occurred and what the next season of our lives will include. We do believe we are living in the last of the end times, so it is not surprising that so much is happening so quickly and with such urgency.

What we can say—and want to thank the Lord Jesus for—is that for more than four decades, Eagle International Ministries, Inc. (dba Dale Black Ministries) has been a vessel of God’s love and grace, touching countless lives across more than 50 countries. Through preaching, sharing testimonies, showing the Jesus film, leading tens of thousands to Jesus through street evangelism, ministering with food, medical supplies and tangible gifts of compassion—your partnership has helped to bring in a great harvest.

Through the ministry organization and spiritual efforts, millions have been transformed through God’s Living Word and the gospel message of salvation through Jesus. The name of Jesus has been lifted up to tens of millions, and the results are still growing. In addition, several churches and an orphanage were built, transforming lives and communities in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Europe, Russia, the Middle East, as well as Central and South America.

Thanks to God we’ve witnessed miracles and seen lives spiritually reborn, and many healed, by the power of Jesus Christ. Your support and faithfulness have been instrumental in advancing God’s Kingdom—and for this, we praise the Lord and thank you for your partnership in reaping spiritual fruit.

Regarding our New Direction: When God allows a door to close, He always opens another. He has given us clear leading to write and publish books to strengthen the followers of Jesus and help to lead the unsaved into salvation. We are following the Holy Spirit’s calling, to take what He has taught us over a lifetime… and share with any who will read and listen through print and audio books.

To write and teach uncompromisingly, it is necessary that we become our own publisher. There is no longer any other way to write books without censorship—which is occurring even through some of the so-called “Christian” publishers. In summary, we have started a new publishing company and are currently working to publish a book series called: Messages From Heaven.

The first book of the new series is called Atomic Faith – Getting Your Prayers Answered. The book is already written and we believe it is a “life-changer.” Twenty chapters, filled with inspiring stories that illustrate and teach how faith works, how to get your prayers answered, how God heals, and so much more.

Our prayer is that God will provide the means for Atomic Faith to be available in early 2025. All of the books in this series will be foundational for any Christian who wants to take their spiritual life to the next level. These messages will introduce those who are seeking to the One True God–the One Jesus represented in the gospels—as a miracle working God. The various subjects will include: faith, healing, Holy Spirit, demons, spiritual warfare, last days prophecy, and more. All books are being written in a non-religious, easy to understand, powerful way that is faithful to Scripture. Each book will be filled with real life stories—to inspire and illustration each subject in a real-world setting.

Our website is being gradually changed to accommodate the new business and goals. And both of us will have new videos on a YouTube Channel in the coming months. We sense the urgency of time and change, and know that we… “must work while it is day” (John 9:4).

Please pray for us as we work to fulfil God’s assignment in this new season. Your offerings are still needed and welcomed as we personally do not have the resources to complete this task—but we know that if God has called us, He will provide. Although we are no longer a tax-exempt organization, this current book series is still a ministry in the very truest sense of the word. Please visit our website at: CaptDaleBlack.com.

We may be the “underdog” in this industry–the “David against Goliath.” But we know that God is “… able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us” (Ephesians 3:20). And He is the One who called us. Therefore, we have absolute confidence in His ability to provide what is needed. Would you pray about being a part of His answer?

“You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you” (John 15:16).

We love and appreciate you. We cherish your friendship, and trust God will continue to guide your steps as you faithfully follow Him. You are a cherished member of God’s spiritual family and are in our prayers with deep gratitude and love.

Together, we can continue to spread God’s love and uncompromising truth to a world that desperately needs hope. To contribute toward the Messages From Heaven Book Series Project, please visit our website at: CaptDaleBlack.com.

We pray you have a blessed Christmas and experience the presence and love of Jesus Christ in your life fully,

Dale and Paula Black
