I usually don't post stuff like this, so if the admins can make a exception I appreciate it.
James Burris was just ordained in the UPCI as a evangelist this past week. He is based outta Life Tab in Houston and travels about 90% of the year. He is just breaking out to where he is getting booked solid and consistently. He just served the past few weeks at Bro. Rhodus church in Indiana and they had over 70 first time guests and had 18 baptized and 15 with the Holy Spirit... and this church is a brand new church without any manpower... they pretty much went out there and did it cold. Which is amazing for a tiny new independent Apostolic church with little support.

I have been out with James a few times, and spent quite a bit of time with him at a big Tim Downs outreach in Galveston where he helped me learn more about face to face evangelism ... even though I am not UPCI anymore ... I can say he is a brother and "good folk". He flat out works when he is out there and drops thousands of door hangers, flyers, and compels folks to come and be baptized/repent on the spot. He would be as big a asset in a UPCI work as he would in a independent work and seems to play nice with everyone in case anyone has any worries in that department
If you could use a up and coming evangelist like that in your church for a week or two I would like for you to check him out. At the very least friend him on facebook and keep up with the exciting things he is doing.

Theres enough negative stuff about folks, I thought I would take a moment and give props to a UPCI brother who is working hard to make it happen for the kingdom and living the sacrificial lifestyle on the evangelistic field.
