Press Release Author = Fred Raynaud, Reflection Publications

Industry = Small Business

Press Release Summary = Something undeniable is taking place today. God is at work
- literally. Christians are beginning to impact their workplaces spiritually. Even
the mainstream media has noticed, with articles appearing in the New York Times, LA
Times, CNBC, and many other national media outlets. Consider the following....

July 2001, Fortune magazine - God and Business cover story
November 1999, BusinessWeek magazine - "Spirituality in the Workplace"
Jan/Feb 2003 New Man magazine, faith and work movement
January and March issues, 2003 Business Reform magazine, \"God in the Workplace\"

Press Release Body = Is this a fad... or is it a genuine move of God? Fred Raynaud
believes it is a genuine move of God. After the loss of his son, Fred Raynaud sought
the Lord for a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ and started sharing his faith
with his co-workers. Suddenly, Fred found himself surrounded with folks desiring
prayer, he stated, "Many of our members here in Tampa, are hispanic..., and my
Spanish isn't that great. They would come to me at work asking for prayer. So there
we stood, in the storeroom, 20 of us deep, all hand in hand.... As I prayed, I knew
that there was a language barrier, but then I saw it. The Holy Spirit descended upon
these saints of the Most High, and the tears began to flow. What I discovered was,
in-spite of myself, Jesus was there, powerfully. It's all about Jesus!"

What started out as a small revival in his kitchen, with more than 28 people coming
to the Lord, has blossomed into an organization that stretches across the globe. The
International Association of Cooks for Christ (IACFC), an international membership
of cooks, chefs, and hospitality workers stretches from Florida to India, Spain to
Australia, and across the USA.
Fred Raynaud, in his new book, "Reflections from the Kitchen, cooking with Holy
Fire," pours out his heart about faith and life, touching on everything from revival
to the gospel revealed in the recipe for Hollandaise sauce.

\"Reflections\" is not a cookbook. There are no recipes between its pages. What you
will find is a look at Christ and His glory through the lens of the kitchen. The
book takes you on a journey behind the scenes of the kitchen and reflects Christ in
the day-to-day activities of working and worshiping within the \"Marketplace.\" It is
a buffet table full of little morsels - chapters to cause you to ponder upon the
richness of all that Christ is, as seen through the eyes of a Chef.

"I am convinced that painted across the canvas of every occupation, task, and job,
you will see the reflection of Jesus sprinkled throughout. No matter what we do or
how big, or small it seems - Jesus is waiting to reveal Himself to us - all we have
to do is open the eyes of our hearts and the ears of our understanding, and listen
to the whisper of the Holy Spirit as He points to the reflection of Jesus within our
craft." - Fred Raynaud
