FOREWARD

On the next day much people that were come to the feast,
when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet Him,

and cried, “HOSANNA”: Blessed is the King of Israel that
cometh in the name of the Lord.

John 12:12-13 KJV

Hosea 4:6
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I
will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law
of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

Concept Paper

“Hosanna” is one of the many Programs housed under Ana Adonai Hosanna International
Ministries, Inc., (hereinafter “Hosanna”) Hosanna is the actual academic portion, the
implementation of faith based Academic Institutions. Same will provide the law, prayer,
training, teachings and proper equipping of our children. Galatians 4:21 Tell me, ye that
desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law?

On January 12, 2007, in Hillsborough County, Florida a 7 year old boy was
arrested for throwing a back pack. According to the article the mother screamed “take
him”! The state attorney’s office decided not to charge him, despite his being handcuffed
and hauled off.

When 6-year-old Desre’e Watson threw a tantrum in her kindergarten

class a couple of weeks ago she could not have known that the full force of the
law would be brought down on her and that she would be carted off by the
police as a felon.

A 6 year old arrested in Central Florida-the article in part reads:” But that’s what
happened in this small, backward city in central Florida. According to the authorities,
there were no other options. “The student became violent,” said Frank Mercurio, the no-
nonsense chief of the Avon Park police. “She was yelling, screaming — just being
uncontrollable. Defiant.” “But she was 6,” I said. The chief’s reply came faster than a
speeding bullet: “Do you think this is the first 6-year-old we’ve arrested?” The location
of the article is referenced below for those desiring to read it in its entirety. Apr 8, 2007
... BALTIMORE — Police arrested a 7-year-old boy, handcuffed him and hauled
him down ... Imagine, a six-year old throwing a tantrum in school. ...

 Throughout the United States, we are losing our children at an alarming rate. On
April 14, 2008, I attended a conference in North Carolina and two weeks later in South
Carolina. We came together as one; to discuss the crisis of our children that enter in the
department of corrections as early as the age of 6. The meeting was hosted and attended
by Pastors from around the country. After collaboration and sharing of thoughts and
ideas we concluded that we had all better do something swiftly. So, each of us have
returned to our communities in agreement to stick together and be effective and
supportive of one another as the body of Christ. We accepted responsibility as our
brother’s keepers and have since returned to our respective communities, hopeful,
communicating and collaborating.

Within the last week, one of the pastors notified me that he had two children
under the age of 7 expelled. It was requested that I come expeditiously for prayer and
guidance. At the meeting, we gathered to discuss the building of an alternative school for
elementary students and/or the implementation of programs to help the families cope with
the problems plaguing these minors. According to my colleagues, in South Carolina, if a
child is expelled three times or more (regardless of sex or age) the child is never to return
to the public school system. As stated in the opening paragraph, this problem is not
simply confined to Hillsborough County, Florida but extends to other states as well. The
sad realities depicted here are all too common place. The painful part is that one was
expelled for being improperly dressed and the other asked a girl for a kiss. Without
sounding opinionated or judgmental based on the age of the 2 boys, it appears that their
parents were or should have been held accountable for their actions.

For purposes such as this or similar to this, in the state of Florida there exists 26
Juvenile Detention Centers and 118 juvenile residential and correctional facilities, boot
camps or halfway houses, youth academy’s, juvenile correctional facility, juvenile
prison, serious habitual offender program, project step, Eckerd challenge and a variety of
other euphemisms for “baby jail.” In accordance to state law the classification varies
from low risk to maximum risk residential; with the children being assessed for a
maximum of 30 days. After such time their fate will be determined.

It is impossible to work with a problem without considering the source or the root.
Of course, there are times when punishment is warranted, especially for heinous crimes
such as murder, armed robbery, assault, carjacking or something as horrifying as a home
invasion. Then there are times when incarceration is just plain wrong. Too often, parents
feel overwhelmed and all too often rely on either the church, school or someone else to
provide structuring and rearing of their child. Hosanna’s intent is to empower the youth
and families. One of the means that this can be accomplished is through the building of a
team of crusaders, WE NEED ALL THE HELP WE CAN GET TO ACCOMPLISH THIS
ALL IMPORTANT TASK; your prayers, ideas (how to maximize our effectiveness,
recruiting, assistance, skills and most importantly your time and talent).
