I personally know the story behind the 03/03/16 and 01/31/16 and they are one and the same. Carl went to work for that man but found his equipment so dangerous to him and others property that he had to quit because they would not fix the equipment. They have a power washing business cleaning parking lots and fuel stations. They bind the trigger to stay on with up to 5000 lbs pressure. If handler trips or gets tired at 2-5 am, it can be fatal. The man just wanted cheep labor and no insurance reiability.
Theses people are scammers. I know them personally and they are not a ministry despite the fact that they have registered themselves as one. They minister to no one. they have no following. They are smooth talkers who ingratiate themselves into the lives of good people, presenting themselves as ministers of God when in reality there are wolves in sheeps clothing. They use God's name to cloak their true intent. To con/scam people. I know they have been offered work and refuse it. They want someone else to house them, feed them, donate to their so called ministry (which they are in name only verifiable by incorporation papers, which any body can file if the want to for a couple hundred dollars). Any money given to this so called ministry is used to feed themselves and no one else. His story that he post online at GoFundMe is that he was wrongly accused of evading arrest, that he was wrongly arrested, that he was tortured in prison, etc. Is a lie. He did evade arrest, because he has no drivers license, his car tags are out of date and not from the state he lives in so he uses mud to dirty them. He was duly, and rightfully convicted,and he did spend time in jail, with early probation for good behavior. He was NOT tortured in any way and in fact they tried to accommodate his kosher eating requirements. I won't belabor the point. Don't waste you well earned money to feed this con game family.
By their own admission, this is NOT a legally recognized non-profit. Yet posts are made requesting a free vehicle, stating the donation would be tax deductible. Makes one question...
Karl and Debbie have a calling from Yahweh to help those with healthcare, spiritual or emotional needs. They are very knowledgeable in preventative healthcare, overall health and wellness, and extremely insightful to those who want to learn about the benefits of eating raw. They have a deep understanding of Scriptures, Hebraic roots, and have a love for the Father and the body of Messiah.
They had put me on a lifestyle plan that had me incorporate more raw foods into my diet, encouraged me to read scriptures and pray and as a result of their ministry I have been living a more abundant life.
I have donated--sowed into their ministry knowing that the monies used are for the Kingdom as they are one of the few people I have met in my 42 years (pastors included) that are COMPLETELY yielded to the will of the Father. They are modern day Levites.
If you need advice on any health related matter, disease, nutrition, the scriptures, spiritual warfare or just want to be discipled you must meet Karl and Debbie.
They are one of the remnants..modern day Noahs, who walk on the narrow path.

Dear Karma2m, Ponderosa Serenity Ministries (PSM) is a Biblically Legal Ministry which does not seek it status with the secular government (Lev 18:3) but receives its authority through Christ (Matthew 28: 19-20 “Therefore, go and make taught ones of all the nations, immersing them in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Set-apart Spirit, teaching them to guard all that I have commanded you." Therefore, there is no requirement for PSM to receive any recognition nor apply for any through the US or any STATE government (26 USC 508). The Church, by its very nature, is tax exceptioned and its donors may deduct whatever it gives to this ministry (This charitable church ministry is not for profit and maintains its nontaxable status consistent with 26 U.S.C. 508 (c)(1)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code with respect to section 501(c)(3).) Karma2m, thank you for your skepticism and we hope this helps your concerns.
