Because of the Times 2007

It's so good to be home!!! What an awesome time we had at BOTT in Alexandria, LA. Thanks, Gene, for checking up on us to see if we were okay. It's nice to be missed!

I was wondering if we were going to be able to go, but inspite of the weather, we made it down there safely and back. It didn't ice over here until we had already left.

We were able to attend their workshops on Tuesday, and then the services through Thursday night. There is no way to describe God's presence that was there. The shouting and dancing were wonderful, but there was a much deeper undercurrent of His presence than I have ever felt before. My little brain cannot even begin to desribe our infinite God! The central message that God seemed to want to convey to all who were there, was that we the church must move to a higher level in Him if we desire to see a return to the Apostolic power of the New Testament Church.

They put on a banquet for the foreign and home missionaries on Wednesday afternoon, after the services. It was so nice, and they outdid themselves with the food and the personal service. We were presented handkerchiefs that had been embroidered by a lady in their church, and then prayed over by Bro. G.A. Mangun (they said he spent several days in prayer over them). We sat at a table with three other couples. They were all from up north. It's great to be able to be around others who are in the same "boat" that you are. We so enjoyed ourselves.




It was great to be able to go, but I am so looking forward to crawling into my own bed tonight. Maybe it's age and maybe it's not, but there is no motel bed that even comes close to comparing to your own!
