Camp Meeting '07 and Great Weekend!

This passed week was wonderful! We had our Texas District Camp Meeting and it was the best we have had in awhile. The preaching by Bro. Ron Mullings, (California) Bro. David T. Elms, (Florida) and Bro. Paul Mooney, (Inidana) was wonderful! Every message I heard touched my mind and heart. On Friday night was crusade and Bro. Greg Godwin preached the message and it was interpreted for the spanish speaking people by Bro. Drost. At the end of the service there had been 246 people receive the gift of the Holy Ghost! The Holy Ghost was falling all around and while people received their personal Pentecost it sounded like a "count down"! It was almost continuous! Then, to make it even more special, our little Alayna Joy (4 years old) received the Holy Ghost!!!! It was wonderful! She came up to me and I asked her if she had received the Holy Ghost and she said, "Yes". I asked her how she knew she had received it, and her answer was so cute. She said, "Because I felt God's words come up in my throat!" She is so precious! Mandy asked her a lot of questions the next day and she answered everyone of them "right". She told Mandy that she "said God's words"! There is no doubt that she received the greatest gift anyone could ever receive! Also, Haiden, (8 years old) a boy from our church, received the Holy Ghost a few minutes before Alayna did. The wonderful thing about children receiving God at an early age is that they have a lifetime to serve Him! It was wonderful being in the presence of God in the services. Sis. Dedie Cooley was the Music Coordinator for the week and if you know her you KNOW the music was incredible! She did a great job! She worked so hard. It seemed like she was always at the keyboard going through songs with the musicians and singers. It definitely made the difference! We came home to a wonderful move of God this weekend. Bro. and Sis. Mullings were our special guests, and he definitely blessed out church with his ministry! The messages were powerful and ordained by God. I cannot tell you what the message he preached on Sunday night did for me. You need to listen to it on LifeTab.org. The title is: "My Faith Fights for Me". WOW! I know you will be blessed when you listen. We had a wonderful time. There is nothing like having "old friends" to visit with. We enjoyed a time of fellowship today, also. It was hard to say "goodbye", but we have great memories of this weekend. I trust you are all having a wonderful summer. I've missed blogging, but I haven't been where I could be "online". It's good being home! (I will add a slideshow sometime this week.)
