It ‘s been unseeingly humid down here lately. We even had a
thunderstorm, reminding me of Mississippi…………..the hot summer rains
that arrive from a gunmetal sky and drench the red delta dirt of my
childhood visits to “home”. Those rains inevitably caused the old
white men in the Kroger’s to fret and grumble if the cotton had yet to
be picked up. But that’s another story. For some reason I always
thought of Mississippi as home, even though at an early age I was
uprooted and transported to California. In California, it seems that
no one has roots there, that everyone originated from somewhere else.
I ‘ve never felt entirely comfortable calling it “home.” And so.
But here I am completing my 16th unlikely year in the unlikely
environs of Baja California Mexico.
Who’d of ever thought I’d wind up here…….and call it “home?”
Back to the weather, though. It had me feeling a bit homesick and out
of sorts………………….but the clouds broke around 5:30 and the air brought
the smell and chill of the ocean so close by. I decided to say
“forget it, for now” and procrastinate on gathering the receipts for
last month for which my crazy bi-polar accountant is hounding me
already, and to sit on the balcony with little green coca-cola.
No sooner than I arranged myself on a lounge chair with my icy soda,
than I see puffs of dirt on the trail thru the weeds from the
cuarteria to the mission. Voices carry thru the now brisk air, and
little ones start appearing getting larger and larger as they
approach. Still most are only about 3 feet tall. It’s “toddler’s hour”
when the littleun’s come to get their 2 liters of water. At the end of
the line is a bigger one though.
I cant tell who it is , just another brown round face in the setting
sun, but as the silhouette nears a bright white smile appears. Big
white teeth and dinner-plate eyes. It’s Aquilino. I am trying to
figure why the big smile which is visible for some 400
yards…………….hmmmm.
As he gets below the balcony, I’m bursting with questions. (It’s been
a slow day at the mission, and I’m a Mexican neighbor now, and well,
we thrive on NEWS. Not CNN, or MSNBC, neither of which I get, but
neighborhood news. Who had a baby, why did the police come, who’s
arriving or leaving from or to Oaxaca……………….the lifeblood of a “slow”
day.
The news is actually minor so far. But I feed him a sandwich as he
regales me with tales of someone’s grandmother and his cousin (both
the same person, go figure but everyone but me is related) and I
continue to ply him with chips and half my soda to get the real source
of the smile on his dirty little face.
See I ‘ve learned that here nothing is fast or easy, watches are
scorned and dates not really applicable unless you own money and even
then, well , it’s Mexico, right? So I am impatiently playing patient
pastora, because this guy is just grinning like a madman.
Finally, I can’t hold it. “So Filli, (which is what everybody calls
Aquilino, only the Lord knows why, but no one in Mexico goes by their
birth name , but an “apodo” or nickname that has usually no bearing or
reason in it’s assignation). When I call him Filli, he gives me a sly
look. Like okay down to business.
“Hermana! They are back. THEY are back. The Ixpa’s. The funny people.”
And I am instantly hungry for details and so intrigued as he tells me
of two families who were moved OUT of the Camp to make way for these
curious Ixpa’s. They were here like 5 years ago. And Filli was totally
on love with the oldest Ixpa girl. Ayela.
The thing is tho that the Ixpa’s are not from Mexico. They are a part
of a Brazilian tribe, who somehow stole over Mexico’s Southern Border,
then got stuck in Puxtla, Oxa. Then got to know some triques and made
their way up here. Really rare and a bizarre group to the Mexican
Indians. An “exotic” people.
Filli and I bust open another Coke and reminisce to his 7th birthday
when this exotic group arrived. They are exotic, more so to me than
even the Zapotepos which rarely arrive from Guerrerro. They are so
otherworldly, like something from a National Geographic page as the
women go topless and bath in the open…………………….and the little boys wear
a little leather pouch around a strategic area, and even the big boys
revert to this on the days off. They will live in the Camp but apart
in their yurts, thee mud and stick huts that they are already
constructing…………(I sent Aquilino down with my camera tonight hopefully
he’ll have pics by manana. He ‘s on a secret correspondent’s
mission.)
So I look forward to seeing if they will remember me, if they are the
same families who were here years ago and a million other things.
There is a buzz of excitement as I now here other children telling
Frank downstairs that “they” are back.
I am blessed to live this excitement. But MOSTLY truly the blessing is
the smile on Filli’s face when he arrived. And the way he included ME
in the neighborhood excitement. Taunting me with his “knowledge” but I
m grateful that I have been accepted. Like the news arrived and it
needed to be delivered and though I am a foreigner, I am on the
“pipeline”. A neighbor. It is a privilege for which I thank Jesus.
For me it is a big deal to feel a PART of the community, not a visitor
but a member. It is the Gospel that has made us such for no other
glue exists between us but that we all BELIEVE in HIM.
Praise JESUS

Prayer
Faith will come as you hear from Him. the Prayer of faith is prayed once but the prayer of fellowship with Him and listening to His direction is continual . He is always speaking we just need to tune in to what He is saying. . I like to do it this way.
I say while in a quite place. The Lord loves me and wants me to know. Then I shut up and write down what I get impressed on my heart and mind. Then roll it over in your mind and see what the reply does for my clarity of direction , Try it
You Are a Giver
You Are a Giver
Luke 6:38 “give, and it will be given to you. they will pour into your lap a good measure—pressed down, shaken together, and running over. for by your standard of measure it will be measured to you in return.”
Jesus makes this statement of truth or reality. that if we give we will have it given to us. God made you to be a giver. Why did He do this . what is His purpose in creating you to be a giver?
You where formed or made a giver. You are one already. The challenge is are we functioning in what He created us to be.
Isa 44:24 thus says the LORD, your redeemer, and the one who formed you from the womb, “I, the LORD, am the maker of all things, stretching out the heavens by myself and spreading out the earth all alone, Jer 1:5 “before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you a prophet to the nations.”
Realize this : You are already formed as such. You only require activation.
You know if you get a credit card. you are already approved for a line of credit. It is yours. But you have to call and active it n order to receive the benefit.
He made you a giver. How do I know this?
Ge 1:26 ¶ then god said, “let us make man in our image, according to our likeness;
God is a giver: Joh 3:16 “for god so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
Ro 4:17 (as it is written, “A FATHER OF MANY NATIONS HAVE I MADE YOU”) in the presence of him whom he believed, even god, who gives life to the dead and calls into being that which does not exist.
What he can do a does is to tempt you that this Word is not real. he seeksYou do not have to do anything to become what He has made you you do have to do something to activate yourself.
Jas 2:20 but are you willing to recognize, you foolish fellow, that faith without works is useless?
Jas 2:26 for just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.
Your faith in who he made you to be activates you. Faith involves both words and deeds to be real faith.
To activate yourself as a giver you must give. The result is thatas a active giver you will have given to you. Now the enemy can not and is powerless to stop this universal law of giving to discourage you into not activating this reality.
hab 2:10 “you have devised a shameful thing for your house by cutting off many peoples; so you are sinning against yourself.
11 “surely the stone will cry out from the wall, and the rafter will answer it from the framework.
12 “woe to him who builds a city with bloodshed and founds a town with violence!
13 “is it not indeed from the LORD of hosts that peoples toil for fire, and nations grow weary for nothing?
gal 6:6 the one who is taught the word is to share all good things with the one who teaches him.
7 do not be deceived, god is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap.
8 for the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the spirit will from the spirit reap eternal life.
9 let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary.
10 so then, while we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who are of the household of the faith.
heb 12:3 for consider him who has endured such hostility by sinners against himself, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
I have observed that people who were once into giving soon cease in their giving and become cynical thus become inactive in their purpose in this life
The statment in Luke 6:38 about giving is preceded by Luke 6:20through verse 37. In our zeal to get people to give many time preachers fail to enlighten people of the whole scene. Jesus starts out revealing what we would call the negative circumstance of this anointing of giving.
Like 6:20 ¶ and turning his gaze toward his disciples, he began to say, “blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of god.
21 “blessed are you who hunger now, for you shall be satisfied. blessed are you who weep now, for you shall laugh.
22 “blessed are you when men hate you, and ostracize you, and insult you, and scorn your name as evil, for the sake of the son of man.
23 “be glad in that day and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven. for in the same way their fathers used to treat the prophets.
24 “but woe to you who are rich, for you are receiving your comfort in full.
25 “woe to you who are well-fed now, for you shall be hungry. woe to you who laugh now, for you shall mourn and weep.
26 “woe to you when all men speak well of you, for their fathers used to treat the false prophets in the same way.
27 ¶ “but I say to you who hear, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,
28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.
29 “whoever hits you on the cheek, offer him the other also; and whoever takes away your coat, do not withhold your shirt from him either.
30 “give to everyone who asks of you, and whoever takes away what is yours, do not demand it back.
31 “treat others the same way you want them to treat you.
38 “give, and it will be given to you. they will pour into your lap a good measure—pressed down, shaken together, and running over. for by your standard of measure it will be measured to you in return.”
Givers start out poor, hungry, sad, hated and persecuted. In other words we start out inactive and in the natural incapable of giving and being what He created us to be.
His reply to this is Luke 6:30 “give to everyone who asks of you, and whoever takes away what is yours, do not demand it back.31 “treat others the same way you want them to treat you.
Then He instructs us in the attitude and actions to maintain in order to continue your ministry of giving.
Luke 6: 32 “if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? for even sinners love those who love them.
33 “if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? for even sinners do the same.
34 “if you lend to those from whom you expect to receive, what credit is that to you? even sinners lend to sinners in order to receive back the same amount.
35 “but love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the most high; for he himself is kind to ungrateful and evil men.
36 “be merciful, just as your father is merciful.
37 ¶ “do not judge, and you will not be judged; and do not condemn, and you will not be condemned; pardon, and you will be pardoned.
The Three challenges to activating and maintaining your purpose n giving are.
1. Realize you are a giver ( I ask you to say this out load right noe) I am a Giver God made me a giver. I am not going to be one I am a giver.
2. Realize and refuse to allow your present circumstances to stop you from doing what you are. you are a giver so act on it give. Find something you have no matter how small and find someplace to give it. Remember whatever you sow you wil reap. If you sow money ,money will be reaped if you sow time, time will be reaped. kindness, kindness will be reaped. I remember one story of a woman who knitted blankets and gave them away. The lady died poor but upon her dead it was discovered in her room in a closet an abundance of blankets that people had given her. she died rich in blankets but poor in money. If only she had understood the law of sowing she could have had abundance of money.
3. Realize that your biggest challenge is keeping your attitude regarding love and forgiveness right. People you give to will probably not be the ones who give back in fact they may appear ungrateful and even hurt you. Your reward comes from God not people.It come through people. People are the channel not the source. People are the channel of God’s blessing but also the channel of the enemies discouragement. People like yourself can yield both to the spirit of God and the spirit of the enemy. Whoever you submit your self to you become a servant to. I admonish you submit yourself to the spirit of Life and be blessed.
Snakes on the Porch
Hey everybody!
First of all I must start out with a big PRAISE JESUS!!!
Yesterday morning I stepped out on to the back stairs to get some eggs for the kitchen’s meal ( a cake actually) and I leaned down to pick up my egg basket only to be BITTEN BY A RATTLESNAKE.
I immediately started to freak out. It was about 3 ft long and hand a grip on my right hand between my thumb and first finger, right in that meaty part of my hand. I slung it back and forth and hollered for Frank who was starting the truck. He didn’t hear me but Aquilino did and came running but when he saw what happened he was just mortified and stood still then started crying. I finally realized nobody was going to be arriving to get the hideous thing off me so I grabbed a machete Frank keeps by the door and whacked it in halves. It still didn’t let go! And I started kind of seeing pinpoints of light and getting ready to pass out. Frank then showed up and pried the snakes jaw off of me. We immediately started praying, and I mean I felt faith rise up in me like a wave because I think I knew that if the Lord didn’t intervene I was gonna be really sick or die. But I recalled how Jesus have us power over scorpions and snakes and started proclaiming that. Frank drug me inside and he sliced the wound and sucked out as much blood as he could and we kept praying.
After about 30 minutes, we were in the truck headed to town to get an anti venom shot. I was feeling cold and sweating and real nauseous. We got to Dr Vasquez’s office and Frank ran in and told them what had happened and that we had the snake in a bag in the truck,…………….THEY HAD NO ANTI VENOM. They called all the hospitals and none was available except one dose in Mexicali.
By then I had calmed down and we were praying with more peace. And i felt okay. Praise Jesus. We did order the anti venom but it would be 3 hours getting here so we knew we had to rely on the Lord.
I am so proud of My King and His Healing Power and Authority……………tonite I am fine, my hand IS sore and swollen, but not discolored and I have the anti venom here in our medicine bag. I never ended up using it.
GOD IS SO GOOD.
I am a little weak had a little nausea and dizziness but really no other symptoms. An dit was a great testimony! With Aquilino nd a few other kids seeing it happen word spread thru our area quickly and the indians started bringing me herbs and sticks and “curas” and I have been able to show them the snake pinned to the fence and my wound and tell them how Jesus healed me!
Pretty cool.
Being snake bitten has been a fear of mine over the years and now I’ve overcome it thinks to the Lord’s Power which is the same today as thousands of years ago! Never doubt that!
Love to everyone,
SD
The weather is warm here and supposed to be warmer tomorrow, so lots of little ones will come get their water. Each child under 5 brings their own 2 liter coke bottle for personal use, and those over 6 will carry a five gallon container or bring a jerry rigged milk crate/cart with wheels filled with 2 liter bottles. Currently, we are providing water (Yahweh is) for exactly 68 people. We know because recently, (two weeks ago) the Lord showed us He wanted us to start having the people /children sign for water just to have a record. So after years of willy nilly doing it, now we have an accurate record. The kids are ino it. They like making their little mark on a clipboard that hangs by the water tank…….. another thing is that they are so GRATEFUL. For the first time after years of doing this I notice that NOW the people stand below the balcony before getting water and yell, “HERMANO/A Can we have water?” “YES, we yell back, and they say GRACIAS YAHWEH, GRACIAS HERMANO/A” . Cool.

Greetings,
Well we have just returned from our trip to Tijuana to see off the remainder of Mario’s siblings. And returned strangely enough to see the very lilies that Mario planted in the front yard BLOOMING.
About half of them actually opened up in the space of time that it took us to go to TJ and return! Really wild. They were late this year (usually they come up right on Easter) and it has to be one of Yahweh’s tender mercies to have them open up on a day that has been fraught with mixed emotions.
We took off at around 5:30 am, loaded down with skinny little bean burritos wrapped in homemade corn tortillas given by Mario’s grandmother, Catalina. We breakfasted on the big beach at La Salina.
Aquilino, having just returned from his pueblo,this week, stood in the dust and cried little dirt streaks as we left. They are his cousins and mostly the only children that can bear Aquilino in high doses. So he will miss them just like us.
Vale -age 13,will likely be married when we see her next and Virginia , age 9 will have taken over the housekeeping role most likely.
We were able to get them all on the same bus, which was an answer to prayer. I guess a lot of families get split up en route to Oaxaca and that was something we really wanted to avoid as to us, these are still children. The littlest boy, Irineo, clung to Frank and it was hard to peel him off, while little Marianna, was giggling and excited at the rather raggedy looking bus, and we kept having to tell her to keep her backpack closed as she is amazed by its neon zippers.My emotions were really mixed as they have grown to be like family. we have been through a lot together, cornea transplants, weddings, birthdays and deaths…………………….most importantly though I should be grateful that we are sending the three elder children home saved and baptized and looking towards Resurrection life. Regardless of whether I ever see them in this world again iI know I” see them in the Kingdom.
Ans although it is sad to say goodbye, their departure makes room for new families to get to know and to share the Word and His Love with…………
Blessings to all,
Sis Detra

Anyway, in the past few days Frank is back beyond “normal”………………..now I just must help him not to supersede wisdom and go slow and receive his healing. I myself am out of fear and having lots of old families moving back “home” to Guerrerro and OXA and lots and lots of new families coming on in………………all looking for the “House Who Loves……..”
I am blessed to have so many new people old and young showing up as if they already know us. Evidently they have received a testimony from relatives and friends and that is evidence for me that the Seed is unstoppable
In an exodus that started about 9 days go, the remainder of Mario’s family is scheduled to go home to Copala OXA on Sunday. We have been spending lots of time with them as they say goodbye all week…….a long dramatic and painful for me anyway process…………………we will be taking Mario’s sister (Vale, Virginia, Marianna, and his brothers Irineo and Domingo to eat early in the morning and then placing them onto the “Gold Coast” Charter bus to Oaxaca at around 8:30am. We will not have regular church meeting tomorrow as we ll want to see them off from Tijuana.. They could leave from Maneadero here but in trying that they might get split into different buses, so we have decided to get them on one bus from TJ, so they can go together.
It is already sad. I wish I was almost going………………….. most likely some will eventually return but it is hard. I have known Marianna since she was 3 months old and tomorrow she will be carrying her own little backpack ( a garishly pink/purple “Hello Kitty” number) with all of her worldly goods encompassed. Walking on her own two bare feet. Little Marrianna! How can time pass so quickly??
Please everyone keep this family in prayer……………..that they will carry not just caricatured backpacks but the Word of Yahweh embodied in their little selves…………..the Seed Eternal which no one can stop.
Love to everyone at home, keep up the good fight of faith….in Jesus’ Name,
Sis. Detra

Wow. I am still really high on what happened yesterday. And MORE.
Demetria, a 18 year old mom of three, all 3 filled with Holy Spirit
yesterday, walked about 2 miles to the Mission today.
Why? (you might ask.)
Well, I’ll tell you. Her children, ages 4, 5 and 7 all received a big
dose of the Holy Spirit yesterday. (Hold on, read at own risk as it
gets wild here.)
She came here today asking for the “Explanation” again. She said they
have been talking to each other IN A LANGUAGE” she doesn’t understand.
And they have been like, loving each other ever since the Meeting
yesterday. She was ‘concerned” a bout the behavior.
Well, what does one say??
Really I know this may sound wild even for my Uncle Richard, but it is
what I am saying!!
Frank called me down and we called her upstairs and showed her in the
Word, in the book of Acts about the Holy Spirit and reiterated that
she should be not worried- but HAPPY. And she said , “Oh no you
misunderstand me. I want it too. What my babies have. Can I get it??
My husband is gone, (he is in Guerrrerro, to return until like
January next) and I feel weak and alone…….”
So we laid hands on her in Jesus’ Name. I didn’t ask for the
infilling or anything in specific, but she immediately started
speaking in tongues. And weeping alternated with laughter. It caught
onto me as well. (And according to me I was still “in recovery” in
seclusion from my big day yesterday, well forget
that.)………………………
It is day two in row of miracles for me. After a drought of what I
would say are really BIG supernatural movements /actions, we seem to
be entering another place.
What does it mean? Why now?? I haven’t been doing anything
special…………I would venture to say Ia hd even kind of thought
“those days” had passed for me. I had reconciled my life with that of
others I know who had seen great movements of the Spirit, then gone on
to live “normal” life.
Today, I feel again, strange, different, EXCITED, called and chosen to
be at least a reporter of what is happening here and hopefully more!
But , I more than ever must reflect upon the fact that I was saved by
GRACE. Yahweh chose people to intercede for me when I was yet born
maybe, or at least a small child. He sent people (you both) to bring
me the precious Gospel at the age of 6 years…………….which
makes me realize that I WAS BUT A CHILD (just like the ones we
minister to, live with……..yet He sent you on a trek across the
States to have me HEAR the Word. As a CHILD I was important to Him
even if apparently not so important to my own parents.
It is awesome because at times I think , “Here we are ministering to
almost exclusively, CHILDREN. What kind of famous worldwide ministry
is this???”
And yet, tonight I can say, it is something important. If Yahweh has
us here speaking to CHILDREN as I once was, they can go forth and do
things much bigger than I have done……and there is so much yet to be
revealed, and it will likely be these children or their children who
see those “GREATER THINGS” that Jesus spoke of…………….
Miracles in Baja
Dear UNCLE RICHARD aka, “UR”…….,
HEY!! Today is not a “BURD” day. It has been an AWESOME day for the Church! It was so good it reminded me of the times when I used to hustle my rear down to the old payphone in front of the little market in Cantu at midnite to call you guys collect to tell you what miracle had happened!
I gave you so many $250 phone calls that you cut me off. Seriously! “This number no longer accepts collect calls”.
REALLY, TODAY WAS A DAY LIKE when I used to write to, “UR”.
So , I am dragging out your old moniker……………….we had such a great Meetings today.
We had about 14 adults and 38 children, most from 5-7, quite a few little toddlers, too.
The kids really got into worship during the praise before Frank taught, then Dania took them outside to teach them a Scripture and a new song becuse we had so many adults and Frank felt led to teach
the parents separatly. He taught about gossip and how damging and hurtful it can be and then on forgiveness and forgiving people who hd hurt you. It was good and the people really recieved it. When he was done teaching he called the little children back in . Dania brought them up front (around 25 of them) to sing their new song for the parents. These little barefooted indians preformed an adorable little song then recited John 3:16…………….they were so adorable. These were the littlest normally most disruptive boogers. When they finished and Dania started singing an adoration song, Frank and I just looked at each other and both of us said we NEED to pray for these children.
I felt the annointing so strong as I started walking up to this long line of little ones. They were lined out before the whole Church this row of tiny people and Yahweh showed me just that, very specifically, that I should pray for them-minister to them just as I would adults. I came from the front nd Frank behind them. I went down the line and lifted each childs tiny hands up to the Lord. As I did, I SAW the Lord sitting on His Throne, watching us!! His was seated but leaning towards us just slightly over Frank’s right shoulder, His Face was one of sheer delight………..I can’t describe it anny further, what He looked like now it is hard to describe. Anyway, I went back to the beginning of the line to the first li guy about 4 yers old. He still had is hands up and he was just CONCENTRATED , his eyes shut -head down, I heard clearly the Lord say, “Go ahead, ask me to do it. Ask me to fill them……….” real clear the Voice was and I tell you the annointing was powerful.
I did it. I did not explain anything to the child. He would not have understood me anyway as he spoke no Spanish, only Mixtec. We laid hands on him and I asked. AND THE LITTLE FELLOW GOT IT. Tongues just rolled out, flowed out like water that had been backed up a long time! The little guy was laughing a little , too. I wnent on to the next one and left that one just babbling away! I was about to fall down myself! And it was just the first kid.
The next kid, we just did the same things and he got it aswell. Filled with the Holy Spirit. This guy was 6 and he got such a dose as I prayed for him that he started to sway back and forth and his other came up and asked what I had done to him! Frank explained it to her and I kept moving down the line. Dania came up and stood behind the children I prayed for, not because I told her to, or because she even kne wwhy, she later said she just wanted to hear what was happening and just was CURIOUS. Thank the lOrd she did! The next child was a 5 year old, a teensy girl with pigtails and barefeet in bright pink pijamas, I placed my hnd on her tiny hed and said “Fill, FILL, fill her Jesus………..” I was praying in a normal voice, when I touched her head , I felt POWER go out, for real just like in the Bible and the girl collapsed like a sack of potatoes.Dania caught her. She was the other boy’s sister so praise God, the mother was already aware of what was happening and didn’t freak out!
Remember these people have never SEEN anyone get slain in the Spirit, it was absolutely electrifying the Presence in the room. Every child’s hands were raised, every adult was just almost mesmerized by the Presence and by what they were seeing. I went all the way down the line. Every SINGLE child we laid hands on got filled and spoke in tongues. Two more girls along the way went to the floor.
Dania asked me to pray for her and “get her the Holy Spirit”, her words. She GOT Him. She wept and wept.
It was the most amazing thing I have ever seen or have been a part of. It was like something you would read about happening in a tent revival.
Frank explained the Gift the children hd recieved to everyone together. The mother of 3 children who were ALL Filled asked us to pray for her to recieve the Holy Spirit and she did s well. She cried and cried.
It was so cool………………and we went from this super charged atmosphere to a joyful celebratory feeling of just amazing LOVE for EVERYONE. It was totally supernatural. For about 15 minutes there were NO tribal differences, no judgements, no critisisms……..I cannot put it into words very well, but just say that for a time every single child and adult there were full of JESUS. It was WILD.
I was (and still am) absolutely WIPED out and Frank brought me home, but he took 14 people out to eat tacos! He sys everuone hd a great time. He is just getting home from delivering everyon eback to their homes………………………he is super happy.
I am tired now , but I just wished ya’ll could have been present today. You would have hd such a joyous time!
I feel such a VICTORY took place. I do not know if I’ll ever see some of these babes again………………..they come and go…………… but I HAVE NO DOUBT their lives were totally altered today. And I know our God hs plans for future nd HOPE for them, and that is all I need to know.
And that is good enough for me!
Bless and Glorify the Name of Jesus Our King!!!!!!!!
