I am convinced...




Last night in our Sunday Evening Service we had a Praise Concert with Bro Kevin Howard of The Pentecostals of Alexandria. He has spent the last 3 days working with our choir. The service was awesome. The Choir was rockin - they sounded great, cool new songs, and a true display of God's Anointing.

The thing that stood out to me the most was the alters filled with Blue Bomber Kids and their Families. Last night we saw approximately 130 - 150 Neighborhood kids and adults come to First Church. Our City Council member Pete Constant even stopped by prior to the service to connect to our Church.

The Choir concluded the concert with a song called "Free" (I think that was the name of it). It was a slower song, and as the song began the presence of God just ripped through the building. It was incredible. Brand new converts to First Church, within the past year, began to run the aisles. They were truly excited that they were "Free". My eyes welled up when I saw a young man by the name of Jeffrey, who was just baptized last Sunday Night - get out of his seat and begin to dance and run the aisles. You would have to know his story and what God has saved him from- Jeffrey has come a loonnnng way.

After the service we served a dinner in the Fellowship Hall for all of our Community Guests. We didn't anticipate so many people, but God provided, and we had just enough food for everyone. Leah mentioned that she didnt think we would have enough, but God always makes a way - and provides.

It was just incredible. God is doing it. I am just glad to be a part of it. Thank you God for trusting us with these new people. This is just the beginning.

Wow! To God be the glory! I am rejoicing with you on the great reports of REVIVAL in San Jose! Praise God! :-D
There is just no greater feeling than seeing the lost saved and the newly saved worshiping God with all their hearts.
