Praise the Lord all ye saints of the most high God,
I am still so excited about the good news of what God has been doing
lately that I can hardly contain myself.

First of all, I spent the last week at the Western District (UPC) Youth
Convention. The services were great both day and night. It seemed every
message tied in to the next. To be with over 4000 young people
worshiping in one place is always exciting and up lifting.
There were at least 3 young people from our church who received the Holy
Ghost during youth convention. I have no idea how many others received
it.

If that wasn't enough, we came home to have Easter Crusade services with
Brother Doug Morgan.I invited a lady that I met on the internet over 2
years ago to come Saturday night. (She has been coming to church once in
awhile during that time).She was in such a state mentally and
emotionally that she couldn't even decide whether to go with me or not.
I told her I would decide and she was going. Anyway, she was crying
before we ever got in the door that night and I told her that is what
Jesus is looking for, a broken and contrite spirit. She went to the
alter after hearing the Actls 2:38 msg and Jesus filled her with His
spirit with the evidence of speaking in other tongues. She was
immediately transformed (no other word fits). She was full of joy, she
absolutely glowed. 

Sunday evening my friend was baptized in Jesus name along with 2 young
people that had received the Holy Ghost at youth convention.

This is my first spiritual baby outside of my family. So I am really
excited. My Pastor introduced her to the congregation and said she is
our first Internet baby. That Jesus can use even manmade communication
systems to further the work of His kingdom.

Whew, pretty long winded for a lurker.
