(more good stuff)

This week this came true in our church. We had a church wide meeting.
All department directors had been notified they were fired (including me
:-)! At the meeting, the entire congregation was informed of the plan
and told that our pastor was not going to do the work of the ministry
any longer. If our church is going to have any particular ministry we,
the congregation, will do it or it won't happen! The excitement is
blazing now! There is a move of God like we haven't seen in years!
People are volunteering for things that you would never expect! All they
have been waiting for is permission! Look out satan, here come the
Apostolics of Clinton from Eagle Bend Apostolic Church! We WILL win our
city!
