Godly Heritage

I am 5th generation Pentecost. Back in 1911, my Grandpa Mike received the Holy Ghost in Oklahoma. Shortly after, he started evangelizing. Starting churches in several states, (including California), and later on pastoring, he died in 1962 when he suffered a heart attack while preaching in Riverbank. What a heritage I'm thankful for.

LIFT Youth Conference

This past weekend was LIFT Youth Conference 08'. The speaker this year was Bro. Greg Godwin and it was an incredible time. Young people pouring their hearts out and getting excited to go take on their world. Will try to post more later!

Celebrate the Season Concert

Sunday night was an incredible time. With a full house of visitors and guests, it was a fun and exciting evening.

It started out with praise and worship and immediately after, the choir began to sing. After the choir, "Thrice Confirmed" sang and I followed. Up next was "Hands of Anointing" who did an incredible job at "Jesus Born on this Day" and "Carol of the Bells". I have to say they did incredible. I would look strange if I tried to do that hand stuff. I can barely focus on keeping the hands on the wheel while I'm driving. (It's really hard when you have a cheesburger and a starbucks in your hands)

Up next was the hilarious "Crunch and Munch". They had everybody in the building laughing like crazy that night. If anybody has ever seen "Bunch and Breeze" you will know what I am talking about.

After them was Luis Lenzi on saxophone. If you know Luis, you would know he is extremely talented on just about every instrument and not just sax. To the point of playing at Ray Charles funeral several years back when he passed on. That same night doing sound for Stevie Wonder.

It was time for Karen Harding. All the way from Nashville, what can I say? So much talent, so much anointing. After she was done, almost everybody was in the alters seeking God. After awhile she took it back over and it turned into a shoutn' service. Incredible, anointed job.

What an awesome night and I know I havent put into words what it was really like but I will post some pics so you can see kind of what happened.

Special thanks to everybody who made this night a complete success!
