Ahhhhhhhhhhh yes.... sounds like Church at 'our place'! Had an incredible service tonight. Unbelievable what God did in that one single service. Tried to dismiss and the Gifts of the Spirit fell, drove us to an altar and the congregation prayed over 2 hours from that point. Probably had less than 5 in our entire congregation leave early.
We got out a little after 11 PM... and had to tell the people to 'go home' even at that point!
