Just kidding.

She was more annointed than I have heard some men be!

Sis. Alvear said she would not be online last nite. Just wondering if she made it on yet?

[Sister Alvear]

here I am to speak for myself...the pastor asked me to preach since Brother Alvear and Raul Jr both have preached there so that's the answer...Brother Alvear sang and said what he felt and I told them at the beginning I never the Lord call me to preach but making missionary talks were part of my calling. (the part I DO NOT like) however I will gladly do it at God's bidding.

Thanks Buffy for such kind words.

I am at my sister's house right now and plan to spend the night with her. Where I stayed last night I did not have internet.

I spoke to Jonathan tonite he said Adon is with him going to Shelbyville. He said they were going to stop back by his Aunt's at Columbia. Goodness both brothers in the States.

This is terrible but.....when I read this thread, I saw.......SA ministered at my church toilet!!! I know....hit me with a noodle.

I go where invited and all know I am a woman. Yesterday morning I also spoke at a church and the alters were full...the pastor told me that was the best thing that could have happened at his church. If sitting on a pew blesses some I just sit and if others ask me to speak I do...my motto in life is to be a blessing...

And you are a blessing... It was such a blessing to get to hear you minister when you visited the church in Ripley, MS. I hope I have the opportunity to be in a service with you again sometime.

Amen! Ditto.

Ruth gleaned the harvestfields and handfulls were left for her to gather...so whatever be the few that I might gather I am sure they will be thankfulwhen harvest is all gathered in...
My husband and I are low keyed people so we just work quitely in HIS fields and go whereever HE bids and at the surprize of money guys HIS blessings has built one of the largest works in "South America" nothing that Brother Alvear and I have really done for we are not money folks and have very little monthly support and a very large family that depends on us...so it is His doings.
My husband is far from political preachers and sometimes we have some of them to come around he just smiles and says to me another politician! We hold no cards but for 40 years He has taken care of us. My husband does not even make calls and pull strings...In years past I must confess I have mentioned joining something...him being more out going...he just smiles and says God did not call him for that...so we have raised a huge family never knowing where the next meal will come from but it always comes. I have watched people over the years and the results politics had on their children...my husband was right ... we are a happy family with no pressure to belong or keep up with whoever.
