And most of that green stuff growing to near the ground is NOT lawn "grass". It was growing wild all along the paths.

Not ALL churches that consider themselves apostolic would fit into this category either.
Some churches are having prayer revivals and reaching a lost and dying world.
I wish I had time to post all the things that have happened at our church in the last 30 days... I will make time to post a few things, then I have to go cook supper.

A man who was raised catholic has been faithful in attendance at our church services for several months now. He wasn't pushed into anything. People reached out to him, and he was just made to feel welcome, so he kept attending. He went to the altar with everyone else to pray, and did the rosary. No one condemned him for how he prayed, they just prayed beside him. He has been involved in EVERY service, EVERY outreach activity, etc since he started attending. A few weeks ago, he asked the pastor for a home Bible Study, because there were some things he didn't understand. Again, he wasn't Pushed into anything. He just couldn't understand about why being baptized was important. He was held up in prayer, given time to study the Bible on his own. He came to the pastor last week, and said I see where I need to be baptized in Jesus name... it was done last Sunday. He has also been filled with the Holy Ghost--with the evidence of speaking in tongues. Now, God will finish the work which he has begun in this man. I'm sure he will turn out to be one of the most on fire members in our church. We have already seen how faithful he wants to be----even BEFORE he was filled with the Holy Ghost.
A pentecostal preacher who had been discouraged and quit church/gave up his ministry-- had daughter who visited our church about a month ago for a youth service. Two services later, she was filled with the Holy Ghost. She went home that Tuesday night, and told her dad. He just broke down into tears. Wednesday night, she came back to church-- and she was so excited... Her dad had told her that everything he'd taught her as a little girl WAS true.... and that he would be attending church with her on Sunday. He honored his promise-- and he came, along with the rest of the family. He was refilled with the Holy Ghost at that service, and our church has a whole new family.
A few months ago, there was a death of a man who's family had just recently come to our church. Due to the support that our church had given to his family during that time-- the rest of his grown children, and all of their families have come to our church. They fill up almost two whole rows of seats.
We have children from the bus ministry receiving the Holy Ghost in our Kids Church services.
Sunday's service was just beyond being described.... I don't even know if there is an accurate count on how many people received the Holy Ghost.
People are being restored, Lives are being changed.
This weekend is family weekend-- where it's a community outreach-- People can bring their tents, campers or whatever they need (linens, etc) to stay in the dorms on the campground. Last year was the first time we'd done it, and had amazing results. This year is only going to be better--- and I can't wait to see what God is gonna do!
Oh wait, this thread was about something else.. Pardon my interruption. Back to your regularly scheduled thread.

That looked real "green" for your part of the desert, at least to me. Upon closer inspection I think I do discern some strains of President Washington's variety of hemp that he was forced to grow for the British Navy until revolution freed him from such tyranny.
I freeze up whenever I see stuff like that. I expect booby-traps and shot gun wielding "foreigners" to pop out of the brush.

What do you mean by standard keeper?
If you just walked in the door you probably wouldn't think so. The place is filled with people from all walks of life, at all stages of growth. The new people probably outnumber the ones who are there that you'd consider to be traditional standard keepers. So from outward appearances, and by someone quick to judge based on that-- some would think not.
