Three cement figurines!! But they are cute!!

Cement figureines would not have been my guess. I would have to take pity on the Philippina, though....

Re: ~~~~Interracial Marriage~~~~

We have so many mixed couples in our church; and I love it! It's one of the only churches around where they actually feel accepted. We are in the SOUTH, you know.

Re: ~~~~Interracial Marriage~~~~

Some of my kids that are intermarried are not welcome in some churches and have been told so...

Re: ~~~~Interracial Marriage~~~~

I live in the south and was brought up believing interracial marriage was wrong. The basis for this was prejudice pure and simple. About 15 yrs ago when my sister started seeing a black guy I was livid. But God dealt with those prejudices I had and I overcame them.

But it saddens me that there are still some in my local assembly that would still have a problem with this, especially if it was their child. I pray that all apostolics will overcome their prejudices and be a light to all people.

When Bro Michael Alvear came and preached for us we had and wonderful time. And I am sure he is welcome anytime.

I believe exposure to good Holy Ghost filled interracial families can make us rethink our prejudices and prayerfully overcome them.

Yeah it is Rico, but I know a (white) family that did. It was a sad situation. Then when the dad (black) got killed in a car wreck, they were all about the daughter and kids.
