Joshua's baptism and Holy Ghost report!


Well what a wonderful time we had at Apostolic Conference. Words cannot express the gratitude that I have for Pastor Jerry Dillon family and Parkway Pentecostal Church family. The conference was AMAZING and very timely. I will right more about the conference and our experiences later.


Joshua received the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues! He told Ezra and I, he thought he spoke in two different languages. He told us how tears ran down his face and how he said in his mind that today was the day he would receive it. Nineteen children received the Holy Ghost at the conference. Everyday while we were in the main sanctuary the missionary children had children's church under the direction of Rev. Oliver and family! What a blessing it is to be involved in children ministries. Joshua said, his heart was clean and would like to get baptized in Jesus name when we got home.


So we arrived at the airport on Sunday at 1:00p.m. and came home got cleaned up and went to New Life Center where Josh would be baptized at our good friends church, Rev. Andrew and Shawnna Buxton. To our pleasant surprise Josh wouldn't be the only one getting baptized but Cole Buxton too! Andrew preached an awesome message about the body of Christ and a first time visitor received the Holy Ghost. It was so beautiful to see tears roll down his face and him shake under the power of the Holy Ghost. It was awesome!!! Many other people were touched in the altar and I believe the Lord heard their cry! Joshua got baptized first and came out of the water speaking in tongues again and then Cole after him. Please pray that the Lord uses Josh in a mighty way. Pray that the Light that now dwells in him would draw many people to the cross. My heart is filled with gladness and I rejoice today!

We were in Vancouver, Portland, Aurora, Seaside, and Canon Beach. Whew, what a busy schedule we had. It was well worth it though. Oregon is beautiful in the summer and they have such beautiful breath taking sunsets. On the plane ride over to Oregon the twins had a blast and even got captain wings. Way cool! Josh was nervous, which surprised me because he has flown several times. I held his hand and he seemed at ease for awhile. We arrived in Portland and spent the majority of our time at Ezra's

They Got It!

Yahoo! I got a wonderful report from my beautiful mom today! A couple that my dad has been witnessing to got the HOLY GHOST!!! He is real and ready to feel the hungry and thirsty souls. Mom said, "Andrew and I shouted in the front of the chuch and we rejoiced!" My heart rejocied with hers and I was extremely happy for the church at Faith Tabernacle. It is a Home Missions church in the city of Sanger, CA. I was born and raised there but I got delivered from that place! Just kidding. Well kind of! I have wonderful memories of the little town and I can remember when McDonald's came to town. The population at the time was about 13,000. I believe the population has over 25,000 now. The town has a high crime rate. The gang activity there is very bad. My mom was raised there and my dad moved from Los Angeles as a teenager and met my mom and fell in love with her and had 6 kids. 5 of us are still living. 6 kids what in the world was she thinking? Mom says, "We didn't thi

SeaWorld Bay of Play

We got an invitation from Sea World to check out the new kiddie area that is opening up today for members only. The official opening is tomorrow and I can only imagine how packed that area is going to be. The theme is Sesame Street! We were planning on taking the boys, but the weather is very windy and there are chances of thunderstorms. I think we'll visit the Bay of Play another day. On another note, I'm very pleased to hear the children from the Polygamist group will soon be reunited with the mothers. I didn't agree how it was handled and felt horrible for the children. No matter what those are still their parents. I can't imagine the trauma they went through with the militarized police squad showing up on their property and having to endure living with complete strangers. What amazes me even more is the fact that they did it over an anonymous tip that happened not to be true. What a shame! I must admit I have followed this case very closely! I have scoured the Int
