Who has met whom?

[servant]

Just wondering how many of the posters here have met other posters in person? If so, who have you met? This morning I had the privilege of meeting Stmatt and his family. They are very sweet people and I hope to get together with them some more in the future. I have also met Paulinfla (where are you, Bro?) and Angie (where are you, Sis?) and Justforgiven (where are you, Bro?). It's really fun to actually meet other posters in person. Sure wish we'd have that long-discussed GNC reunion soon!

God bless,

Serv :)

I haven't met anyone in here personally, but I have met several people from the internet and continue to do so. I haven't been disappointed yet.

Me...

[nightwatchman]

My wife and I, had the privilege of praying and visiting with Bro. Strange at his ranchhouse in Rockland ,TX.

[Adoniyah]

I have had the privledge of meeting several who post here from time to time.

It was a wonderful privledge to meet Brother Nightwatchman, a man who could teach us all on the subject of Prayer, his precious wife Cherokee, a prayer warrior in her own rite, and soul winner.

I have met brother Nix, brother Tommy Joy came to Houston and was blessed by he and his wife's very precious and beautiful visit.

Refinersfire has been in my crusades and in my home and have enjoyed many wonderful bible studies with him, his wife, little boy and some of his friends.

There are others here that know me but sadly, I cannot say that I remember them specifically.

I don't see brother Ken Douglas here any more, but we have had wonderful time of fellowship, staying up all night long speaking to each other concerning the mysteries of Christ.

In fact, if Brother Nix sees this post, I have lost your phone number, and since I do not have aol anymore, I don't have your address either. The last time we had lunch, you promised that you would buy mine next time. I am still waiting. I am not going to let you off the hook, if I can find you.

[John Atkinson]

I have met Sis Survivor, she came and visited our church and Bro Paulinfla, who popped by also, both great people we hope to see again!!!

HEy PAULINFLA....... WHERE ARE YOU BRO....WE MISSS YOU!!!

[John Atkinson]

Funny you mention Bro Ken Douglass, he must have been active before we got the cafe. Bro Douglass was used of God in the very begining of the Church here in Norwich by way of several prophecies to Bro Rutledge that confirmed the leading of the Holy Ghost.

If anyone knows how to get ahold of Bro. Douglass, please mention that the GNC is in our hands and invite him back!

[ThirdGeneration]

Adoniyah- I have Xprodical's email address, but I don't have yours since you have left AOL.

I am 100% confident that he would be happy for me to pass it along so that he can buy your lunch!

However, my Email doesn't appear to work through the Cafe.

Email me at Thirdgeneration@Comcast.net and you will be having lunch with X in no time! Bon Apetite!

[Adoniyah]

The last that I heard from Brother Ken Douglas, he was in Aftrica on an Evangelistic tour. He was doing a great work there. That was only four or five months ago. Since I left aol, I lost contact with him.

Brother Douglas was on the Cafe for a long time. For a while he was a moderator. We met on the net, though we knew many, many mutual friends.

We shared a motel room at a conference one night. Needless to say, neither of us slept, staying awake the whole night, until daylight, discussing the good Word of God. Indeed he loves the Word.

I too would love to hear from him.

Sister Third,

I sent you an e-mail. If I can help it, I am not going to let Brother Nix off the hook. He owes me a lunch. :) He is a great brother.

[Webmaster]

I have met Revelationist, and preached for him several times. Haven't seen him on here for awhile though.

Bro. Flemming

[Adoniyah]

Oh yes, I met Revelationst also.

Saw him at a Camp Meeting in Center Texas a few years back. Forgot about that one.

[Webmaster]

Adoniyah,

That same campmeeting will be held in Marlin, Texas this July.

Bro. Flemming

[stmatthew]

I have now met my good friend Servent.

I had the opportunity to visit the church he attends this last Sunday. I was very impressed at the Spirit I felt. I felt very much at home. Bro Serv, We will be back!!

My mother, who is moving to the Knoxville area, thouroughly enjoyed the service also, and really liked the Pastor. I believe she will eventually make that her home church when she completes her move in August.

I am attempting to plan a trip to Texas to see my Sister in Fort Worth around July. If it materializes, my hopes are to sneak down towards Houston, and meet my daddy, Adoniyah :D!

I would love to see a get together with all you precious people.

[Adoniyah]

hahahaha.......daddy, huh?

Actually I do have some spiritual children scattered around the country. Daddy...how sweet...and we have not even met, except in your spiritual dream or vision, or whatever it was.

I would be so honored to meet you and receive you in my home either here in Houston or Rockland, along with your wife and family.

[stmatthew]

Bro Strange,

We may not have met in the natural yet, but in the Spiritual...........

[searching]

I would also love to meet Adoniyah. A ranch in Texas.......what a dream...

Me...

[Adoniyah]

I told y'all before. I'll tell y'all again. Y'all are all welcome. Come on down. We'll put a big old brisket on the smoker for those that feast, and we'll have plenty of time to pray and search the Word for those that fast.

The great Lone Star State is alive with the "Blue Bonnets" and East Texas is ablaze with the beautiful Dog Wood trees in thier glorious white blossoms. There are plenty of them on my place.

[servant]

Stmatt,
That would be great if your mom made my church her home church! Would you be visiting more often then??? :0

Serv :)

[Xerf]

Well, I wouldn't like to brag but i have met most everyone except those on this board.

I may be in your neighborhood soon!

[foreverblessed]

Nobody wants to admit they have met me! :D

[searching]

Adoniyah, I think fasting would be the last thing on my mind if I were to visit you, and if I were fasting and you had something that good cooking, that would be a fast I would have to break! I'm making plans......someday.

Me...

[Adoniyah]

Searching:

You come on down and we'll break your fast four or five times a day. We will make sure you gain a few pounds and richer in the Spirit also. We'll let the rest of 'em do the fasting. Besides, they need to fast anyway. :)

[Adoniyah]

Forever:

I would love to say that I have met you. It has been too many years since I have been up in your neck of the woods. The closest that I have been lately is up in Illinois where my daughter and son-in-law pastored a church. C'mon down to the big "T."

[foreverblessed]

Adoniyah,
I love Texas, a little too hot in the summer, I felt like I was melting, but it has to be better than the North. I just live here because ...... can't remember why??? Have to think about that for a while :D
My ex mother-in-law is in daingerfield Texas, I have been to visit there several times. We have friends in Vidor Texas, Bro. and Sis. Edwards. I would love to visit sometime. Next time I head that way, I will find out where you all are.

[Adoniyah]

I just remembered...

I met Brother Rutledge one year at a General Conference. I think it was in Salt Lake City.

If I keep thinking, I might eventually remembering meeting half of everyone on here. I would I love to meet everyone...including Witness and Apostle. Talk about the love of God, huh??? :)

[tufluv]

Well, whomever makes it to Houston, or Rockland, might as well sneak on down a little further south to my city, Corpus Christi, TX, to visit with us southerners, like myself, and LIGHT, whom is like 20 min. from me, and then there's SeguidordeJesus, whom also is about the same distance, from me. :D
I'll be visiting LIGHT's church very soon. ;)
Yeah, it is kinda hot down here! I swear every year I'm moving up north, somewhere!

[stmatthew]

Serv,

Yes, that does mean I will get to come your way and visit some. My mom really did enjoy the liberty and freedom she felt there. My personal view is that that is where the Lord wants her, and as her son I have voiced it to her :D.

On a side note, we ended up deciding to stay over Sunday night about 5:30pm, but it would have been too late to come back, so we attended a local Apostolic church.

I was saddened. Even as I came toward the front door, I felt an uncertainty in the spirit. Upon going in, I immediately kew something was wrong in the spirit. It was not evident with sight, as everyone had the apostolic uniform on. Yet there was no doubt that something just was not right. My wife and mother went to the restroom, and I sat there just praying to God, "What is wrong here?", and questioning myself to see if it was just me. As the service started, my mother returned and leaned over to me and said, I hope this gets better. I asked her if she felt it too, and she stated she did. My wife later told me she felt an uneasiness also. Well the worship leader began, and the place was shaking, all hands were raised, and there was a semblance of worship. Yet it was like an empty shell. A form of Godliness. I have been in dead services before, but never like this. It literally had a spirit of death in it. The sad part was everyone seemed to be engrossed in the spirit. If it was just me that saw it I would have probably dismissed it. But my mother and wife both saw it also. After about 2 songs they started calling people up for prayer, all the while singing. I took the opportunity God had given me, and made a dash for the door, my family following.

The sad thing is, this is a church where the pastor is well known.

[foreverblessed]

Tufluv, You do not want to move North!! We are always scratching our heads wondering WHY :confused: we live in the North when you all are warm.... One winter here and it would send you packing! :)

[tufluv]

Yeah, I've heard! Seeing all those news pic's of people stranded in the snow, does not look very appealing, true, but I'm sure the summer months are glorious!
Summer here is 75% of the year! Humidity is as unappealing as the high snow banks., yet we do have a beautiful beach here, and its still not a really big city, so we do have breathing room here.,BUT, its growing rapidly of late. :realmad: and its bringing its problems with it, as can be imagined.
Well, how 'bout a summer home and a winter home? I'm dreaming! Many of the smart folks that planned their retirement well, do get to do that, NOT ME.
PRAISE GOD, anyway!

[Thelordisone]

Praise Him All!!

Whenever one of y'all decide to visit one of the finest cities in the World(San Diego of course) may sure you let me know!!

I would sure like to meet the folk on the other end.

God Bless All!!

[stmatthew]

There is nothing like a trip to the mountains of North Carolina. I live less than 20 miles from 3 ski slopes. (I don't ski though:))

[servant]

Stmatt,
I will keep my fingers crossed that your mom will make my church her church home! Glad y'all liked it.

God bless,

Serv :)

[justforgiven]

Hi
Just wanted to say that I have met Servant and his family, they are wonderful people. They visted our church on Sunday morning and Servant was asked to preach and did a fine job. I hope to get to visit with him again someday.

Justforgiven

[tufluv]

Well, Praise God, my sons and I got to meet Bro.Ben (SequidordeJesus) this Sunday, Mothers day! He joined us for service, praising and worshipping of our LORD, Jesus, and fellowship (brisket/trimmings) afterwards. My sons really enjoyed talking with him. Everyone liked him. His prescence was a huge blessing to our church.
Our pastor and co-pastor were very impressed with him and his spirit. Bro. Ben is a really TAL , handsome, young man with a great BIG love for the LORD, I wish him all the blessings a young servant of the LORD deserves, and that his dreams come true. We hope to see him again real soon., he's only like 30 min. away from us!!
PRAISE GOD! for HIS mercies!

I have met Bro. Faithchild before ever coming on GNC.....about 5 or 6 years ago in the Bugalousa (sp?) Bible Conference....

[Adoniyah]

Committed:

If you are located in California, what was the occasion of your visit to beautiful Washington Parish, La. and smell the Crown Zellerbach Paper (perfume) mill?

Was it exclusively to attend the oldest Bible Conference of the UPCI?

[ddc101]

This is kinda fun.Do you all remember Senior Apostle? He came
and preached a revival with his family and stayed with us.Boy did
we have fun.The neat thing thing is they are on the same kind
of diet plan as I am.Boy were they fun.
I was privilaged to met Bro.Yohes departed dad and sister and hear them sing and preach some years ago.Did you all know his
sister was even on that tv show starsearch? She won as high
as she could go until they asked her to consider singing a song
that wasn't christian.She refused...go girl...
Boudin Rouge has preached a revival here twice.They are really neat people.His little girl Anastasia has the same first name as
my Grandma.That really tickled my dad.He also has a really sweet
and fun wife.They would be neat to have around all the time.
Bro.Strange,Third,Forever,John,Bro.Rutledge,Dane,S urvivor,Bro.Blume and all the rest of you I just want to say that though we have not met
face to face you are the big family I always wanted growing up.
I love you guys.I really miss Bro.Paul and Sis.Yael.Where have they gone off to.Forlove though silent I know you're listening.lv sis.c:angel:

[survivor4christ]

I have met Bro. John, Bro. Rutledge and all those at the Norwich
Tabernacle family!

I love it there! Bro John and Bro Rutledge-the whole crew are awesome peeps!

Sis. Phyllis, also. What a dear heart!

It is my wish to meet you all in person someday, also. Lots of great, SAVED folk on this cafe!

Love, Sis. Wenona

[committed]

Adoniyah,
My daughter's husband assists in his father's church in Alabama. They go to the bible conference when ever they can. We just happened to be visiting at the time and got to go, Rex Johnson preached and it was very good! We saw several preachers we probably would not have been blesses to see, if we hadn't got to see. This last BOTT, both of my sons and wives went with their sister and her husband, and they loved it. After being in church for 28 years, we actually getting to spread our wings some and see other churches and saints and it is fun!

[seguidordejesus]

I had the privilege of meeting Tufluv this past weekend when I visited her church in Corpus Christi. Wonderful people!

[John Atkinson]

I have met Survivor, Bro Paulinfla (Where is he?) Bro Yohe, and of course one of our newest - Former PK

Also Ran into Bro Ken Douglass at AWCF, but he is kindof a way former member.....

[Adoniyah]

Bro. John,

I am very happy that you saw brother Ken Douglas. He and I would e-mail back and forth until I left aol, but then I lost his address and he did not have mine. If he gave it to you, please send it to me.

The last that I heard from him he was stirring up Africa.

[Kerux]

i know 2 of the other posters here personally, If they want to admit it they can haha, I will only mention apforthelord, if you couldnt tell, we goto the same church, as long as the super cool UNITY. :cool:

[bishop1]

ADONIYAH;

I believe that you attend the same church as my neice. Jason & Tabitha Hyams, If so give them a boost for me, tell them that Uncle Joe said Howdyand that I absolutely refuse to shape my 10 gallon Sretson. {Tabitha's mother is my baby sister}.
Bro. Holland

[O2blikehim]

Well, I WAS planning on going to see Servant (and perhaps others) in beautiful Tennessee at the end of last month, but instead I AM SCRUNCHED UP IN PAIN IN FRONT OF MY COMPUTER trying to get over my recent surgery! Back to the pain pill bottle for me.

On a more serious note I do request your prayers for a speedy recovery.

In Christ, Stephen

[foreverblessed]

Well, lookie here, I get to resurrect this old thread! :)

:banana: :banana: I met Faithchild :banana: :banana:

I went to hear Bro. Jim preach tonight, in a tent revival, grass carpet and all! :) It wuz cold... only about 50 degrees.

He did a fine job preaching, I really enjoyed his ministry. :bow:

[servant]

Forever,
Was he nicer in person? :D

Serv :banana:

[Webmaster]

Actually, FC's computer personna and his real time personna are much different. In the real world, FC is a super niceguy.

Bro. Femming

[foreverblessed]

Yeah Serv, he was pretty cool, and he didn't even bite! :D


He is a nice guy mlflemming, and I agree, he is different than online. (not that he isn't nice online! :))

In his preaching though, his wit comes through pretty strongly, if I hadn't been able to see, or even heard his introduction, it wouldn't have taken me long to figure out who was speaking.

[bishop1]

"i ben evrywhar man"

& even met a hole bunch of peoples 2 !

[Webmaster]

Bishop, I for one believe you have met EVERYONE! :)

Bro. Flemming

I met FC at General Conference once. We talked about his book, I am sure he would not remember me - since I was one of hundreds he spoke to at his WAP booth area.

Forever,
Wouldn't you be shocked if you found that I was a very blunt, sarcastic man in person? :banana:

Serv :)

[searching]

There are some people I know here in person, and others that I will be meeting this year. I am amazed at the people I meet on the internet. There is an individual here that I have been talking to online for about 3 months now, and just recently found out she posts here. Wow, was I shocked!! There is another poster here that I met online about five years ago, and I have met her in person (in fact, she lives less than ten miles from me).

All this makes me wonder who else I know on this forum...it's scary!!

Me...

[servant]

Searching,
I like your signature at the end of your post. Why do you think Mrs. Servant married me? :banana:

Serv :)

[servant]

Oops! I guess that would be "Sis. Servant" to everyone here! ;)

Serv :)

[searching]

HAHA!! Serv, you are the first person to comment on that sig since I put it there a couple days ago. I have many more that cater to the women, so keep watching, and I'll entertain you!!

Me...

[foreverblessed]

Now Serv, I do believe that would shock me a little. Your so kind here.. I honestly couldn't see you being blunt and sarcastic.

Would you believe that I am shy and very reserved in person? One that almost NEVER talks to strangers, let alone tell my whole life story to some! :) It takes me a little while to make friends.

I have to admit, I was afraid that Jim might be intimidating in person, and I found him to be very kind and easy to talk to.

[Faithchild]

Duh, ya'll got to know that I see this stuff! According to Tim LaHaye's temperaments, I am a melancholy/choleric personality.My choleric side is apparently expressed in writing, my melancholy in person. A classic melan/choleric am I.

I've had the privilege of meeting Bro. John and Bro. Rutledge. They were amazingly like their posts. Bro. John being articulate and assertive. Bro. Ren being gracious and kinda southern gentlemanly. My wife would describe him as "courtly." I've recently met and hired Mlflemming. He is my new IT/Webmaster. He is one of those people that you feel like you've known your whole life, though you've just met him. I've discovered he's a very talented and gifted man. A preacher, singer, and a myriad of other abilities including web-site work.

I got to meet Foreverblessed, Wednesday night, at the Noblesville Tent Revival. She brought her beautiful three daughters, her mother, and her sister. She was very pleasant and responsive in our conversation. It's obvious she loves her kids and they are cutie-pies! I think we should have a get together sometime in Conneticut. Bro. John & Bro. Rutledge should set a date, and we'll all just have to get up there!

Bill, if you show up, I'll buy your dinner!:p

[servant]

FC,
Well, DUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHH!!!!! Why do you think I wrote it???? :banana: :banana:

Serv :)

[Marie]

As far as I know, I haven't met any of you...but you never know. Oh, maybe Bro. Rutledge about 20 or so years ago. LOL A get-together sounds great!
Forever you remind me of a Sister in Calgary. You could be twins! Her name is Gabriel and she is one of the sweetest girls! We stayed with her for a month when my mother was sick. She also has 3 pugs:D

[jhlent]

I hope to be meeting Bro. John and Bro. Rutledge on or about the 20th. of June.
I'm going to take a little ride out there to say hi........... And spend a day or two, I am looking forward to this meeting.

[ThirdGeneration]

jhlent- Well please make sure you talk to us alot when you get back.

One of our dear posters has not been heard from since posting that he had been there! Let's all keep Paulinfla in our prayers. I miss him dearly.... :cry:

Btw- We haven't heard from BroDane in a long time either! Talk to us bro! :banana:

John Lent "jhlent" from the cafe has been with us this weekend. We have enjoyed spendin time with Bro Lent.

Today we gave him the grand tour of the US Submarine force museum and USS Nautilus. Tonight Bro Lent will be preaching for us if you would like to listen in.

After all these comments, I feel a bit left out here... I haven't met anyone from this board.:(

We even attended Sun. morning church services, got to know each other, she is very much an Apostolic sister in Christ, I could learn from her! A beautiful spirit! May the LORD make another future time for us to get together again. If not, then in GLORY! :angel:

I had the pleasure of meeting Bro. John and his family and I also meet with Bro. R. Rutledge.
I had a great time and look forward to going back for another visit.

Hey Tuf!!! Thanks for the kind words. It was great to meet you as well. When MIL's house sells, we'll be coming back to YOUR TOWN to help her pack up (at least I think we will). Right now, she's way overpriced so it could be a looong time, but God knows all things. Pray!!! :-)

Hey Everybody!!! Ask Bro. Adoniyah about the goat and his "winter coat."Poor Goat!!!.....Love Ya' in Jesus!!! Cherokee

I was blessed to meet and have dinner with O2Blikehim and his beautiful family this evening, at Spaghetti Factory. (remember, one of my favorite places, no Shapiro's this time! ;))

He has a lovely and sweet wife, and two beautiful girls. I enjoyed the pleasant company, conversation and the food. He treated, wasn't that sweet? :)

I am getting ready to meet several other members of the GNC next month, and I am excited. :p

OK, three members down, and 300+ left to go...:) If anyone is in Indy for any reason, contact me, and we'll go to dinner. I'll treat!

Lisa - AKA Foreverbessed, Thanks again for communing with us. Will you vouch for me that I am thoroughly "Pentecostal" , and even have all the proper distinctives? I have no beard (currently) I drank no wine, and I even gossiped a little! Of course with the "IRON FIST" recently claiming two more victims how could I resist? :)

Stephen

[foreverblessed]

I can vouch for you Stephen, you looked like most every other conservative man around. As you already know, my daughter Jaci had your wife picked out walking down the street, before we ever parked and got to the restaurant... just by her uniform! ;) Well of course attached to the wife with the uniform was two little girls and a husband, so that helped a little too.

Thank you Stephen, I had a wonderful time.

He was good, we didn't gossip too much.. although it has been a little exciting around here lately! ;) Hey at least we didn't do anything sinful like take bets on who gets the axe from Iron Fist and the Terminator, like searching and AK have been doing. Ha ha...JK

[servant]

To all,
I had the distinct pleasure of meeting some of my bestest buddies ever on the GNC last night! I met Foreverblessed, Searching, and my dear old arch enemy/good friend Thirdgeneration! Those three gals are all here for a little getaway, and Stmatt & family came over from NC to be with us, too! So the Servant family, STmatt family, and those three wonderful sisters all met for dinner, then went to my awesome church ;) , and out for dessert afterwards.
I must say it was a great time of fellowship, and I hope that we all will be able to get together again sometime. Third even admitted that my church and my family was every bit what I always said they were! My pastor even personally greeted her after church and chatted pleasantly with her!
Thank you so much Stmatt & family, Forever, Searching, and of course Third for the wonderful time!
If any of the rest of you have never met another GNC'er in person, please make the effort sometime to do so. It is well worth it! God bless.

what are you motel six?
I really like the fall season there.I have been three times for fall season.God sure knows how to bless us doesn't he.The colors are wonderful.Louisiana is mostly green all year long except by
coincidence when we actually have sneaux.We are so fond of snow that we have machines make sneaux balls in summer.But honestly some years we never even take out coats.So for those with the long sleeve conviction I hope there is an extra for La Saints as its a sacrifice.I like a place in Cosby that serves hot fried Apple pies.I can't remember the name of it but its on the way to the Walmart when headed out that way.In fact we camped in Cosby one time.But last time we got a condo in Ober.
That was awesome.I liked it up there in the evenings.You sure are blessed to live in such a beautiful place.lv sis.c

No, Serv, I don't know where Maryville is. What is it close to?

[ddc101]

Its the near the back door to the Smoky Mountain National Park.Serv may tell you but Maryville is like a picture postcard especially in Autumn.Red brick building and rolling hills with white church steeples...awesome.Its the only town I ever said when I saw it that I would love to live there.lv sis.c

Hi ThirdGeneration

Welcome back. The cafe and several of our ministry websites have been down and we are happy to have it all restored after a very busy night and day.

Unfortunatly any posts that were made after about 1:30 Eastern day light time yesterday afternoon will not show up.

It could have been much worse, and for awhile it seemed that we would have to go back several weeks and hundreds of our posts could have been lost.

Thanks to bro John and those who helped last night and today, the down time was kept to a minimum.

Sorry for the inconvienience. The circumstances were beyond our control, and we are glad to be back up and running.

God bless

Well phooey...posts lost in cyberspace. Oh well, least the board is back.

I'm ready to go rafting again!:banana:

[searching]

Oh well, if everyone didn't get a chance to read about our trip yesterday, then it's gone forever!

Me...

[Adoniyah]

Now that I am a bit calmed down, I said before the hacker hacked our post, that I am JEALOUS.

I also said that some of my favorite people got together for some fun and fellowship and I was not there. My gills are green with envy.

I would have loved to have been there. But, since I was not, I am still very happy that you all were able to get together. I know that it must have been a very wonderful occassion for all.

Love,
Bro. Strange

[servant]

Adoniyah,
Perhaps one day we'll drift down to the Lone Star State and meet up on that blissful ranch somewhere near Rockland and have some of the Mrs.' down-home cookin'. Do you think she would fry us up some rattesnake? Tastes just like chicken!

Serv :)

[searching]

Adoniyah, your name came up several times between all of us. You are well thought of and loved.

Me...

[Adoniyah]

Searching...

Well, that feels a little better, but I'm still green around the gills.

Servant...

Everything taste like chicken down here; Armadillo, Rattlesnake, Possum, Coon and Chicken.

Yessir, the Mrs can cook a fine batch of almost anything including yo' favorite pokesalad.

Y'all come on down.

[foreverblessed]

Adoniyah,
I am gonna make it on down there someday to see you.


Hey searching.... I don't mind recalling the whole rafting incident again, I just don't have the time at the moment. Anything you want me to add? ;)

[LadyRev]

FB,

Be sure to add that Searching was determined to be named the first "swimmer" in our group. She started out swimming just as we were putting the raft into the water! Remember?

:yeah:

[stmatthew]

Yes..................

Please tell all :D. I'm itching to here all the details of the famous "River Run".

It was wonderful to finally meet some very special people, and Bro Servent too :D. I really saw a true christian spirit in you three sisters. I was just sorry that the bungee jump was not performed.


Elder Brother,

I will come that way one day. And I believe it will not be too long in the future.

[LadyRev]

Sorry I didn't get there soon enough to meet you Bro. Burdette and Servant as well. I've heard alot about both of you though. :D

[servant]

LadyRev,
Maybe at the next unofficial reunion!

Serv :)

[LadyRev]

Sounds like a plan! :D

[searching]

FB, you don't have to add all the gory details again, do ya??

Besides, the pain and bruising is going away now.

Me...

[foreverblessed]

Searching,
You get ready to go through it all again.

StMatt,
I am so glad I got to meet you! I truly enjoyed meeting with you and your wife. Your wife was just precious. I loved her spirit, it was just beautiful. In my prior post that was deleted, I mentioned that we didn't die from the Cherry Koolaid! :) You are sorta quiet, kinda like me, but had such a good personality. I was impressed with your children. Your daughter would fit in around here along with my girls, I could have taken her home with me.;)

And of course, I loved meeting Servant too. He was just as I imagined him. He had a lovely wife and family too. I told him he was gonna have to find me a man down there in his church, I want to move there! :) I loved his church, and really enjoyed the preaching.


OK all about this rafting trip.

We started out after suiting up with helmet and vest. I was really quiet on the bus ride over to where they let you out to start. I was a little nervous at first. It didn't take long for me to realize I loved it! Especially the rough parts. Wow, what fun!

In a class 4 area, we lost searching overboard, and as she went over the side, she grabbed Third, and brought her overboard with her. You know, I really think it was probably intentional! ;)

People were yelling directions to Lady Rev and I on how to pull Third aboard. I was really nervous about the fact, if I moved around too much rescuing, I would end up in the water too. Anyway... There is NO graceful way about getting back in the raft.

Poor searching landed on some rock, and when I looked back once, she was holding on to something for dear life. Third, as kind and loving as she is, was worried about getting Searching, who we left back up the river with other boats, than getting herself in.

Somehow LadyRev and I managed to get Third back into the raft. (I think LR did more than I did) You all remember now, for future reference, you don't want me on rescuing teams ;).

We all rowed back to pick up searching, she was hanging onto another boat, but I think someone had tried to pull her aboard their boat, and about choked her to death. Our guide managed to drag her aboard our raft. She claims I did nothing to help save her, like I am going to reach over and go in with her! :D RIGHT :yeah:

The guide hit me over the head with his paddle, cause searching told him I was asleep... see what a troublemaker she is. ;) I really do believe she intentionally drug Third in with her, she really didn't want to go down by herself... I was a eye witness and all. :D

Anyway, we had a wonderful time, and I enjoyed meeting everyone. That makes 7 friends that I have met from the GNC. Just think, if it were not for this place, I wouldn't know some of the greatest people around! :) Love you all.

[searching]

Ok FB, I deserved all that! I did fall overboard, no thanks to this little push by the person on my right!! As for grabbing Third and pulling her with me, if I had to choose someone to take with me, it was her! However, when I first grabbed her, it was to save myself, but when I realized I was going over, I let go of her and intended to grab the rope on the side of the raft, but grabbed Third again, apparently. Anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

FB, you were so tense until that little incident happened....LOL! After that, you were so relaxed and all. As for the guide bopping you on the head, I was shocked that he did that, but it was funny! I do hope his back is in better shape than mine after hauling me in. And you are right about the fact there is NO graceful way to get in a raft after going over, and any modesty I had before getting thrown went with me in the water.

As for holding on to something for dear life, well, it's a good thing I'm a good swimmer and don't panic in water, because there was nothing to grab on to until I got to that other boat! Then I was hanging on, but not to get in. That guide tried getting me in, but was choking me, yes. I had to tell him to just leave me alone!

It was the best rafting trip I have ever been on, in spite of the pain! I have many wonderful memories to last the rest of my life, and I hope to add to them with future trips and reunions.

Me...

[nightwatchman]

FROM F.B. In a class 4 area, we lost searching overboard, and as she went over the side, she grabbed Third, and brought her overboard with her. You know, I really think it was probably intentional!

[phil2jones]

Well... I guess I should go ahead and confess... I know FaithChild! I have known him when he wasn't and when he was. He's kind of like a book I was required to read in High School... That Was Then, This Is Now . You know Jim, I kind of resemble that book as well.

Jim is truly a great thinker and, IMO, he tries his best to get the rest of us to think as well.

FC, please forgive we mindless wonders that are so dependent on your wit and wisdom for our daily insights! Maybe if we can continue in your presence on this board we too will think on our own one day!:bow: :bow:

Two Bows and one Wow for FaithChild:banana:

Love you, Brother

[LadyRev]

FB,

Searching is out for vengence. We will have to be extra careful next rafting trip cause shes already threatening to take one of us down with her! I think we should make her sit back near the guide. :D

[Faithchild]

Phil, you can stop now. I've already agreed to run your article and play your sermon tape on the September Edition of FaithchildForum.Com.

Actually folks, I've spent an afternoon between services at Phil Jones apartment when he was entertaining me--as the guest of the Sanctuary of Praise UPC in Pineville, LA. The vacationing pastor had left him in charge (I won't comment). We ate at Ryan's Steakhouse, went to his apartment and discussed the Bible, read Bernard Gillespie, and snoozed in the easy chairs. We had a great service that night!

Folks, this guy is a great preacher! He was preaching for the Manguns when he was a teen-ager in Louisiana!

You just THINK your pulling me in! I don't do the drowned rat look! ;) he hee

You all don't have no pictures to post ? we want proof !!!:D :D :D

[foreverblessed]

nope, no pics, I am not the camera type! I did bring some pics of my girls with me to share with my buddies. I didn't even have a recent one of them, they were all at least 3 years old. That's how bad I am!

[searching]

Actually, NONE of us brought a camera!!! Besides, I'm a little camera shy, ask LadyRev! Someone from her church wanted to take my pic, and I refused. Besides, pictures could never do justice to actually BEING there!!

Hey, What do you know, I have had the privilege of meeting JSP and his wife and another couple they had with them from their church. They came to Indy area for a wedding, and decided to spend Sunday Morning service with us in Greenfield.

I enjoyed meeting them, they seemed like fine people.

I absolutely love the GNC. I have met more wonderful people because of it.

So now I just need to meet Jhlent.

[Webmaster]

Forever,

My family and I will be in New Castle Friday eve, and part of Saturday for Pastor Howard's Labor Day services.

Bro. Flemming

[foreverblessed]

Bro. Flemming,
I would love to meet you and your wife, but if the good Lord willing, I am taking my kids on vacation for the Labor Day weekend. We are leaving Friday.

I sure do hope to meet you soon though. Be sure to let me know when you come to this area.

They all have escaped from the asylum..:yeah:

FB speaks about the priviledge of meeting others, however, I think the priviledge belongs to those who are meeting her....she is such a sweetheart! It's only been just over a week since spending time with her, and it seems like it's been so long ago already. I miss her company, and Third's as well. She is also sweet!

Me...

[servant]

Searching,
YOU miss 'em? What about ME? I only got to spend a few hours with 'em (and you), you got a whole week!

Serv :)

[searching]

Ummm....I got three days with Third and four with FB, that's hardly a week!!

I so did enjoy meeting you and Stmatt and your families, and hope to again someday soon. Your church was great, and seeing Chad was a nice surprise as well (even though I saw him at YC and didn't know it was HIM!).

I have a question. Are you going to be at church on Sept. 3?

Me...

[servant]

Searching,
Actually, I was planning on laying out that night. Just kidding!!! Of course I'll be there (Lord willing, that is). :banana:

Searching, what exactly is sweet about me, I just don't see it? ;) It must have been all the candy I ate on the way down to TN. :) My kids will inform anyone, don't mess with me... I'm a mean mom! :laugh: I would like to think I have a kind heart, wonder why my kids think so different of me? Thanks for the complement though, I enjoyed being with you too.


Jhlent... the five of them looked sane enough to me! Maybe, just maybe YOUR the one who has escaped! :D

Watch out Lisa, we know who has escaped his initials are jhl and I believe he was on "America's Most Wanted". :yeah:

Hey thanks JSP,

We enjoyed you all coming. Sunday night was even better. John said he came Sunday morning with a message for the church, but when he saw so many visitors there, he felt he had to preach to them again. I believe the church is getting ready for a big break! :)

I'll keep you all posted, thanks for praying.

[jhlent]

Well I hope that they were on their Medication while they were visiting…..:goof:

[foreverblessed]

And your going back home to visit this weekend?

Boy! Did I miss all you crazy folks!!!

You are all some of the greatest people on earth!
Although, I don't think I have met any of you in person, I want to say a big "Thank you" to the GNC for the opportunity to "meet" all these wonderful people. :D

[jhlent]

And I was going to bring out some fresh Italian Sausage for the week end....

[searching]

MARIE!!!!! Where in the world have you been???

I missed you.

Me...

[Marie]

LOLOL:D
I've been visiting my family and looking for a job back home.
I have been gone a month and back for about 24 hours and only had two phone messages (except for business calls). I was beginning to feel VERY lonely! But a couple of hours on here and my smile is back. Thanks girls! It really is nice to be missed. :o Hehe
Next time this computer is coming with me! Even if I have to carry it on my lap!!! (they only allow you 2 pieces of luggage underneath and two carry on's, one under the seat in front of you and one in the overhead compartment. But you can have a small child on your lap, so... maybe I could put the cpu under the seat, keyboard in the overhead, mouse in my pocket and just deguise the monitor and carry it on my lap...);) Somehow I don't think it would work. LOL A lap top would be nice, but oh well...

[foreverblessed]

Hey Marie! Missed you, good to see you back. :)

[Felicity]

Marie.......
I missed you too. SO glad to see you back. It just didn't seem the same here without you. :)

[JSP]

Sis Marie,

I don't know you but I am sure I will before long.

If you live in Canada are you going to be at General conference?

Toronto in September.

Maybe we should see who is going to be there from the GNC and make a time and place to meet, what do you think?

:D :D :D

[jhlent]

Hey - do I know you JSP...??

[JSP]

Too well I'm afraid JHL.

By the way I think I found a generator, its in a 31" Gulfstream we are looking at tomorrow.;)

Hi JSP, I'm always happy to meet "new" brothers and sisters. Especially fellow Canadians:)

I'm afraid General conference is out.:( I'm moving in the next couple of weeks, so won't be able to make it. Besides Esther (my daughter) is terrified of SARS. LOL I don't blame her though, she is one of those kids that catches everything. If there are measles or chicken pox (she has had them 6 times!)or something going around, she gets it. Sooo...unless they move General conference a looonnngg way from Toronto, we won't be there. LOL

By the way, do you mind if I ask what part of Canada you are from? There aren't many Canadians on here.

[JSP]

By the way, do you mind if I ask what part of Canada you are from? There aren't many Canadians on here. [/B][/QUOTE]


Sis Marie,

I am from lower Canada (Michigan).

Sorry about your daughter being sensitive to illness, we will pray for her.

They say SARS is not a threat now so we are going to General Conference in Toronto.

I have never been to Toronto, they say it is beautiful.

:)

[Marie]

Yes, I've heard it is beautiful. Haven't been any farther east than the Sask/Man border myself. It would be nice to see it. One of these days, I want to travel accross Canada from westcoast to eastcoast (uhhum...:o avoiding the mountains though!)

I hope you are able to make it.
Maybe we should plan a Canadian GNC gathering?:tup:

[drummerboy_dave]

It's the Apostolic World Christian Fellowship, an organization, established to bring the 170 and something, apostolic organizations together. Their website is: http://www.awcf.org/

Drummerboy,

Hey... THANKS fr the info on AWCF... I didn't have a clue... I've never heard of it before... I'm going to check out the site... Maybe it will have some information I've been looking for...

Friday Oct. 31 – I met up with a “Strange” man……

This “Strange” man also took me out to Lunch…

I was very blessed to have met up with Bro. R. Strange “Adoniyah”
We had a wonderful time fellowshipping.

We had a great lunch – really good physical food and Awesome Spiritual Food

There really was not much of a surprise in meeting Him for the first time…
He is as His post show him to be….
A Good Man, A Man that Loves the Lord.

I was blessed to have that fellowship – We talked of many thing and the Lord was moving amongst us – from the restaurant to his truck

I really enjoyed my self immensely – of the 4 day trip – that afternoon was the best part of it all………

I am looking forward to meeting up with you once again my “Friend”

[servant]

Bro Lent,
Welcome back! I met your buddy JSP yesterday. I wish I could've spent more time with him than I did.

I think You would have really enjoyed it if you were able.

My Dear Friends John & Jeany are great people.

I'd LOVE to meet Bro. Strange in person.

My wife and I have met Phil Jones in person. He's a great man and one with a heart after souls. Bro Yohe can attest to that... Actually, that's another person I'd love to meet.

One of these days... :)

Bro. Strange is a man with a burden for God to save a lost and dying world.
I would have loved to have known him when he did his tent revivals.
The sad part is four walls have knocked out some wonderful times in God as people don't feel threatened in a tent and listen more closely I believe!

NW and I have met Bro. Adoniyah so nytxn you and your wife would be blessed to meet him also.

Bro. Adoniyah you are always on our heart and in our prayers. Please never forget to pray for NW and myself.

Love Ya' in Jesus!!!..............Cherokee

[Cherokee]

Welcome back JH. And should know that you and DL would get started on the strange fixins'. LOL

Love Ya' in Jesus!!!....Cherokee

[jhlent]

Hey there Sis.... next time I am down that way I also hopw to meet you and yours....:)

[Adoniyah]

Well, well, whadayaknow. I appreciate all of your kind and sweet remarks. Rest assured that the love, admiration for all of you are deeply rooted in my soul.

It was indeed a beautiful move of the spirit of the Lord among just the two of us, bro. Lent and I. The warm rapport was very much evident as we two brethern shared, wept and testified to each other. The Lord in his Word was greatly magnified.

I'll will never forget the visit with Bro. and Sis. Dever. It was also a time of blessed sharing, deep affection among us and the magnifying of the Lord in His blessed Word.

You are right Sister Dever, I indeed have a great burden to see the lost saved, the sick, pain racked bodies healed and the prison doors of the captive broken down.

Without a deliverance ministry, we have no ministry at all. Jesus was a deliverer who taught his disciples for 3 1/2 years to be deliverers also. They were. Read the Acts of the Apostles.

I have had a burden to start a "Apostolic School of Deliverance." It would be similar to a Bible School, but much different with a much different focus. Also, I've had a burden to start a school of Apostles and Prophets. There are those around that are called to be both Apostles and Prophets but have no one to train and to mentor them in their calling. Most often, if they were to mention their calling to their Pastor, he would be at a loss as to how to help them.

I believe that men and women with a calling in their life should be taught far more than just a lot of doctrine, history, eschatology, hermaneutics, on and on so typical of today's bible schools. They should be school of Deliverers that they may impact a sick old world with the Gospel both "hearing and seeing" the signs and wonders as they saw Philip in the book of Acts.

Thanks all. I didn't start to unburden my heart as I started this post, but I did. I have never spoken these things before, but I feel that I can do it among those that I love and care for as much as I do all of you.

With Love,
Bro. Strange

...– We talked of many thing and the Lord was moving amongst us – from the restaurant to his truck

I am looking forward to meeting up with you once again my “Friend”

Sir, for you yankees; it is not a TRUCK. It's a Texas Cadillac. Any Texas worth a cactus has a Texas Cadillac, a glass gun case with place for at least six or eight guns and a bar-b-que smoker made from at least a 30 inch steel gas pipe.

I am looking forward to seeing you again, as soon as possible.

Looking forward to also seeing Sister Ruth and JSP and his darling.

With Love,
Bro. Strange

[stmatthew]

There is no doubt that I will be meeting my Elder Brother in the near future. Actually, I am still in for a time of prayer and fasting. And since I am in the process of moving towards the Gatlinburg area, I will be looking for a place to meet :D.

[Adoniyah]

Come on down my little comrade in arms. I'm waiting on you. You'll find me in Rockland Texas working on a house that I am building. It will be my last home on this side of chilly Jordan.

Fast and pray my soldier friend. The Lord has a great work for you. The Prophetic anointing is on you. You faith will inspire many to believe God for a mighty miracle of deliverance.

I love you though I have not seen your face. But, I know that heaven's love light shines there so bright. PRAISE GOD!

[jhlent]

How about it Brother Burdette ...???

[foreverblessed]

Ok, I get to revive this thread again. I like to meet new friends! :)

I met our wild and wacky friend John Lent. I also met his sister MsMaryMac.

I also had the pleasure of meeting the Webmaster of FCF.. Michael Flemming.. and his wife Jill.

I had already met Thirdgeneration, but was priveliged to meet Mr. Thirdgeneration.

I hate that it happened under the circumstances of death, but I truly enjoyed meeting everyone.

Love to all, Lisa

Not true, Me.

You and I have met. Albeit, before I came on this board.

As far as I know, Searching is the only person on this board that I have met in person.

[searching]

I'm not sure where you pulled that quote from my friend, but that had to have been said before May of this year!! LOL! I have met several people from the GNC since then.

I have met you and your family about a year before coming to the GNC and you are wonderful folks, but you already knew that! I know I promised to come visit this year before Christmas, but it doesn't look possible right now. Hopefully before Easter. Pray for me brother, I really need it at this time...for a different matter.

I love you and your family, including the church family there in Richmond. Tell them I said hello.

Me...

Sis. Lisa,

It was good to meet all of you. I, too, wish it had been under better circumstances. But, we all know Jim would not want us to grieve, but to rejoice in his victory.

Lisa, you are a great help to FCF. JHL, you were great. Ms. MerryMac, if JHL just had your class....:D ....and of course, Mr. and Mrs. Generation, what great people, what great burdens to do something for God. I love you all.

Bro. Mike- That is a double ouch! How did my sweet husband and I get to be known as Mr. and Mrs. when we are talking about the family of God? I know Foverblessed started it! Blame it on the woman! Maybe you can have Mrs. Flemming get on and clarify your intent. :D

Really and truly, we so enjoyed fellowshipping with the members of the Cafe; even though it was bittersweet given the circumstances.

I haven't followed JHLent's postings too often since I haven't spent as much time at the Cafe; but OH MY! Sexism lives on! (And yet I still enjoyed JHLent immensly).

Perhaps, it was because he keeps such good company. It was a treat to meet his sister, MsMaryMac. She has such a sweet spirit about her and God knows she needs it with her brother around to whom rules don't normally apply.... Ha!

Bro. Mike's wife was also a delight to get to know. But I already knew I would like her because of the great job she has been doing as the leader of "Jill's Neighborhood" forum at Faithchildforum.com. Bro. Mike and Sister Jill make a great couple and I pray their church grows and prospers.

Last, but by no means least; it was good to see my friend; Foreverblessed again. Even when she is suppose to be the lead car in the group and is so entertained by her passengers; that she completely forgets to drive in a way that makes it easy for the out of state people to follow! But she sure is wonderful anyhow!

Faithchild was a unique individual with lots of interesting friends. I am richer for having met some of them this week. What a great group of people! ;)

LOL@making fun of Lisa's driving!!! I'm shutting up because she knows how I drive too!

LOL!! Hey I will have you to know that I am a person who can't do two things at once. I am not that talented.

My problem was... I was the lead car (being from Indy) and I had JHlent talking 90 miles an hour... and I was TRYING to keep up with the conversation and get us to the right place. I wasn't doing a good job.

I am a fast driver to begin with...so I sorta forgot I had people following me... Third gives me a call on the cell to tell me to slow down, I had left poor ol Webmaster behind somewhere. I had to pull over to see if he was still following. He was.. he's cool, he's from IN!! :redcool:

Then.. I get off the interstate and realize I had taken them to the hotel instead of Cracker Barrel... DUH...:eek: Lisa!!!.. so I get back on I70 and we lead us to where we are supposed to be. See, I bet everyone behind me didn't even know I had lead them wrong in the first place. I only had to admit my mistake to Jlent and MsmerryMac. :D

IT IS ALL JHLENTS fault, he talks and talks and talks, and if he isn't talking to you, he is talking to someone on a cell phone lol!! :D

And jhlent has enough NERVE to tell me that he is fearing for his life.. like I am a dangerous driver or something!!?????
:huh: :huh: :huh:

[foreverblessed]

Well Searching.. seeing that I took a whole trip driving 800 miles or so with you.. you should just be thankful that you got home in one piece. ;)

:huh: :huh: :huh:
I sure did a LOT od PRAYING for our LIVES....

I was on the phone calling others to PRAY for Us in the Car...

[foreverblessed]

Third my dear good friend... I meant nothing by calling your wonderful husband MR. Thirdgeneration. I know..I just never call anyone Bro. and Sis. or very rarely unless they are OLD..so really that is a compliment!! Be glad I didn't refer to you as Bro. and Sis!!!!! ;)

[searching]

I did some of the driving though, remember? Besides, on my way home from your house, the second car broke down.....LOL.

The Honda that broke down coming home from Youth Congress is long gone after not only the alternator going out, but then the rack and pinion went out too. With over 225K miles on it, wasn't worth the money to fix it. Then the Buick goes out and we still don't know what's wrong with it. It's sitting in the driveway. We got a Lumina and a Dakota truck to replace both vehicles, but hubby reminds me that it wasn't HIM who drove those cars last!!

And to think I almost wiped out that nice Caddy (I think it was) with your van when we were coming into Pigeon Forge!! I'm not accustomed to looking in the other lane for traffic after midnight!!! I live in a small town, even the traffic lights quit working after 11PM here!

Lisa, I do miss seeing you kiddo. Even though I didn't know Bro. Yohe, I so badly wanted to come and support his family. I keep them in my prayers.

Me...
