Sunday Night!







So this Sunday night, Michael (my cousin) and his girlfriend, Brittany, got baptized! It was so amazing and beautiful! If someone had told me even a few months ago that they would be going to church, getting baptized and seeking after they Holy Ghost, I'd never have believed you. Just goes to show you that God's ways are bigger than yours and He can do ANYTHING! I am still so excited!!! As soon as Michael came out of the water, he was worshiping and praising God. He was close to getting the Holy Ghost again! Keep praying for him and Brittany! I believe they will both get it! SOON!


After service (which was AWESOME, by the way), we went out to eat with the youth of Citrus Heights church! Sooo much fun! I had a blast! It was hilarious! :) Ahhhh, memories!

Hope you enjoy the pictures!!

Exciting News!

Hi everyone! I'm so SO SOOOO excited because it seems as though God is just unraveling things that we've been praying for, for so long. I've never really been able to stand back and say, wow, I can totally see what God is doing and how he's using this person to help out this situation, and so on and so forth. I had the awesome experience of going to West Coast Conference last week, and while I was there, on the very first night, I got a text message from my cousin's girlfriend that that night at church, my cousin, Michael Morgan, was up at the front during alter call and reaching out to God and almost got the Holy Ghost! He was really close a couple of times! Now, for those of you who don't know Michael, this is HUGE! He's had to deal with a lot of hard things in his life and he never really got into the whole "church thing". Until one day, he started becoming sensitive to what God was telling him and for the past few weeks, he's been going to church, and his girlfriend, Brittany, has been going with him. She's never been to an Apostolic church before and she's had quite the experience! :) But God's really been dealing with them and it's amazing to see how far they have come. So I was so excited to hear about all of that on Wednesday night, but on Friday morning, I got even BIGGER news!! I received a call from Brittany and she gave me the best news I've heard in a long time! She and Michael are getting baptized in Jesus name Sunday (today) night at 6:30 at the Citrus Heights church! God is so amazing! And He knows exactly what he's doing too...because this is a HUGE witness to my Uncle Greg, who backslid a couple years ago, to his new wife, Christie, who's never been to an Apostolic church or knows anything about it, to Ryan, Michael's brother, who doesn't seem to have an interest in going to church, and to all of Brittany's church, who has a Catholic background and know nothing about an Apostolic church either. Isn't it amazing how God can use just 1 person to touch so many others?? I am in shock, I shouldn't be because I know God can and will do anything, but I am in amazement and excitement! I can see God working in our family, and I love it! I am praying that God will fill all of them with the Holy Ghost!! I claim it in Jesus name! Please keep them all in prayer! :)

P.S. Man, what exciting news for my 1st post! :) :) :)
