Turning Point Conference  this year was gloriously attended by Apostolic Power and the reality of the Spirit of God as I have seldom seen it.

A total of twenty received the Baptism of the Holy Ghost and six were baptized in the Mighty Saving Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of their Sins.  Acts 2:38  Wonderful - Powerful!

A Presbyterian Pastor's wife powerfully with great demonstration of emotion and joy received the Holy Ghost and was baptized in Jesus' Name the next night.  the following evening to the service came her Pastor husband and he also fell to the floor with powerful Presence of God speaking with tongues.  It was explosively exciting!

Anna Bracken, the daughter, who is now attending a Christian School for non Chinese students was present bringing eight of the students from school with her to Turning Point.  These lovely young people are all children of missionaries in this area of Asia.  I took pure delight in working with and knowing them.  Such hunger and love for God was refreshing - most inspiring - and enlightening all at the same time.  Noteworthy to say here that:  People who know the Word of God have the power to help more people in this world than anyone else!  Anna has literally enlightened the entire school including faculty members and is loved by all!  What a wonderful testimony to an even more Wonderful God!  AMEN!

One girl with knee problems was healed before the other student's eyes.  Three of them received the Baptism of the Holy Ghost!  Two of them already had received this birth of the Spirit experience as on the Day of Pentecost - 33 AD.

I sincerely wish I had photos of all these students - I genuinely loved them all!

Here is a grandson and a Grandfather in his 80's.  A Turning Point flyer was given to him by his grandchildren.  He does not speak English nor Mandarin Chinese, but rather a aboriginal dialect from the country of Taiwan.  He looked, and looked and looked at the photo of people with uplifted hands on the flyer and kept it on his person and I understand near him when he slept.  He came to the conference and watched everything - everything we did, he did...  I went down to him about the third night and with his grandchildren, prayed him through to the Baptism of the Holy Ghost.  Wonderful beyond words...  A highlight of my life and ministry... I can never forget him...  He had believed in Jesus a long, long time and now He has Him in His Fullest!

This year in February 2006, Grandfather was back and I had the honor of baptizing him in the all Saving Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of his sins.  He came out of the water speaking with tongues and danced before the Lord several times throughout T. P. Conference.   A total delight and Spiritually moving for all of us, but for me especially!

The following collage and photos with comments continue this glorious testimony and love story in Jesus!

Of all the photos

taken of

Grandfather's

 baptism,  this is my

 favorite.  He was

 so excited to be

 baptized in Jesus'

 Name.  His longing

 and delight came

 through in his every

 movement of

 worship!

Outstanding Statement:   "The Book of Acts is our pattern for Life"  (leader of Church in China)   

I feel such conviction for all of us.  We live far beneath our privileges.  However,  God is helping and a rebirth of Apostolic Power, Gifts of the Spirit, and the Five-fold Ministry are upon us as never before.  Something great, not small, is the future for the Church of Jesus Christ in this earth for the closing hours of time!   The world will see and know before His Soon Coming!!!
