I went to the Los Angeles area to visit with my mother and my son. My mother just went into a convalescent hospital after going to the hospital several times and my son was getting hernia surgery right after joining the Marines.

My brother was concerned that my mom may not be around much longer and I have not seen her for a long time.

We are having an Encounter Weekend at our church. It is a time for individuals to be set free from bondages and get closer to God. I will be teaching 3 classes and Carmi 1 class. We will also be ministering throughout the encounter by praying and counseling with individuals. Please pray for us to walk in God's anointing. We have a variety of people coming including prostitutes, drug addicts, and "normal" people.
