My Disneyland-haunted-mansion-adventure!!!

So when I was about 13 or 14 years old my family went with the Abbott's family to Disneyland on the way to PSR( which is now WCC) So as sooooon as we got there, us older kids pretty much went off on our own, leaving "The babies" with my mom and Bro. and Sis. Abbott. (The babies were my two younger brothers and Denae! LOL!) Sooooooo since we were on our OWN, we decided we would risk going on the haunted mansion ride...Oooooooooo! Cause we were just like SOOOO cool! LOL
.
If you have ever riden this ride, you know that its really NOT that scary...BUT things just ALWAYS seem to happen with ME!!! Soooo I end up seated with Devi and like the WHOLE time I'm just like whooping, hollering and screaming just to be obnoxious and try and scare the people behind me! WEEEEEEEELLLL... we get to the end of the ride and it like slows down and you can see in these electronic mirrors ghosts and stuff that look like they are sitting RIGHT in between you and the other passenger...And like the WHOLE time there are like statutes and stuff that are like all creepy...but I'm just whatever...its all fake..this is lame...totally trying to scare other people.
.
The more and more we get closer to the end...I am trying to like reach out and touch the ghosts and stuff. So at one point we come to this COMPLETE stop...We are just sitting there...so OF COURSE I get bored! I look up and see this statue like SOOOO close to us! I'm like OH COOL! I'm like telling Devi, as I reach my hand out to touch the statue..."LIKE omw this statue looks SOOOOOOOOOOO REAL!" And as my hand starts touching the statues cheek, the statue...LOOKS AT ME and says..."Thats because I AM REAL!"
AAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! I yanked my hand back and screamed SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LOUD!!! It WAS A REAL MAN!!! A REAL, LIVE, BREATHING MAN!!! Like some worker that was taking a break or something!!! I was like sooooooooo freaked out for like 30 seconds....then of course HYSTERICAL LAUGHTER!!!!
.
I still can't believe I was like touching some mans cheeks!!!
Leave it TO ME!!! To make my OWN SCARY RIDE!!! LOL!
As long as I live I'll NEVER forget those words..."Thats because I AM real!"
AAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

The Votaws!!!

He has preached all over the US, China, Taiwan, the Philipines, Vietnam and many more Asian countries. He preaches in underground churches in communism countries. He converted a man on death row in prison to Christ and 3 hours before that man died he baptized him in Jesus name. He prayed the first man in Vietnam to kill and americn soldier through to the Holy Ghost and Baptized him in Jesus name. He has converted trinitartin preachers all over to the Oneness doctrine...BUT ABOVE all else...I thank God that I TOO am ONE OF THOSE souls he reached out too...he gave 7 years of his life to New York City!!! I thank God that he answered the call!!! It wasn't until his 6th & final year as pastor there, that our family came into church...we were there for 9 months before we came to AZ and then right after that the Votaws left NYC for the mission fields of Asia...I THANK God that someone had a burden for NYC!!!

Sis. Kathy!!!

This is the woman that invited my Momma to a Pentecostal church!!! She told me that she was actually new in the church herself and that she would see my mom in the front yard of our house playing with us kids and she just wanted so badly for my mom to have what she had just recieved herself. It may have been just one person that she was witnessing to at that time, but that one person has had an affect on her own five children and now its her Grandchildren that are still recieving the blessing of Sis. Kathy's witness. 25 years ago, it wasn't just my mom...I may have only been two at the time, but it was ME she was winning too! I thank God she wasn't afraid to be a witness and that she didn't give up on my mom. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. (Acts 2:39) When you decide to live for God it doesn't just stop with you!
