Last Sunday night, a gentleman with a friend came to service.  Never seen
any of them before.  At the end of service, (which, by the way, was a good
one:) ), the congregation stood around the alter to pray together.  I saw
the first guy standing in front of me, I didn't know where his friend was
at the time.  He had his hands up and was worshipping the Lord.  Since I
had never seen him before I guessed maybe he had the Holy Ghost and was
just a visitor from another church.  So, I go to another part of the alter
where something else was going on.  A few moments later, I see the same man
come forth towards the pastor who, at the time,  was behind the alter
anointing people with oil.  The pastor leaned over and asked what he could
do for him.  The man replied, "I want to receive the Holy Ghost."  My heart
was quickened and glad.  So, the pastor anointed him and about six or so of
us laid hands on him and began to pray him through.  It wasn't even a
minute when he received the Holy Ghost and MARCHED from one end of the
alter to the other.  Half the house, when they say this, rejoiced greatly. 
After that, he was then baptized in the name of Jesus.  Just to see that
man so happy moved my heart and made me realize that this is what it's all
about.  Getting people saved.  We haven't seen anyone receive the Holy
Ghost for a while, so this was inspiring.  Praise the lord!!!!
Bro. Aaron
I look forward to meeting him in the air.
