Dear Brothers and Sisters,

      Hello, my name is Gabrielle T. Mounts.  I subscribed to Higher-Fire
last week, and have been enjoying all the interesting articles and
discussions coming through my mail now.
      I live in Gibson City, Illinois, and attend Gibson City Pentecostal
Church.  I was introduced to ya'll through Bro. Tyler Nally (he also
lives in Gibson City and attends the same church), who sent me the
software to get me started in e-mail, then started sending tidbits from
Higher-Fire.  I guess I got tired of the little tidbits and wanted all
instead, so I graduated. 
      My home state used to be Florida up till this June. I was born in
Ft. Myers, and raised in Arcadia.  I moved up here with my husband of
almost two years, Christopher Mounts, and my 15 month old son, Ashley.
      Gibson City is where my husband's mother's family resides.  In
fact, most of the church is made up of his family.  His uncle, John
Koonce is the Pastor here, and his grandfather, Bob Koonce is the senior
pastor.  It's quite literally what you would call a Church *family*.  :-D
Hee, Hee.
       I am second generation Pentecostal, my mother and father being 
the first to be baptized in Jesus' name, and be filled with the Holy
Ghost.  I was raised from the time I was one at the Apostolic Church of
Jesus Christ in Arcadia pastored by Rev. Peter Kennedy, and was baptized
there. I received the Holy Ghost at a Church youth camp when I was ten.  
       Chris and I are just plain saints in the Church, though Chris has
told me in the past that he has been called to the ministry.  If and
when Chris decides to quit running from that calling, well right now I
don't know that answer. I'm just trying serve God the best I can until
that time comes.  
       Thank you all for the things you post on this listing.  It is such
an encouragement to read them.  

God grant his blessing to you all,
Sis. Gabrielle
