Sis. Nona Freeman has always been one of my favorite persons. She has amazed me at the way she has continued to travel and minister at her advanced age. Here is a true testimony that will lift and inspire you.
Sis. Nona Freeman was at First Church this morning in DeRidder. She spoke this morning and as she was coming to the end of her topic, she began to slump slowly to the floor with some trying to hold her and letting her ease down to the floor . She lay there about 10 mins., Bro.Lewis and several others prayed and scurried around to call 911.
She actually died, her eyes were set and there wasn’t a pulse. Prayer continued and in a bit she came back to and told them she wanted to finish her sermon, so lying there still behind the podium, they handed her the mike and she finished the lesson on how to be baptized, lying on the floor. They then sat her in a chair over by the pulpit.
They took her to eat and she was back at church tonight preaching for about another 45 mins. Bro. Lewis said she was resurrected, the first time he had seen that. She did not want 911 or doctor. What a hero of the faith!
First church was so blessed today to witness the power and glory of our God through this experience. She’s very weak but will not stop, I guess until she just can’t go…..Just thought everyone would like to know…Love, Nina
There was alot of prayer all over the church, just a united effort of prayer from the whole congregation.
Psalms 121: 1,2 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh the Lord.

Here is forum post dated July 6th in which a poster says this happened that day:
I talked to one of Sis. Freeman's daughter's yesterday...this did not happen. A few weeks ago her legs gave out during a service, due to painful surface blood clots in the legs.

I KNOW PERSONALLY the medical people who attended Sister Freeman.
I ate lunch today with my two sisters who were THERE. They both agreed on what happened... as told by others here.
I also know the GI speical forces guy who is a trained EMT who said "I have seen lots of dead people and she was dead."
Now, did they have a brain wave monitor on hand? well of course not. But they did have medical training and the nurses and EMT that attended her said she had no pulse and her pupils were fixed and dialated.

I know from extensive experience that without proper monitoring one cannot say conclusively that a person is dead in a short period of time. There are heart rhythms that cannot be picked up by the touch. Maybe her heart had slowed down and peripheral shutdown was evident. I'm seen many cases where the patient had no palpable heart rate and yet a monitor said that they did. Were they doing CPR?

I'm not sure on that, I believe that they did, but don't quote me on that.
