Southern Illinois IGNITE Conference

We are having our first annual youth conference this weekend at our church! The youth decided to name it Ignite and tonight was our first night! Pastor Chris Smith from Love & Truth in Jackson, TN is our guest evangelist and wow is all I can say!!!!

Tonight one guy was so drunk in the Holy Ghost, I thought we might have to carry him out to the car !!! He prophesied over two young children (one of them being mine...yeah!!!)...young people gave their testimonies and a lot of the youth at the conference could relate and were ministered to!

Love & Truth in Crainville also came over tonight and it was so cool and exciting to meet their great group of youth!!

Will let you know how tomorrow's last two sessions go! We are also dedicating our newly remodeled youth room tomorrow, so that's exciting as well!!!

Night ya'll!!!

Re: Southern Illinois IGNITE Conference

I got a text from Pastor Chris this morning, asking us to pray for him. He was going to preach on unforgiveness this morning and on the fire of God this afternoon. I trust that they will finish up this afternoon with a HUGE powerful move of the Spirit of God!!

Re: Southern Illinois IGNITE Conference

And we did Sherri!!!! It was really incredible seeing young people who have never even prayed out loud before, run to the altar with hands upraised when he called for those wanting the fire of God to fall in their life!!!

The forgiveness message was tough goings this morning, had a lot of resistance. But the second session really broke a lot of the young people!! I think the first session's message on unforgiveness set the stage for the second session.

We hope they enjoyed themselves...we loved having them! Our whole church was moved by this conference! So IMO, the conference was a HUGE success!!!

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Is this scriptural? Paul didn't address this in his letter to the Corinthians!!
