As anything it took time for the people to accept the fact that I really meant that...but time has proved that...
If I wanted to I could probably hold any position for our people love me BUT I do not want a position or authority...I am confortable just doing whatever is needed...
Right now I have had to help a lot because Brother Alvear is in the states and our son Arlei that was our co pastor moved to the jungle. We have other brothers that help but are not ready or mature enough for a lot of ministerial load on them...so like tonight I organized the brothers that went to the village churches...they still are in the stage here that they depend much on Brother Alvear. I stayed home and cooked supper and my other boys are also helping out...
I have been out most of the day...visiting...
My greatest joy is seeing them do whatever...but if they stumble I am around to give motherly advice...
I personally do not enjoy speaking in the presence of men ut if the need be I will arise and make up the gap...
Brother Vaughn, I know you do not know me but in the 10 years we have been here you could count on one hand how many times I have sat on the platform... I like to sit on the front bench and worship.

and thus the reason I have called you a PRECIOUS LADY, you are regarded highly among my family.. no matter our disagreements.... I loved your response
