Halloween was interesting on a Friday. My husband Bob and I had SOAK, a time for reading God’s Word on a specific subject and playing praise songs. We do this every Friday with our Church family. I love it. There is something special about resting in God’s presence, the Word and Worship.
I play piano, my husband Bob (also a Pastor) plays acoustic guitar. And our anointed singers Carmen (another Pastor’s wife – Jeff) and sometimes Mike add to the worship. Doug our drummer couldn’t be there this Friday. We do have 8 people in our band, however on Friday some of them have to work or have family commitments. We also have Brother Erik, a very prophetic voice at JAM (Janesville Apostolic Ministries) who shared what God told him about the upcoming church. It was exciting, and pure, and just amazing.
We are blessed with so many faithful worshippers. Thanks you Jesus. All glory and honor to You! SOAK lets us just rest in God’s Presence and minister to Him.
