DAY OF BREAKTHROUGH - EMANUEL PDC, TWIN CITY, GA - Oct 17, 2015
God put together the most amazing team for this Day of Breakthrough. I have never seen this much unity in a team of 26 people! The majority of them spent the entire day ministering to the men ... many one on one out in the yard! There were 12 who went for the first time and the reports I am hearing back is they are ready to go again!
God put together the most amazing team for this Day of Breakthrough. I have never seen this much unity in a team of 26 people! The majority of them spent the entire day ministering to the men ... many one on one out in the yard! There were 12 who went for the first time and the reports I am hearing back is they are ready to go again!
The team lined up as the 144 men came out into the yard, shaking their hands and greeting them. The Elijah Project sang and ministered as they came into the yard. God gave us perfect weather and it was an awesome day! We started out with The Elijah Project singing another song; then Thomas Simmons gave his testimony, followed by a drama "Turn Around." Mary Simmons then sang a special just before Wayne Smith brought the message. I had planned on taking a lot of pictures but I spent a great deal of time talking with the new Supt. which was such a blessing! When Wayne finished his message, he told the men at the altar service that he didn't even want them to come up if they are not serious. Men came up front weeping, some falling to their knees. It was amazing!
They did count at 11 AM while the band continued to play. Some of the men went in but 107 remained in the yard with us. We started up a little before 11:30 AM with some men from the Emanuel Choir singing. We then had a little fun with the song "Shackles" by Mary Mary and got the men dancing. This was followed by a testimony by Marc Entrekin; the drama "Bird Cage" with Wayne Smith and Chris Schanter; music by The Elijah Project; a testimony by Blake Reese; a song by Christian Poole; the drama "Puppet Master"; testimony by Rodney Milner; more music by The Elijah Project; a dance by our dance ministry to the song "Redeemed," the Cardboard Testimony; two songs and testimony by Jacci Broughton; another song by Christian Poole and Mary Simmons; a testimony by one of the residents Peter Lee; more music by the men from Emanuel and then the closing message by Kevin Humphery. The day just flowed beautifully and the Holy Spirit moved!
Lives were changed ... including the lives of this team! Thank you team for an outstanding job! I am so thankful that He entrusted you to this ministry! I know God is smiling down on you! Jacci Blue, Kara Floyd, Christian Poole, Chris Schanter, Blake Reese, Rodney Milner, Pamela Milner, Paige Pittman, Susan Harp Entrekin, Marc Entrekin, Susan Slaven, Ed Chandler, Sheila Olmsted Stover, Wayne Gordon Smith, Julia Kay Smith, Kevin Collett, Michael Cornett, Roger Gutierrez, Scott Jones, Thomas Simmons, Mary Simmons, Terry Pink, Adrienne Pink, Kevin Humphery, Arthur Rollins
I also want to thank Supt. Jeffery Coleman; Chief of Security Watson; Sgt. Brantley; CO Nobles; CO Williamson; Jannie Davis; and everyone else from Emanuel who helped to make this day possible. God bless you!
