Even under the storms and  heavy rains, guest arrived one by one.  We were so blessed to have our District Director, Rev. Carl Swearson, and Mrs Keiko Takahashi, the district's Japanese Missionary living in MPLS center drive 225 miles to participate. Keiko is a magnificent musician and music teacher. Her beautiful Bach arrangement invited the Holy Spirit into our gathering.

From this moment on, let's stop all war with this everlasting True Love.
