By and Bye

- an indescribable gift -

The introduction to the Way of faith began at Kildonan Presbyterian Church (Winnipeg). The Rev. Brian Penny had donated his time and invited boys and girls to a youth group. The place was the historical Nesbitt Hall with the old stone walls from the 1850s. This memorable event was a well-meaning way of sharing the gospel message to us teenagers. So at the age of 13, was inspired with a desire to study the Bible (Revised Standard Version), which my grandmother had given to me. "Those who are wise understand these things; those who are discerning know them. For the ways of the Lord are right, and the upright walk in them, but transgressors stumble in them" (Hosea 14:9). Several years later, I was introduced to a Spirit-filled walk of faith at a non-denominational church. The date of my baptism is April 2, 1972 at Faith Temple with Pastor Ingrid Bergner, a prophetess. This was a Jesus People anointing of faith, love and peace. Moreover, the gifts of the Spirit have continued throughout the years according to His steadfast love and amazing grace.
