As mentioned in the last update, last Wednesday, Thursday and Friday I attended Azusa Pacific University Board of Trustee meetings. The agenda was full and the relationships at the board and executive level filled my soul. The students are always inspiring and their smiling faces are full of hope and optimism. These young people are passionate about all they’re endeavoring to prepare for and accomplish in their lifetime.
As we concluded the meetings Friday afternoon, President Jon Wallace felt prompted to pray for Irene and Debra Ross, the wife of Todd, who is inflicted with brain cancer. JoAnna and I had sat with Todd and Debra the evening before at dinner where we were inspired by their testimony of HOPE, OPTIMISM and deep FAITH and TRUST in God.
President Wallace asked Todd, JoAnna and me to gather in the middle of the room where approximately 50 people gathered around us, layed hands on us, and Dr. Raleigh Washington prayed. Dr. Washington, the President/CEO of Promise Keepers prayed in earnest for the healing of Irene and Debra…then prayed for JoAnna, Todd and myself.
It was a powerful experience that we’re grateful for.
Thanks for caring,
Dave
