(Tope Folarin)--OUR HEADS MOVE simultaneously,
and we smile at the tall, svelte man who strides purposefully down the aisle to
the pulpit. Once there, he raises both of his hands then lowers them slightly.
He raises his chin and says let us pray.
“Dear Father, we come to you today, on
the occasion of this revival, and we ask that you bless us abundantly, we who
have made it to America, because we know we are here for a reason. We ask for
your blessings because we are not here alone. Each of us represents dozens,
sometimes hundreds of people back home. So many lives depend on us Lord, and the
burden on our shoulders is great. Jesus, bless this service, and bless us. We
ask that we will not be the same people at the end of the service as we were at
the beginning. All this we ask of you, our dear savior, Amen.”
