GRAY WHALES BREACH NEAR MY BEACH!

I had one of the greatest experiences ever! At least a dozen gray whales swam by my house in Lincoln City, Oregon. The whales were migrating so close to the beach that I couldn't believe it! They were spouting right before where the breakers start coming into shore. For the first time in my life I watched a whale do a complete breach! It came out of the water and slowly made an arch dive like a porpoise. It sort of hung in the air for a moment before plunging down into the water again. It had to be one of the most incredible sights I have ever witnessed! I watched them out of my bedroom window for at least 20 minutes showing their heads, backs, or tails, before they left to the deeper ocean and out of sight. I thank God for allowing me to have this incredible experience once in my lifetime!!

FINANCIAL INDEPENDENCE

We have been giving a “FINANCIAL INDEPENDENCE” seminar in Todedo, Oregon, for the last three weeks. It was a free class with no offering taken or honorarium given. Free evening meals were offered and the room was filled with people.

The first week we gave $100.00 bills to each attendee and asked them to find somebody in need and pass it on to them. We were trying to get people liberated from the control of money in their lives. If they kept the $100.00 bill nobody would know but themselves. The following week the testimonies were heartwarming to hear of all the people helped! People were taught how to give a tithe (10%) of all their income to God and then get set to reap HIS blessings according to the Bible (Malachai 3:6-10).

This last week we taught how to get out of debt and next week will be giving instructions on how to become financially independent.
Already, we have testimonies of lives that are now radically changed!
