God's presence in an Anglican Church

Last night I returned to an Anglican Church where the Holy Spirit is moving powerfully (and has been for a couple of months) during a mid-week service they are hosting. Visitors are coming from a number of different Churches. We had gone and taken a team to minister about a month ago, but last night I simply went to receive. Receive I did! A number of people were touched as God began to release a number of words of knowledge. At one point, I got a word for acid reflux and a friend of mine responded.

They love controversy, they thrive on failure and they will do all they can to find a quote taken out of context to make anybody look bad who they disagree with. They will do so in the name of "truth". They believe they have something the rest of us need -
