Mother Brown testifying at the Church of the Blessed Trinity (Centerville, VA)

There is something here I envy.  I sense a release in such expression like a dance which cannot be explained, but flows from the heart.  I honestly cannot understand what Sister Brown is saying, but I feel it.  In an anglo Mennonite community where we don’t even “amen” a moving point in the Sunday service, we have something to learn from such deeply expressed gratitude.
