Miracle Days

1953: I n 1953, my dad built a new church building on 8th

street in Comanche. He wrote these following words

from his diary:

“We started a church in Comanche, Oklahoma. We finally

found some lots to build on. We didn’t have the money to buy

the three lots to build the church, but God told me to borrow

money on my home and I did. I borrowed $150.00 to help pay

for three lots. God sure did bless us. We want everybody to pray for us; that we all make heaven our home. Our children

and grandchildren. ”

1954:

My mother was seriously ill and was scheduled for

major surgery. My parents had been listening to Pastor

J.C. Hibbard from Dallas, Texas, on the radio, who

preached divine healing. This led my dad to make the

200-mile journey to Dallas, to have Pastor Hibbard pray

for my mom before her surgery.
