In addition, the words spoken by Gloria and Lana were so touching, enough to make me marveled by the spirit delivered as well as the words. I quite couldn't believe what I was hearing from these two wonderful, spiritual women. It was truly a blessing, just a complete and stunningly affirmative blessing.

TOGETHER WE GIVE THANKS TO OUR LOVING GOD FOR SENDING US THE GIFT OF HA NA PARK.
HA NA CAME AT A TIME WHEN WE WERE IN SUCH DIRE NEED AS A CONGREGATION,…. ONLY GOD KNEW THE RIGHT PERSON FOR THIS TIME WHILE SOME OF US DOUBTED HOW A YOUNG WOMAN, A BRAND NEW GRADUATE FROM THE VANCOUVER SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY COULD TAKE US ALL ON. BUT HA NA DID JUST THAT…. JOYFULLY BURSTING THROUGH THE PAST 16 OR SO MONTHS WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT LEADING HER.
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL AND BLESSED STORY WE HAVE ALL WITNESSED.
THANK YOU HA NA AND OUR MOST MERCIFUL GOD WHO CREATED YOU.
LANA
