We have been overwhelmed by the wonderful responses we received to the last newsletter. Please continue to send your testimonies and memories of RRMH. Here are a few of your responses; we will have to save others for a later newsletter and some had to be shortened due to limited space.
“Thank you for the encouraging newsletter. Please keep me on your mailing list. It is such a blessing to hear what our Lord is doing at the RRMH. John and I were only there a couple of times but there is 'something wonderful' about that place. I would like to donate this money towards the construction of the picnic pavilion in memory of John L Morgan, Winchester, KY. Thank you for all you do. May the Lord bless you and keep you and give you Shalom.” Julie Morgan
“I hope someday to go there and soak in the fire of the Holy Spirit and pull and learn from the past anointed & bring it into today.” Linda Pinckert
“I would very much like to continue to receive the newsletter. I am the niece of Frank Walton, who is mentioned in the Feb/2022 newsletter. Frank is married to my father's sister, Sandra Adams Walton. I am also the granddaughter of John and Maritza Adams, who had a farm within a mile of the meetinghouse. I remember driving by the meetinghouse when I was a child. It holds a special place in my heart.
“When I took my children to visit their great-grandmother, Maritza Adams, in 1984, I took a picture of my daughter, Carolyn Taylor Payton, with her great-grandmother Maritza together looking out the window at RRMH. Then in June 2021, my granddaughter, Abigail Payton (great-great granddaughter of Maritza) and I went to tour the RRMH. In all, five generations have been to the meetinghouse. Maritza Adams, her oldest son, my father, James Donald Adams, Jan Adams Taylor, Carolyn Taylor Payton and Abigail Payton have all enjoyed this wonderful structure to our Lord. I have attached photos. Thank you so much for working to keep this sacred meetinghouse for future generations to worship in and tour.” Jan Adams Taylor
“Thank you for sending the recent newsletter. It was such a blessing to read my story and those of others who have also been greatly blessed to visit the RRMH. I would love to continue to receive these letters as it reminds me to pray for the work that is ongoing there.” Denise Hatton
"Yes, we do want the Newsletter. We are not on Facebook so it's important to keep up. Thank you for all you are doing. We drop in there occasionally and attend meetings when we can. Thanks, James C. and Joyce Joines (Editor's note) These wonderful people are ages 97 and 86. Aged warriors, but still fighting for the Lord's work. Thank you, James and Joyce. Not too many that age would even feel like getting out these days. Let alone, come out to RRMH through grass, uneven ground and climb steps to the meetinghouse.

Revival June 16-18, 2022 at RRMH, A Cry for Mercy Revival was held. It was led through Wildfire Ministries led by Chris and Kristina Board and was nothing short of glorious. These meetings have been held twice a year for the past few years. From attending in the past, I knew I was going to experience the thick presence of God all weekend. I brought a prayer partner I had just met a couple weeks previously by divine appointment. Every night, the music leaders lead us to worship.
The preaching was anointed and powerful. It was obvious the Holy Spirit was running the show. While preaching, Chris Board would sense that God wanted to speak through another person and would graciously hand the microphone over to the person that God had chosen for that moment. So far in my life, I have not experienced anything more amazing than being among other people that have surrendered their lives to Jesus and His love. It is the sense of freedom, knowing I'm in a very loving place, and the presence of God that keeps me coming back for more. Dr Lisa Ely
