We had a great tour guide that took us to some special places that Bro. Branham told us about on the tapes.
Bunker Hill Church
60-0930 VISIONS.OF.WILLIAM.BRANHAM_ JEFFERSONVILLE.IN FRIDAY_
" And I happened to be attracted to look over there. And I happened to think, "Well, looky here. Here's that old church setting down here." And if you're ever at it, it's the Bunker Hill Church. And I looked over on the side of Bunker Hill Christian Church, and there was a tombstones of the graveyard, right in front of the church. And I went over there. I said, "Now, you all got them letters. I never been that country before in my life. Never was in above there, anywhere, in my life." And I said, "You get them names and numbers and come over here and see if they ain't the same one this tombstone." And there it was, just exactly. I said, "That's it. We're on the right road now." That was as the Angel of the Lord... See, I'd have passed right on by it and not know it. So it... Oh, He's perfect.
And so we rode on and on. Directly, I met a man, and I said, "Could you tell me where South Boston is, sir?"
He said, "You jog to the right and the left, and you know, so forth like that..."
And we just kept on going. So after while, we'd come into... I noticed, I come into a little place and it had a... kind of a little village-like, and I--I looked and I said, "That's it. That's it, right there." I said, "There is the... There--there's that yellow storefront." And I said, "Now, you watch, a man is going to come out of there with a blue overalls on, a white corduroy--a yellow corduroy cap, with a white mustache, and tell me where to go."
From there we went on to "The Bubbling Springs"
63-1028 PARDON_ TUCSON.AZ MONDAY_
"It was always the happiest spring I ever seen in my life. Great springs in Indiana, they bubble up with that fine cold water, of limestone water. And one day I set down by the spring, to talk to it, just like I guess that Moses would have set, to the burning bush, to speak with it. And I said, "Little spring, what makes you so happy, that you're bubbling all the time? If I come here in the wintertime, you're bubbling. If I come spring, autumn, summer, whenever it is, you're bubbling. Is it because that maybe, perhaps, you're so happy that the rabbits come and drink out of you?"
Well, now, if he could talk, he'd say, "No, that's--that's not it."
I'd say, "Well, maybe because deers come by and drink out of you."
He'd say, "No, that's not it."
I'd say, "Now, well, maybe it's because I come by, once in a while, and drink from you."
"No, that's not it. I'm glad that they all come and drink, but that's not the reason that I'm bubbling all the time."
"Well, what makes you bubble like that? What makes you so happy, always gushing up?"
If he could talk, he'd say, "It's not me. It's something behind me, pushing me."
Big thanks to my brother, Mike, for being our tour guide!
We then headed to Totten Ford bridge.
60-0611E FAITH.IS.THE.SIXTH.SENSE
" Finished up my revival... And I had about sixty or seventy-five to baptize the end of that week. And she promised God if she could be healed, she'd go be baptized up at a place called Totten Ford in the Little Blue River there. Well, day...
When the day come to be baptized, I walked out there. And there had been a preacher, he had ridiculed me on water baptism. Oh, my, my. And he'd had a revival in a tent just on top the hill. And while I was out there in the water baptizing, I said, "It just seems to me that the angels of God are setting along." And every one of his congregation (that muddy water with pretty white dresses on) walked out there and was baptized in Christian baptism, every one of them. That's right. Oh, what a time."
On the way home we went through Milltown.
47-0412 FAITH.IS.THE.SUBSTANCE
"And I was at my church, the Milltown Baptist church, where I went to hold a revival. Many of you seen in the little book called, "Jesus Christ The Same Yesterday And Forever."
A little girl in there that weighed forty-seven pounds, twenty-seven years old, weighed forty-seven pounds, by the name of Georgie Carter, with tubercular; and she belonged to this same church. And she said the people through the neighborhood said, "Let..." She'd been on her back now for nine years and six months. And said, "Let her get well and we'll believe it."
But, my friends, she's my piano player in the Milltown Baptist church tonight. But do they believe? No, even one raised from the dead, they don't believe in it.
Saturday VGR had a tour and we really enjoyed seeing the storehouse.
Bro. Branham's pulpit.
Bro. Branham's gravestone.
We headed to Ky to visit my brother, Billy, (the hillbilly) Do you know of anyone that swings their puppies? hehe
Billy took us to the woods to show us a coon den, but no one was home.
Trying to find the coons.....
Billy played his banjo for us.
What's a visit to Ky without going to see Granny Smith? I told Faith she's probably the only girl that has a grandma that still uses a hand pump for water at the kitchen sink. She also burns a woodstove for cooking and heating.
Mom and Dad back from their bus route. Time for breakfast!
