Has anyone heard of Battle Cry? It is put on by Ron Luce. I went to the first one ever in San Francisco about 2 years ago. Basically it is like a giant version of ATF(Acuire the Fire), if you have heard of it or have been to one. When i went to San Francisco, of course there was thousands more people there, we were not welcomed. There were Athiests and all kinds of well...... unpleasent people having strikes everywhere around San Francisco saying,'' Go away,you don't belong here''! There were aweful signs with: Billy Graham sends you to hell! And just all kinds of blasphemous words to Jesus and God the Father. Battle Cry was held at At&t Park( Giant's Stadium). It went for one whole weekend. Battle Cry was a place were people could go for praise and worship, but most importantly, to find Jesus. There was christian bands such as: Delirious, Piller, Toby Mac and much more. Many speakers were present also, spreading their life stories that would make you burst out into tears, stories about how they followed the sins of the world, but then found Jesus Christ and how He made them whole again. Ron Luce the creater of Battle Cry, did his testimony, then did an alter call. Hundreds of people would stand up saying.'' I want the cross! I want the cross! Many people got saved those 3 nights. The angels in Heaven were rejoicing those nights, they were singing,'' Hallelujah! Going to San Francisco was an experience of the sinful nature of the world and man, but going to Battle Cry was the experience of a lifetime. Going made me realize that there are many people out there who need Jesus, they don't know what they were doing when they were trying to get rid of us. There is a battle going on in this world, and we need to fight! That is why Ron Luce called it: Battle Cry! If you want to know more about Battle Cry and the other locations go to:

This cross sits atop a hill, towering over the valley where I live.
My father built this cross and carried it up and set it into place.
This cross reminds my family and me everyday ''that by His stripes we are healed''.
We shall not fear sickness or disease, we shall stand with much faith in our hearts and say,'' We will not tolerate these evil works of the evil one, but stand firm in our faith and be healed in Jesus name.''
Through our lives living on this earth we will have faith and trust in Jesus' everlasting promises.
