Hi Andrew,

Many of us on this list know exactly what you are talking about.  I am 57
years old now, and been a born again Christian since age five.  I lost my
sight at 12 years of age and my wife is also blind.  We have experienced
these types of things in church many many times.  How old are you, Andrew?

Phil.
