The Presbyterian Church of Old Greenwich will offer a four-day conference Apr. 15-18 "to help Christians explore, discern and operate in the Holy Spirit's power."
Titled "In the Spirit's Power," the conference is the second part of a series that began last fall.
"This conference has been given in cities all over the world "¦ it's the kind of event for which people travel great distances. We feel honored and blessed to be able to offer it in this area," said Pastor Bill Gestal.
A refresher course is provided to bring those who did not attend the session last fall up to speed. "If I had to identify one thing in my adult life that turned me around (and continues to call me to conversion), it would be the outpouring of the Holy Spirit," said Angelo Natalie, who attended the first session.

COMMENT:
Listening To The Holy Spirit
Since Greenwich Roundup Became A Christian About Eight Months Ago, And He Has Been Trying To Dicern The Power Of The Holy Spirit At Harvest Time Church On King Street Greenwich.
Unfortunately, Greenwich Roundup Is A Horrible Student Of Following The Holy Spirit.
Often Times I Go To Harvest Time Church And I Listen Closely, But I Don't Really Listen.
For Years, Greenwich Roundup Thought If God already Knows What We Are Going To Ask.
Then Why Bother To Ask?
• “Why bother to pray to an all-knowing God?”
• “Why bother to pray to an all-loving God?”
• “Why bother to pray to an all-powerful God?”
Greenwich Roundup Used To Think That All Of This Prayer Is Huge Waste Of Time, But Since Going To Harvest Time Church Up On King Street He Have Seen That God Seems To Respond When People Ask For Help.
Greenwich Roundup First Started To Harvest Time Church With His Wife Who Had Recently Converted To Christianity From Buddhism.
At That Time We Were In A Situation Where We Had To Move.
My Wife Went To The Church And Prayed With The Church's Prayer Team For A New Home
Being A Non-Christian At The Time Greenwich Roundup Went And Got My Wife From This Prayer Group And Thanked Everyone For The Prayers And Left The Church.
Greenwich Roundup's Wife Had Been Crying While She Was Praying And This Had Disturbed Him Somewhat. So All Of A Sudden An Idea Came Into His Head On Where To Get A New Place That Will Make The Wife Stop Worrying.
Five Minutes After Leaving The Church Greenwich Roundup Was Negotiating For A New Place.
Well Greenwich Roundup's Wife And Her Friends At Harvest Time Could Not Shut Up About What a "Miracle" This Was.
Greenwich Roundup Tried To Tell Them That There Were These Things Called Coincidences In This World And hat My Brain Had The Idea About Where To Get A New Place.
Some Of The Members Of Harvest Time Church Called Greenwich Roundup A "Doubting Thomas."
Over And Over, There Were Stories About Prayers Being Answered At Harvest Time Church.
It Soon Became Clear To Greenwich Roundup That Persons At Harvest Time Church Did Not Understand Anything About Odds And Probability.
Well Greenwich Roundup Never Prayed At Home And Only Agreed With Prayers At Church, So His Wife Bugged Him To Join The Early Morning Men's Prayer Group So That He Could Learn To Pray.
Well Over And Over Greenwich Roundup Saw Prayers Answered
When Others In The Church Heard That Greenwich Roundup Was Regularly Going To This Early Morning Prayer Group They Began Asking Him To Mentioned Their Problems And To Say A Prayer For Them In The Group.
Many Of These Prayers Were Answered.
But Somehow Greenwich Roundup Felt That These Person's Who The Group Had Prayed For Just Experienced The Power Of Positive Thinking And Started Making Better Choices That Helped Them Reach The Outcome They Sought.
Then This Lady Started Coming To The Early Morning Men's Prayer Group Praying For A Little Pre-Mature Baby That Had Received One Operation And Now Needed To Have His Heart Operated On. Apparently The Poor Little Baby Was not Bigger Than The Size Of A Man's Fist And The Heart Was Only As Big As A Persons Thumb Nail.
The Baby Was In Very Bad Shape.
Well This Woman Who Did Not Even Go To Harvest Time Church Would Come Into The Men's Prayer Group And Take Over The Meeting And Get All Of The Men Worked Up And Praying For This Dying Baby.
This Woman Was Going To Multiple Churches In An Effort To Get Persons To Pray For This Baby That Was Not Even A Relative Of Hers.
Pretty Soon Greenwich Roundup Started Saying To Some Of The Men In The Prayer Group, We Have Got To Start Toning This Woman Down, Because There Is A Good Chance That This Baby Is Going To Die, And No One Is Thinking What Is Going To Happen To This Woman When Te Baby Doesn't Survive This Operation.
Well The Men In This Harvest Time Prayer Group Don't Like Thinking Three Or Four Steps Ahead And Insisted On Prying For The Baby With Out Any Concern For The Lady Who Was Praying So Hard.
Well The Day Of The Operation Came And We Did Not Hear Anything More About This Baby Or Lady.After A Week Or Two Greenwich Roundup Started Telling My Wife And The Men In The Prayer Group....
"I Hate To Say I Told You So, But I Told You So.....
The Poor Baby Probably Died And Now Who Knows What Happened To The Lady."
Well A Month Later, At Men's Prayer Greenwich Roundup Looked Out The Window And Saw The Lady's Car Coming Into The Church Parking Lot And He Start Thinking Of What He Could Say To Comfort Her Grief.
Well The Lady Comes Into The Men's Prayer Group And Reports That The Baby Survived The Operation And Has Since Thrived.
When Greenwich Roundup Asked Her Why In The Heck She Waited Over A Month To Report Back To The Prayer Group. She Said That She Had Been Helping The Mother And Father With The Baby.
This Is When Greenwich Roundup Began To Slightly Change His Mind About Prayer.
Soon After This Greenwich Roundup's Wife Began To Bug Him About Taking His Business Marketing Mail To This Men's Prayer Group And Asking Them To Pray Over It. Greenwich Roundup's Wife Was Getting Upset That He Had Been Sending Out Tons Of Mail And Not Getting Jobs.
In Greenwich Roundup's Business, You Need To Send Out One Or Two Thousand Pieces Of Mail In Order To Make The Phone Ring. Then You Can Go Out And Bid.
Every Month Greenwich Roundup Was Spending Hundreds Of Dollars On Postage To Send The Letters To Make The Phone Ring.
The Phone Would Ring. Greenwich Would Go Bid And Someone Always Had A Lower Winning Bid.
So To Shut Greenwich Roundup's Wife Up He Took A Hundred Pieces Of Mail To The Men's Prayer Group And Asked Them To Pray Over The Mail To Make His Wife Happy.
They Prayed, The Phone Rings, And Greenwich Roundup Gets The Job.
But The Account Is A Really Crappy Account That Gives Greenwich Roundup A Headache Every Month.
However, Times Are Tough And Greenwich Roundup Neesd The Cash. So He Put Up With This "Client From Hell"For Now.
Latter Greenwich Roundup Converted To Christianity And When He Did Pray That Day It Was Quite Profound And Emotional.
But Greenwich Roundup Still Was Not A Big Prayer Warrior.
A Few Months Later, At The Harvest Time Church There Was A Psychiatrist Who Had A Hearing Problem. He Went Up At A Healing Service And Said He Heard A Loud Pop In His Ear And Now Could Hear Out Of That Ear.
This Made Greenwich Roundup Take Notice, Because A Doctor Who Understands The Mind Was Saying That He Had Been Healed And That There Were No Tricks Of The Mind Involved.
Greenwich Roundup Started Going To The Men's Prayer Group With A Little More Belief In The Power Of Prayer, But Greenwich Roundup's Wife Still Was Not Satisfied. She Was Upset That He Only Prayed At Church And Not At Home.
Greenwich Roundup Told His Wife That If He Did Start Praying At Home, He Was Going To Pray That She Quits Bothering Him About How Much He Prays.
This Little Arguement Went On For About Five Months Until Greenwich Roundup's Wife Decided To Increase The Pressure A Bit.
She Went And Told Everyone In A Harvest Time Bible Class That We Take That Greenwich Roundup Never Prays At Home.
This Caused An Argument Later That Night After We Got Home From Church.
Greenwich Roundup Instructed His Wife That She Should Not Have Such A Big Mouth At Church.
Later She Started Complaining About All The Money That Greenwich Roundup Was Spending On Postage For Marketing My Business. Greenwich Ropundup Told Her To Quit Complaining About All The Postage, Because The Mailings Are Working.
Greenwich Roundup Reminded Her The Phone Rings Every Month.
Greenwich Roundup Had Five Bidding Opportunities In Recent Months, But Other Contractors Have Sharper Pencils Than Greenwich Roundup Had Right Now Right Now.
So The Wife Starts In With....
"Take The Mail Back Into The Harvest Time Men's Prayer Room And Let Them Pray Over It So That The Phone Will Ring And You Will Get The Job."
So, Greenwich Roundup Tells His Wife.....
"First Of All I Am Not Taking Any More Mail To The Harvest Time Men's Prayer Group, Because No One Else Is Bringing Marketing Materials Into The Group. Second Of All The Last Thing I Need Right Now Is Another Crappy Account From Hell."
So The Wife Says ......
"Lets Pray Over The Mail At Home"
Thank God, Greenwich Roundup Now Has Away To Get Out Of This Argument.
So We Prayed Over The Mail And Then A Few Days Later The Phone Rang Wanting A Bid For A Job That Is At Least Five Times Bigger Than The Biggest Job That Greenwich Roundup Had Ever Done.
Greenwich Roundup Told The Prospect That He Could Not Bid On This Job, Because It Was Way Too Big For His Company, But He Would Appreciate It If They Would Keep Him On Their Bid List For The Next Job That Would Be Appropriate For His Firm.
The Prospect Thanked Greenwich Roundup For His Honesty And Said He Would Keep Greenwich Roundup In His Mind For Future Work.
As Soon As Greenwich Roundup Hangs Up The Phone, The Wife Goes Off The Deep End.
She Says .....
"I Prayed So Hard Over Your Mail. The Phone Rings And God Gives Us A Job That Will Solve All Of Our Needs And You Tell Them No Thank You !!!!!!"
Greenwich Roundup Tried To Explain Things To His Wife By Saying .....
"You Don't Understand. I Will Have To Do That Job For A Month Before I Can Send Them There First Invoice, Then They Can Take Up To A Month To Pay That Invoice. I Just Don't Have The Money And Resources To Carry That Big Of A Job For Two Months."
Eventually, Greenwich Roundup And His Wife Agreed To Disagree And She Left Greenwich Roundup Alone For A While.
Today Greenwich Roundup Went To The Men's Prayer Group And Told Them Most Of This Story.
The Men All Said ....
"God Gave You That Job. Go See That Prospect And Tell Him You Were Wrong And That You Can Handle That Big Job And You Want To Bid On The Job"
Well Greenwich Roundup Is Not Going To Make This Propect Think That He Is Crazy, By One Day Saying The Job Is Too Big And Then The Next Day Saying God Wants Me To Bid On This Huge Job.
However, Greenwich Roundup Might Pray Over The Next Batch Of Mail At Home And Ask God To Help Me Find An Appropriate Job For My Company.
