My mother has all but disowned me. I was raised a Jehovah's Witness,
which she still practices. The first time my mother saw me after I
received the Holy Ghost was "you look Pentecostal". I said thank you, I
am. She won't even sit down to eat with me now. She speaks to me but
just barely.

I thank God I have a new family in Christ.
Prayerfully yours,
Sister Kayla
