Brock and Auny Gill and Shannon

OH MY GOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!! I FINALLY MEET THIS PEOPLE!!! CAN YOU IMAGINE!! I HAVE 1 YEAR AND ALMOST 3 MONTHS THAT I WANT TO MEET THEM. AND NOW WAS THE TIME!!!

I meet Brock as you know on the Miracles of Jesus Discovery Chanel documentary. I like a lot what he was doing and i search him on the internet and i found his blog. And i start commenting since then. Every time i have a computer (that is very often) the first i do is comment on brock's blog. Then anything else.
Then i meet auny, her wife (lovely girl). Then i meet Scott, and later i meet Shannon. Scott and Shannon have to deal with my e mails because some times i'm very annoying sending e mails of a lot of questions hahahaha sorry guys! i love you tooooo!
Well, I am on vacations and i'm in Dallas with an uncle's house since 1 week ago. I know that Brock was going to come to Houston, but i didn't know if my uncle will let me go to see him. So i ask my aunt. and she get soo excited about going to meet them.... And i was like... WHAT! i mean.... i was going to go, alone, to a huge place, just with an address and a phone number. HO MY GOD! THAT WAS CRAZY!. I was very very very very very excited but.. i mean..... the situation was SCARY!! i don't do pee just because i can still hold it very well. hahahaha i'm joking! but it was very hard. it was a very scary experience. but it worth it. it worth every dollar and every risk. IT REALLY WORTH IT.
TRIP. First i take a bus at 11:15 on grayhound station. i don't remember at what time i arrived on Houston but possibly like at 4. I go out.... and i was... Now what!?? how am i going to get there.... First i though on take the metro, but in my way a sir say me: "do you need a cab?" it was like a man sended for God... but i doub it a little, because i didn't know how far it was be. and i was thinking in go first in mertro a litte closer and then take a cab... but i don't even know where i was going!! so ... i think fast and i say.. "yes". So, i take the cab and i give the man the adress. he say: "yea yea i know where it is" and i feel realive!! believe me!! i think, i don't care if it cost me a lot of money, but i'm going to go there safe. without lose me or whatever. So, when i was on the cab, i calm a little. just was missing my reception...
When i was on the cab, the man was asking me what i was going to do in the church... and i told him, oH! i'm going to meet a friend, he is a christian minister illusionist. and he was like WHAAAT!!! that's not right... the magic is evil, he can't match both things. that's wrong... no no no, he can't do that. And i try to explain why he was doing it, but he was very persistent on his idea that i just let him talk, and i was: yes, yes yes... yes. yes.. yes. hahahahaha was funny. well, and then i finally was there, at the metropolitan baptist church. is that the name??? ok well, you know wich one. I enter from one side of the church and i saw the immense construction. My God! that church is HUGE!. i was walking all around the church and almost get lost. hahaha kidding. But no one was there... then i saw a miss. i ask her for Brock's show and she told me that i have to cross the street and go to the new salon they have there. So i was walking very nervous to the place... and the first person i saw was Auny. I open the door and i couldn't be more happy to see her. Finally i was with them. I hug her and then i hug shannon and then auny told me to go with her inside the salon. i follow her and then she scream: BROCK! and i give a Big Breath!! I saw him sitting at the end of the stage doing something, with his head down. Auny was telling him to come because she has someone he want to meet. and brock was like... now?? i'm doing something, and auny insist, she is right now with me come and see her. Then he stand up and come... then auny say: is barbara! we hug and the first thing i told him was: you are tall! hahahaah because he really is. and he told me: you made it! and i say YES! I MADE IT! i was shaking. we take pictures and then we start talking. we talk and talk and talk. it was very very fun. i spend a great night with everyone. The show was awesome! i love it. i love the tricks and i love everything. Between the shows i was talking with auny. Then she ask me a question: Do you have a bible?? i seat. And she say: Do you have an English bible?? and i say no... So she bring me HER BIBLE!! AND SHE GIVE IT TO ME!... TO MEEEEE!! I WAS VERY SURPRISE! I SAY... ARE YOU SURE?? SHE SAY YES! TAKE IT! and she show me this beautiful card that is glued to the first page that say: "be still, and know that i am God". HO MY GOD I FEEL SO FLATTERED. thank you so much auny, i promise i'll do a good use of it. :)
After everything we go dinner to a italian restaurant. we eat a delicious dessert and then we go to sleep. The next day we rise early and went to the church again. Brock make 2 shows there. I like what he say, maybe that's why i follow him, because we have the same thoughts about the church and how to live with Jesus. It was awesome his speech. Then we went for a burrito hahahaha for lunch, "the best burrito of the world".... for WHO? hahahahaha the burrito was ok. the impressive of this place is that maybe they have the biggest burrito in the whole resautants of the world. We continue talking and talking util the time finish. brock have to take an airplane to florida to continue saving people and i have to come back to dallas.
Is the most CRAZY, WONDERFUL, MARVELOUS, FABULOUS, FANTASTIC, BEAUTIFUL, UNBELIEVABLE, GREAT EXPERIENCE IN MY ENTIRE LIFE.

Hey Barbara,

I read Brock's Blog everyday for the last year, also. Last summer 2006 I met Brock and Auny at SuperWow in Georgia. Georgia is where I live. They are the two coolest people I've ever met. I really admire you for having the courage to make the trip to meet them.

Have a great day,
Teresa (in Georgia)
