We hear of the conversion of water into wine at the marriage in Cana, as of a miracle. But this conversion is, through the goodness of God, made every day before our eyes. Behold the rain which descends from heaven upon our vineyards, and which incorporates itself with the grapes to be changed into WINE; a constant proof that God loves us, and loves to see us happy!

Christians BANNED! Western Australian community takes radical step to stop God botherers from trying to convert them to Christianity
Aboriginal elders in a remote Western Australian community want to ban Christians from visiting their region.
The indigenous community said the religious organisation was attempting to convert them to Christianity and away from their traditional culture.
The group of elders asked WA's discrimination watchdog if they were allowed to forbid the Christian group - who wasn't identified - from their community.
Equal Opportunity Commissioner of WA John Byrne said the religious group most likely wouldn't be able to lodge a complaint if they were to be banished.

Oklahoma Pastor Busted Running White Supremacist Prostitution Ring
“Aryan Pride” for Jesus: An Oklahoma pastor is under arrest after being caught running a prostitution ring with a white supremacist.
Pastor Walter Eugene Brazington Jr. is “being charged with procuring for prostitution and possession of a firearm while in the commission of a felony,” according to a report from Tulsa World.

Acting on a tip of unusual activity at a strip mall in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, police began monitoring a business that only had a neon “open” sign in the window and an unusual amount of activity noted by neighboring businesses.
The investigation started in September when investigators identified classified ads with women offering massages. A phone number connected to the ads was linked to All Nations Evangelistic Team.
