We just completed our first Breakthru Conference here in Gainesville, GA.  We're always trying new things at AIM and sometimes they bomb.  Not knowing what to expect, we were thrilled at the feedback from the participants.  It was a huge success and we're already making plans for the next one in the spring (you can find out more about it here). So, here are a few of the comments from participants:

I feel like an onion that has shed its layers.  I have understood and have found what it is and feels like to have intimacy with Christ.
--Francesco

Yes!  I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off of me.  I came in full of fear, guilt, doubt, and shame and I feel like I have finally laid it at the feet of Jesus.
--Hayley

This entire weekend was out-of-the-box thinking for me and members of my family, but not in a threatening way.  I felt very safe.
--Larry

Prayer Partners were wonderful.  They didn't try to "fix" anything or tell you what to do.  They walked you into the truth of God's love, healing, and forgiveness.
--Crystal

Prayer Partners were awesome.  They did not just pray for me, they led me in prayer.  I was amazed at the discernment and sensitivity.
--Steve

Very.  They represented love.  For the first time I was with a group of mentors who brought us to a place of hearing from the Lord without feeling judgment and forced direction from them.
--Tami

Through the teaching and prayer mentors, God showed me where the issues of my past had frozen me emotionally.  He taught me where I stand positionally with Him, that I am a beloved child and He loves me and wants my company.
--Brenna
