51st Wedding Anniversary
They say hindsight is 20/20 and it must be true because as I look back to the year 1968 the year I found myself in a very bad place on my knees talking to a God I wasn’t even sure existed at the time saying "if You are real I need You to give me a sign".
God’s Holy Spirit flooded over me and I’ve never been the same since. (Full testimony is available for free download. CLICK here).
That was the first miracle I knew it was from God but with that 20/20 hindsight I can now see how He had saved my life on a few occasions to bring me to this point in time.
For the next 6+ years, I began preaching mostly in Prisons and Churches witnessing the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) bringing thousands to the altar on their knees crying accepting Yeshua (Jesus) as their Messiah (Lord). But something was missing.
The Second Miracle
I was preaching in the Bethany Baptist Church in Baker Louisiana and I met the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen she even smiled at me but Angels do smile a lot I thought it was just for me and I introduced myself and found that she was single.
I was 34 she was only 26 and as soon as I could find enough courage to ask her to marry me and after a few moments of standing there like a nervous kid with the same angelic smile she said yes I will as if she was waiting on God to say yes or no. That was the beginning of the 51 years of being with the greatest person I’ve ever known.
We not only ministered together for the past 51 years but God has given us 4 beautiful children 2 boys and 2 girls, who have also given us 7 grandkids and 5 great-grandkids and counting. God called us to Israel to minister to our precious Jewish people in 1979 our youngest son Joel came with us and after over 20 years in the IDF Special Forces he and his beautiful wife Ola have given us two grandkids Eva and Jerry (named after me) it’s like spitting in Hitler’s face.
In God’s service we have witnessed so many miracles we can’t even count them. None of the above could have happened without Connie and the second miracle. No man could love anyone more than I love her for saying YES,

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem our son Joel and all the IDF soldiers and may God speak to you about supporting our work in Israel.
Shalom, Jerry Golden
