Pentecost In Denver

Hello everyone.  Praise the Lord!

This was a testimony of Thomas Hezmalhalch, and sent to William Seymour, in Los Angeles, California, at the Azusa Street Mission. He published this in his newsletter and November of 1906.


What I received on that memorial Sunday night in Los Angeles has never left me for one moment and last night in particular at the meeting, did the Holy Ghost magnify the simple Gospel of our Lord and demonstration and power, until about twenty-five crowded the altar and got definite experiences of justification, sanctification, baptism with the Holy Ghost, in healing. 

One dear old man, who because of his back, could not straighten up nor stoop down without severe pain, was instantly healed, got up and showed the people how the dear Lord had healed him. He stood as straight as a young man, stooped down, And touch the floor with his hands without a bit of pain. Then he knelt down and said, "I want the baptism with the Holy Ghost," And Glory to God, he got it, and there was great joy.


Dear Brother Seymour, God surely sent me here. These dear, hungry people, when they learned I came from the meeting at Los Angeles, received me with open arms. They gave me the evening, And during the meeting, They embraced me in our joy in the Lord knew no bounds. One dear brother from Los Angeles picked me up and held me as if I were a child. This is but the beginning of a work here such as we knew in Los Angeles. This people have been praying that God would send someone to teach them and give them light and wisdom,  And they believe God has answered their prayers, hence their great joy. I feel the need of your prayers. I never saw in all my travels a people so hungry for the truth.


Dear brother G. F. Fink, The brother in charge, was coming to Los Angeles to Azusa Street to learn and get a better understanding of the baptism with the Holy Ghost. While I was talking to the people last night, He arose and embraced me crying, I love you, I love you, my brother. Surely God has sent you to us; And the people wept for joy, and shouted praises unto God. These people here were sent on fire by the Holy Ghost through Brother Johnson and the two sisters who passed through here, And it is marvelous how the Holy Ghost has led them.  You little know how the people have been praying for you and the meetings in Los Angeles in the midst of their own struggles. Give my love in Jesus to all the saints.

Signed, Thomas Hezmalhalch
