Alicia did bring three women from Madison, Wisconsin who are attending the conference - but the part about friends from Dallas was just not true. Anyway, it is great to see them and we were surprised ... Well, that isn't exactly true either ... Debbie was surprised. I had been let in on the deal earlier in the day because Debbie's schedule was not going to put her in the right place at the right time for the surprise to happen. I was told about the event so that I could keep her occupied until Alicia could arrive. Still, it was a great surprise and we plan to enjoy our time with them for the next few days. Aren't we a fun group????

A Great Surprise!
This Mills family is all about surprises. You may remember that a couple of weeks ago I told you about the saga of Marisa trying to surprise Alicia on her birthday. Well, turn about is fair play seems to be the order of the day, because today at 2:45 pm, guess who showed up at the House of Prayer to surprise her mother and me...That's right, Alicia! Marisa had been working the deal for some time. There is a Women in the Prophetic Conference going on here at the International House of Prayer, and Marisa told us several weeks ago that she had friends coming to attend the conference from Dallas. Debbie busied herself preparing the guest room - not knowing she was preparing for Alicia and Aria. Actually, that isn't exactly true -

you lot sound fun. we have lots of surprise meetings lately... Tiffany and I have people anointing. literally. We can't go away, and not know someone. In Invercargill (way down south) we know about 5 people... we had been out in public for 5 minutes, and find one of those people at the mall. This week Tiffany and I met friends from north of Auckland, in Rotorua, at McCafe. In Auckland itself, we just know everyone anyway (all million of them) so obviously its not hard to find people... its awesome.
Tom...it's great to know how much you guys like surprises. I'm going to pull one on you soon and show up for breakfast. About 5am. I hope you're happy to see me....
