Dr. Green, Mandy, and Pastors Greg and Celeste Texada prayed for those who requested it, and this resulted in many answered prayers. Mandy concluded the conference by encouraging everyone to pursue their victory that Christ paid for on the cross no matter what challenges they are faced with; because according to I Corinthians 15:57, there is always victory available for the believer. “Always Victory!”
