Jack Prince was the founding chairman and Pat Prince the secretary, Jim Adkins and Mary Webster were the first speakers, and a gift of $200 from the North Florida CFO Council Ring helped pay the way.

There Is Such a Place As Tekoa
Evelyn Carter Spencer tells how she once lay on the floor crying out to God, until she heard him say to get up, because everything she was begging for was already hers in Jesus. She closes with the group singing "Jesus, reduce me to love," and calls campers at the Georgia Mountains CFO in 1978 to lay down their own idea of what love should look like.
Evelyn Carter Spencer preaches on breaking free from being bound to the past, retelling Paul's cry in Philippians 3 to "know him." She points to her own testimony about a mink coat, which she calls proof that "my daddy gave it to me." The message closes out a service at the 1978 Georgia Mountains CFO.
Evelyn Carter Spencer describes years of walls in her personal life as "deep furrows" down the highway of her walk with God.

The Eagle Shakes Her Babies Loose

She also retells Luke 5's frustrated fishermen, who finally caught fish only after a stranger told them, "why don't you move?"
