Los Angeles 2020. Parts 1 and 2

Part one. Prophetic coincidences

The first part of our trip to America ended successfully. Our weekend was planned to be spent here in this unique city.

This time, coincidences were almost prophetic.

On every corner, there was either L.A. Bank, or L.A. Pizza,

or some kind of publishing house or news under the same brand.

I looked at all of this and suddenly realized that these were my initials. Surname and name.

And as soon as pastor Arsen-jan met us, there was also a coincidence.

And all this is happening in this city. Well, probably this is no coincidence.

Ledyaev Alexei - Little Armenia - Los Angeles. L.A., three in one. Probably, this is something at something notable this trip.

Sergey tried to do everything so that our stay here would be remembered for a long time.

He reserved rooms for us in this brand new hotel on discounts which he closely monitored.

The hotel is only three years old. I have never seen such a thing.

The hotel reception is on the seventieth floor.

First, wait a second, how do you like such a height, huh?

The whole city is at our feet.

And secondly, I still do not understand how they managed to drag the entire structure of the usual hotel ground floors to such a height.

When you come here from the street, you will not immediately understand what kind of bureau this is.

To do this, you need to rise to a completely different height of understanding. And the prophetic coincidences did not leave us here either.

Of course, we will climb to heights, and further according to what is written.

In short, here is such a modest refuge Sergey gave us right in the center of Los Angeles.

Thank you so much, bro. May the Lord also royally reward

and multiply your blessings a thousand fold.

Part two. Dream center

This is not Orlando. Everything is different here. The architectures are amazing.

Weather, what is the weather like here.

It's just that summer is in full swing. Plus twenty five degrees.

Such  contrasts. Remembering that in a couple of days you have to return to Latvia,

While trying to absorb and recruit what is abundant here.

As we agreed, firstly, an excursion to the Dream Center awaited us.

Thank you so much, Luke Barnett, for getting everything ready for us here,

they were looking forward to us.

Last time I was here a few years ago. But, just as it was then, so it is now, everything here works like a clock.

About six hundred rehabilitants constantly. Including even foreigners.

Cozy hostel. Order and cleanliness.

The first three months without phones and contacts with the outside world.

I asked if there were conflicts between them, quarrels or fights.

After all, it’s clear the circles they came from.

Our guide explained that the rules are strict. After the first incident, violators are evicted immediately.

They are instructed about this in detail from the very first days.

Tough daily routine.

Work, scripture study. Surveys, meeting with specialists.

Various sports fields,

for every taste and color.

Besides everything

There is a whole floor for veterans of various wars.

They can live here with their families.

After Iraq,

Syria or Afghanistan

rehabilitation is simply necessary.

And in this room, there are regular services.

Where they listen to the Word of God and prayers are made.

In short, an entire empire, the uniqueness of which also lies in the fact

that all this work is funded by the state.

Here is a unique legacy for the current generation from the patriarch and main founder of Dream Center - Tommy Barnett. Continuity and generational links in a literal and practical sense.
