Testimony by Keith Evens

Monday: February 25, 2019: My name is Keith Evans, the pastor of Antioch Baptist Church in Rayville. I was at a funeral today for Bob Pochea my wife Lesa’s father. It was held at St. Pascal’s Catholic church on North Seventh and West Monroe. As the priest finished his message, he was told that a couple of the grandchildren wanted to speak; which he allowed. Two grandsons got up and shared about Bob their grandfather. Afterward Robert, Lesa’s brother got up and spoke and then sat down. The next thing that happened Robert slumped over in his seat. Keith and his wife were down front; Robert was in front of them and he had died. Keith got up and went around to where he was slumped over laid hands on him praying that the Lord would have mercy on him; save his life. A nurse came and began giving Robert CPR. He did not have a pulse nor was he breathing. Keith got up off of his knees; with about 300 people present and asked them to start praying; that God would have mercy on him and spare his life. His pulse came back and began to breathe. The Lord spared his life; they transported him to St. Francis where they implanted stents. The Dr. told the family that only one out of 100 persons that had experienced this survived. The priest came up to Keith afterward and said my name Father Pat, my Baptist friends call me brother Pat. He said; you did right by getting up and having everybody to pray, and I appreciate that.
Tuesday, February 26, 2019 two doctors visited with Robert Poche-a and said you should be a dead man. Give Glory to God!
