Troubled Waters Bayou

In 1950's Louisiana, a Priest, a Rabbi, and a Choctaw Indian share a miracle that affects several tween-age, Jitterbug enthusiasts. Even the Vatican sends a proxy, to investigate the rumors of Angels having visited, Troubled Waters Bayou. Henri Thibadeaux, our 19 yr. old protagonist, accompanies his two childhood friends to a Catholic, Cajun, outdoor, fish, fry dance. Henri, although maimed by the Albino alligator, Rougerou, as a child, struggles with his first-time on the dance floor with Ms. Rebekah Molieneire. Henri is smitten and acquiesces to a stipulation to dating Rebekah. It's given by Gabriel her uncle and the exchange is that he must attend her church. Her Uncle Gabriel is also Father Gabriel, and one of the three men that experienced the first Angelic visitation. Henri is mesmerized at the enchanting, supernatural, Holy Spirit Church. He finds faith, love and redemption as he makes the decision to follow God's plan for his life's destiny. Rabbi Abraham is another that has experienced God's divine intervention. He also was at the first visitation. He holds the Monday Night Bible study on the, Book of Genesis. A popular character with the young folks of the church and community, he is well liked for his thorough and wise teachings. He is Creole and Jewish. Through his studies he has become a Messianic Rabbi, teaching on faith in Messiah, Yeshua. He along with Enoch and Father Gabriel have built the Holy Spirit Sanctuary after their encounter with the Angel's of God. Enoch is the third of the holy trio that was in the waters during the visitations. Now he truly knows the Creator his Choctaw mother and father told him about as a Mississippi American Indian youth. He is the quiet, glue that holds the overall plan together in the community. He will explain the horrific atrocities to the Cherokee and Choctaw nations with the Indian Removal Act of the 1800's by our United States. He believes that even with great atrocities, God will also make a way to bear it. His explanation of the Cherokee, Trail of Tears help young people of that area remember this tragic event. He also has come to faith in the experience of Visitations that have been going on for over a hundred years in the Indian Territories. The Vatican has also heard of these Indian land visitations and has decided to finally send aInvestigative representative, Mr. Gambino. He is a wise but older 75 yr. old, educated man. At a Jitterbug Contest that draws, hotshot dancers as far away as New Orleans and Baton Rouge, Henri and Rebekah face a challenge to their love and future together. What does God have planned for them, their friends and foes in the little town of, Troubled Waters Bayou?It is Father Gabriel, Rabbi Abraham and Choctaw Enoch's prayer that they will be effective with the message that they have been given to share. There are also afoot, powerful forces opposing the tremendous Angelic miracles occurring. Now, those forces are getting stronger. Will the faithful in the swamp lands of Louisiana be up for the battle?Why Now? Why Here?Will these upcoming heavenly confrontations, guide the eternal destinies of this chosen, south Louisiana battlefield?Does God care about us?I believe he is a Good Father that wants to give good gifts to you, his child. I pray you will find hope in your dreams, joy for your sorrows, and courage for faith to believe that anything is possible!Henri Thibadeaux's favorite scripture comes from the book of Hebrews, Chapter 13 verse 2 which states, Do not forget to show kindness to strangers, for by this, some who, while they were unaware, have entertained Angels. Many of the people of Troubled Waters Bayou believe that God has a plan and destiny for their lives. Do you?Do you know you are fearfully and wonderfully made?God will always Love you and me in spite of our short comings. Blessings, Kevi
