Chapter 23 - Page 333 - Field Of Flowers

   A picture of the dining hall flashed on the screen behind the reporter. "The dining facilities are located across the street from the hospital. They feed hundreds of people every day." She pointed to the area behind the dining hall. "The residents of Angel Town have a beautiful park and recreational area with a swimming pool and flower garden."

   The reporter pointed to an area across the street from where she stood. "Angel Town has over three hundred houses with paved roads and sidewalks." A picture of the residential area popped up in front of the reporter to fill the screen. "At night, the bright glow from a generous supply of streetlights illuminates the small community. Houses, food, and hospital facilities are eagerly furnished to anyone who needs them."

   The reporter pointed toward the Angel Town church. "Every Sunday, residents from Angel Town and surrounding communities worship at this small church." The camera continued to roll but momentarily went blank. When the news report continued, the reporter was standing in front of the church. "Most people around the world believe in God, but in Angel Town, residents believe God performs miracles for them. Are these miracles real?" The reporter paused. "By the time I finish this report," she said, "I hope to show the world that God does in fact do miracles in Angel Town."

   The television screen went blank. After a short pause, images began to appear again. This time the camera was placed at the back of the church. The reporter was facing the camera. The backs of members of the congregation could be seen behind her.

   "Every Sunday," the reporter announced, "Angel Town residents meet in this simply-constructed, nondenominational building to worship God. Today, our television crew will sit in on one of these meetings."

   She started to speak again but suddenly stopped. "What's that sound?" she asked. She looked around, then looked back at her cameraman. "Where is that humming sound coming from?"

   He was just as confused as she was. "I don't know."
