I am a member of World Changers Ministries in College, Park, Ga., and was moved by minister John Hatcher's support of my pastor Creflo Dollar. I recently read in your Jan. 5 issue on page 6A an interesting column, “Hatcher column on Dollar gets dunce's award.“

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but the fact that the letter tried to say my pastor as quoted in the paper “coincidentally” timed his giving with the alleged traffic offenses. I feel that before you can judge what Pastor Dollar did, you have to experience the anointing for yourself. I am a 16-year-old student at Fayette County High School and have felt the experience of prosperity in my life. An example was just this past Friday.

In the Bible, it says in Luke 6:38, “Give and it shall be given unto you; Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, shall men give unto your bosom. For with the same measure that you meet, it shall be measured to you again.”

I was at school and a friend needed lunch money. I gave her the lunch money, knowing what I give shall be given back to me. When I went to work, I found a little money on the floor and then I found an extra dollar. It was the lunch money I had given the young lady at my school.

This is what my pastor teaches, among other things. He doesn't just preach on prosperity, but the anointing is strong when he teaches the anointing to prosper.

I applaud Minister Hatcher for taking a stand and standing with Pastor Dollar. I say he deserves an award of respect from my family and me for understanding the reason Pastor Dollar gave the money to the police officers. Just look at Luke 6:38 and you will see why.

I just had to voice my opinion on the letter of minister Hatcher. He has the respect of me, my family and our church. I want to invite anyone willing to come and see World Changers Ministry for yourself. It is off Old National Highway on Burdett Road. I would also like to thank The Citizen for giving me the chance to voice my feelings on this subject.
