This is the testimony of Sylvia Perkins:


:''It was summer 1961, and my mother, Agnes Shippy, struggled to keep up with her household chores and gardening. She had contracted polio as a very young child, wore braces through high school and still had one foot and leg deformed and shorter than the other. Prayer for healing was her constant companion, and when she heard about a "faith healer" based in Southern Indiana, she tearfully intreated my Dad to take her to be prayed for. We got a pickup camper and traveled the country, eagerly awaiting the time when she could get to "Brother Branham", be prayed for and receive her healing. She just knew that when she was healed all her large family would believe and follow this wonderful self-proclaimed prophet she had found.
