Confidently Trusting God

confidentlytrusting//Lillie and Charles Shuford

Lillie and Charles Shuford have attended Campmeeting for 20 of the past 21 years. “We plan for Campmeeting,” says Lillie. “In January when we do our calendar, we mark off the last full week of July.”


The Shufords became partners with Kenneth Hagin Ministries in 1986. They credit their strong, steady Christian growth over the years to their partnership and what they’ve learned. “This ministry has challenged our thinking and has moved us up to a higher level in our walk with the Lord,” Charles says.

“I think we were destined for our own spiritual growth to be a part of this ministry,” Lillie adds. “I have grown spiritually and have built a strong foundation.”

The solid foundation of healing truths the Shufords had built in their hearts enabled Lillie and Charles to come through a severe test. In 2004 a fibroid tumor in Lillie’s body erupted and poisoned her entire system. She became critically ill and was in the hospital for 15 days. The prognosis was grim, but the Lord completely healed her.

Her doctor said in over 30 years of practice, he knew of no other case where a patient survived this same condition. During Lillie’s time in the hospital, many people were praying for her. “I know it starts in me,” she says. “I had faith and never doubted. I knew that I was going to live and not die.”

Charles also believed that Lillie would be OK. “I had so much confidence,” he says, “that when they wheeled her out of her hospital room to be operated on, I prayed and lay down in her room and went to sleep!”

The Shufords are planning on attending Campmeeting 2011. They wouldn’t miss it. “Every year when we come, we always see old friends,” says Charles, “but we always meet somebody new. We always look forward to Campmeeting. It’s like an adventure, because we never know what is going to happen!”

We’re looking forward to seeing the Shufords at Campmeeting 2011. And like Charles, we’re also wondering how the Holy Ghost will move this year!
