The Toronto blessing
- Airport vineyard church of 400 people
- Jan 1994, the members were worshipping together when they all experienced a religious experience at the same time and they have continued since
- They experience ‘holy laughter’ which is believed to be a sign of the holy spirit; would this not be easy to be swept up into? Mass hysteria?
