I was at the Women's Retreat in Sturbridge and got to hear you tell MY story Thursday evening! Two minor differences: I didn't have a grandmother (great or other) to love and teach me and I didn't get a check from the IRS! I got the letter saying I owed $3000+! Sure would have preferred receiving your letter! All other elements of MY story were correct. I still have no income (22 months today since I lost my "high income to nothing" reversal!) and am trusting the good Lord to open up the windows of Heaven to get me through this season! What a blessing to hear you share MY story! 12 November 2011

As I look through your website I have such wonderful memories of seeing you at Women of Faith in St. Louis, MO. My mother was alive then and we came each year. She had beautiful silver hair like yours and one year we sat in the front row as you spoke. Mom was elated and then we met you later that afternoon and you told Mom you had noticed her in the front row. That made her day! Thank you Sis. Wells for that. My Mom and I were so close, but I know she is surrounded by God's Glory and I will "see her later". God Bless You. 22 October 2011

Thank you Thelma for bringing my faith back. As a child I had horrible memories because of being told daily that I was not wanted and not loved. My mother loved her alcohol much more than me. Life was not fun. At the age of 17 I became a christian and finally felt a love like no other. At the age of 21 I had to have a hysterectomy. While in the hospital I had a visit from our pastor which proceeded to tell me that I must have really sinned to have been that sick. That really frightened me and made me afraid of the loving forgiving Lord that I knew. While at a conference that you spoke at I heard a message from you that changed my life. I had hoped to meet and tell you this on a meet and greet that you had but the line was too long and I was turned away. Then years back you were no longer there and I was told that you had passed away. I was truly crushed as I was never able to thank you or to get that hug that you talk about so much. I was crushed. Then today lo and behold I found this website and was so excited to find that you are very much alive. I truly hope to some day meet you. I still have been dealing with illness issues and have sent a prayer request to your site also. I just know now that the Lord is with me and not against me. Thank you for your love and your messages. I love you Thelma Wells. 26 September 2011

Thank you for your visit to First Assembly of Jefferson City, Mo today. Wow. What a wonderful time. Such an inspiration. Such a joyful soul. You are a truly amazing person with an amazing testimony and, yes, an amazing ability to grab a person's heart and lead it back to where it should dwell. My 16 year old son enjoyed the service more than any other service he can remember. Thank you for that. I pray you continue to do God's work and touching souls and minds as He leads you. I wish I could follow you on your travels as you are truly a Gift from the Lord. I am already awaiting your next apperance in the great state of Missourah! 11 September 2011

I watched your program for the first time today. I wanted to thank you for your encouragement. I felt as if you were talking directly to me, so thank you for allowing God to do a work in you and sharing your story with me. 23 May 2011

I just happened to turn to a station toady where Thelma was speaking on Winning. I was so discouraged and really not wanting to do anything and God used her today to wake up my spirit. When she quoted John 10:10.I knew God had me tune in and He wanted me to know He sees me! I choose today to be a winner even when my finances and my job search has left me down.I am not out because He's come! Thank you for your ministry and your encouragement today. Ephesians 3:20-21 is still true.I needed to remember this today. God Bless! 13 July 2010

Thelma - I don't know if you know how many people around the world think of you as a girlfriend, maybe we shouldn't but we do! You are an inspiration! Just wanted you to know that you are loved, like you needed my 2 cents worth. Thanks for all you do and all you have added to my life, if from afar. May God continue to bless you 13 July 2010

She was fabulous. In my mind the perfect christian women's speaker is one who is witty while giving life changing truths from the word of God. Thelma is so ggifted in both of these areas. She is a gem! One in a million! 13 July 2010

Thelma, Tonight was wonderful. Thanks for giving your heart and soul to God's work. I am the red head who brought my friend over to meet you at your table tonight. I have invited her to different church events thru the past 4 years that I have known her and tonight, she finally said YES. I just wanted you to know some of the background stories of your audience and your impact on our lives. My friend, Dawn went online to your website and checked you out before telling me yes, so I guess you checked out OKAY. ha. As we drove home, we were able to talk about the way your words spoke to our lives and the place we are in our lives right now. She is 40+ & her husband 50 and they have just adopted a baby boy. My kids grew up with Anne's so I am in another place in life, searching for my purpose. Having Moses to raise was not a chance and we talked about Dawn's son Eli, and how he being in her life is not a chance adoption. Your Moses story led us into some great conversations. This morning, I took my dog for a walk in the woods behind our town library. As I walked, I wished I had carried my Bible. I had just talked with my husband that evening about how I wished I read my Bible more. I am Anne's most severe A.D.H.D. friend, so I don't ever sit down long enough to read anything. My husband told me how he always keeps his Bible in his truck & when he goes out in the morning for his coffee & time away from me (I am a morning person/He is not), that is when he sits and reads his Bible. As I am walking Charley, my dog, I am really wishing for my Bible. Then I look down and at my feet is a Bible! Wow, now I had been having a conversation with God about this & now all of the sudden, here is a Bible. No way, yes it's true. So, I grab my cell phone camera and start to make pictures of this, cause it was so unbelievable. After a couple of artsy shots, in case I want to create a painting from the photos, I pick up the old Bible to see what God has in store for me. Now we are at the point of remodeling our home to put it on the market, so we can move forward with our lives.anywhere God wants us to be. First thing some people say is : Maybe God wants you in Haiti, but I think, that does not sound like me, but what ever.I will do it. Then I feel bad for not thinking Haiti is a great idea. So, you can imagine how relieved I was when you said how God is not interested in making us do something that he did not design us for. Now I don't have to feel guilty about the Haiti thing. God has blessed me with an rich art talent and a passion for using that talent for his kingdom, so I enjoyed your message tonight about learning to realize what God has already started in our lives. Now, back to the Bible.I look down & I can see it is the book of Exodus, which I am thinking, WoW that is kinda where we are right now in our lives, ready to move on to the place God has planned for us. But as I pick it up, I realize the Bible is written in Spanish! I decided to leave it for the next hiker to stumble across, maybe they will speak the language. But I did tear out the page it was open to as a reference. I will read it tonight (from my Bible) and see what God has to say to me. During all this, my dog wandered back to the car with out me and now I can't find him. I search for 20 or 30 minutes, but he is now where to be found. Then my cell phone/camera rings and it is the city pound & they have my puppy in jail. For 15 bucks, I can get him out. Someone walking out by the cars had seen him and "rescued" him. As I am driving to the dog pound, I start getting kinda ticked off, because someone has taken/stolen my dog from me and now I have to go pay to get him back! What a crazy day. At least it all ended in a great evening with you and my friends in God's house. Now I am headed to bed to read my page from Exodus, but out of my English Bible. Thanks to you and Anne Hailey for letting God speak thru you! Janie Cavender 24 January 2010
