Historian Wayne Warner wrote, "Even that early in her career, the building was jammed, with hundreds turned away. Some had begun to arrive at noon for the 7 P.M. service, and by 5:30 the people waiting in line were spilling out past the gaudy bars nearby. Regulars in the bars must have thought they had too much to drink when they saw the patient crowd standing in the July heat. Would a religious service draw this kind of crowd to Carnegie Hall?"

The local newspaper covered the crusade as a major event—which it truly was.

Miracles! Oh, the miracles! Goiters disappeared. Heart conditions were healed. Alcoholics were instantly delivered.

The services, and those that followed, were marked by a supernatural presence of the Holy Spirit. Kathryn said, "Many have been the times when I have felt like taking the shoes from my feet, knowing that the ground on which I stood was holy ground. Many are the times when the power of the Holy Ghost is so present in my own body that I have to struggle to remain on my feet. Many are the times when His Very Presence healed sick bodies before my eyes. My mind is so surrendered to the Spirit, that I know the exact body being healed: the sickness, the affliction, and in some instances, the very sin in their lives. And yet I could not pretend to tell you why or how."

She Didn't Understand

During these miracle meetings, scores of people Kathryn prayed for were "slain in the Spirit." They would crumple to the floor, touched by a power far greater than Miss Kuhlman. At other times people in the audience, far removed from the platform, would have the same experience.

When people questioned the biblical basis for this manifestation she would point to what happened to Saul on the road to Damascus in Acts 9.

He fell to the earth under God's power. Miss Kuhlman never professed to comprehend this phenomenon. She said, "I only know that I have. nothing to do with it. One of the questions I'm going to ask the Master when I get home to glory is about this manifestation of His power, the 'slaying power' of the Holy Spirit. I do not understand it."

His Knees Buckled

Kathryn particularly enjoyed telling the story of an incident that happened at her office in Pittsburgh—a story I think you'll enjoy as much as I did.

"I had just returned from lunch and was met by three men who were waiting for me," she recalled. "I recognized two of them as prominent Presbyterian ministers in the city. They introduced the third man as a professor of theology from a well-known theological seminary in the East."

One of the ministers commented, "My friend said he had heard of you and your miracle services. He wanted to stop by and meet you before leaving town."

Kathryn welcomed him and showed the man through the offices. "We went back into our recording studio where we make the tapes of our radio programs, and then I gave him copies of some of our literature.
