White explained. That hasn't been the only journey White has experienced. From traveling
all across the United States to ministering in the nations of Africa, White has graced count-

"On the Wings of the Wind," same title of her new book. White said the title of her book is
inspired by her experience riding on the wings of an angel. She explained, iin a moment of time, we elevated to an even high-
er altitude. Although, the wirtgs of the angel shielded me from the force of the wind, I heldon for dear life." "I knew I could-
n't let go. I had an overwhelming feeling of being covered and protected. I was in a heavenly place, all while thinking, "I am
