My first time I ran into someone speaking in Tounges I was working as a Janitor for the church I was attending. It freaked me out. 

I thought the guy was having a seizure.

I started attending a different church, and they made it sound like I didn't have the holy spirit and I needed to have someone "lay hands" on me. 

I was told growing up you do not have someone speak in tounges unless there was someone to interpret, so I wasn't sure to believe. 

On the other hand, if I didn't have the holy spirit, I wanted it. So I decided to have someone lay their hands on me...
