July 3, 2010: Asian Invasion!

Dennis loaded up about 10 of his kids (New Life Gospel Church) along with my family. We went ahead with tons of hot dogs and water to our destination. Our first stop near Texas Car Wash was pretty good. The only problem was that there were very few people there. We dropped off some food and met the guys who were living there. We developed relationships with the guys there and had to head on to the Shamrock gas station to reach another group. When we got there at approximately 11:45 we started to see a huge crew of day laborers. There was at least 30 people there for us to feed. The numbers multiplied rapidly, while our resources dropped drastically. The kids got to meet the group and ministered to them as they walked on by. They did a good job at interacting with the group of day laborers. Once that was finished I had the feeling we should head back to the Texas Car Wash and drop off whatever we had left. There we met Joey and another guy there we could help. We gave them food. Then a car pulled in looking for JOey's friend. It was there, where we all laid hands and prayed for that one gentleman. My heart broke for him as he left. He felt as if, everything that happened was real. Indeed he was drunk, but even while being drunk he experienced a little taste of heaven.
