We loaded up a couple cars with blankets, clothes, and food. We had 80 hot dogs and well over 60 water bottles. We stopped first by the grocery store on Bolt and visited Mary. We met a couple men who needed Bibles. I'm thankful for Lane and John being so ready to share the gospel. Sarah and I went to visit Mary who seemed to be behind on her water bill. She owed more than $400 dollars and CPS was called on her. Her house was filled with children.
The pictures here show a little of what we did. We prayed for her family and asked God to intercede on her behalf. I'm also posting a picture of her bill to see if anyone wants to help. Our ministry unfortunately does not provide money to help those on the streets, but we have helped families. Hopefully, they'll get help one way or another. We are glad to have the opportunity to pass some tracks and share the gospel.
Our second stop took us to Sam Salon and there we passed out food and did soem street evangelism. I had the opportunity to pray for Juan and his wife. He's still going through alot since he's been evicted and his car stolen (supposedly). We hope to gather some blankets on a future visit and help them out. Sarah was able to help a lady there and it was good to know that several women came out so we could at least give them some blankets.
Enoy the above photos from our second stop.
Our third stop took us to the Shamrock gas station area. Immediately we saw Betty on a wheel chair. There weren't many that were there, but we met a short little man who recently had heart bypass surgery. He didn't feel well, but we had the opportunity to share God's word as well as pray for this man. I also had the opportunity to pray and cry with Betty a little bit. She's been hurt alot and has not had a desire to go to the church for help. She felt no one would accept her. Her life has been tough and there are days she said, that she just wanted to go home (to heaven). Here are some photos:
