They went forth Two by Two...

This past Saturday the regular 'crew' of evangelist were not able to meet at the Fountain at the regular time of 10:30am. Paul had to work days and would not be there on the site until 3:45pm and I had to go to work at 3:00pm. I almost did not go down,...it would have been so easy not to...but thanks to Barry Gorter I was able to have a partner to hand out tracts at the fountain.

It was 'Vanity Fair' in the extreme this past Saturday. There was the regular guy banging on plastic pales, but the young man driving nails into his head was more than I wanted to look at! In the midst of all this we stood our ground and handed out the gospel until the seed bag was empty...

PROVIDENTIAL MEETING
We took the MAX and sitting across the aisle was a young boy about 13..."Do you have one of these?" as I handed him a picture tract..."This was your life..." He began to read it...I then ask him if he had ever read the Bible. He said, "No" I handed him a Gospel of John and he took it. "If the Bible were a great portrait with Jesus as the main object, that little book in your hand is a picture of Jesus' face...read it and you will know Him. "Who are you anyway?" the boy asked. "I'm a preacher...", I replied. He seemed satisfied with the explanation and went his way, PRAY FOR THE WORD OF GOD TO HAVE IT'S WAY IN THE HEARTS THE DEAR ONES WHO STRETCHED OUT A HAND TO RECEIVE IT!

GOD BLESS... See you Saturday?

A Great Day on the Streets of Portland

Today was a great day to be on the streets of Portland! The sun was out and hundreds of people received a gospel tracts. I was able to speak to a several who expressed some interest in perhaps visiting church. Joanna spoke to an elderly man that said flat out said that he would visit, but you never know just how serious they are.

I met groups from two other churches who were out sharing tracts with others today. We were encouraged and exchanged information for a possible 'big' tract day in the future.

Pray for those who received the tracts that God would use them to fulfill His perfect will.... Read More

Again I want to thank each and every one who came out!
