As I wrap up summer project, I want to highlight a few of our team’s success stories. So far, we have had 22 people trust Christ. One of them, an older woman named Kathy, just trusted Christ a few days ago. One of the girl d-groups set out to a local shopping center to get into conversations with people on Friday night. They tried to talk to people a few times and were turned down before they realized they hadn’t prayed for their time! They prayed that God would lead them to the person/people that He wanted them to minister to that night. As soon as they finished, they came across Kathy. When they started talking to her, she told them she was an agnostic who wasn’t really sure about God. They spent the next hour talking with her, sharing their own personal testimonies, and going through the Knowing God Personally booklet (a CCC tool that puts the Gospel in 4 scriptural, understandable points). Upon hearing the Lord’s great love for her, His ability to redeem her from hurt and brokenness, and the promise of new life, she trusted Christ and spilled her guts about all of the pain in her life. The girls who talked with her will be going back to build her up in her understanding of the truth and assurance of salvation. Hallelujah, what a great story!!
