Grace Upon Grace
Yesterday we asked you to pray for the full day the team had today. By the grace of God, not only did the team survive, but they thrived. By the grace of God, Marshall encouraged many in the gospel at chapel. By the grace of God, we had a salvation at our park today. By the grace of God, we had an estimated 250 adults and kids at the park party tonight. In a nutshell, God did more than we could ask or imagine.
“Today was amazing!!! We climbed blueberry hill this morning then headed down to the park. God was working in these kids today. Today was a hard day at the park. The devil was trying to gain a foothold with these kids through name calling and rudeness. But God used that for good! There was a little boy today who came to Christ after a conversation with Mia that started with a resentment towards God because God created mean people. His name is Ben. He had started the conversation with a resentment towards God and left it a follower of God. Praise the Lord! It was so encouraging to see today the number of kids that left with their very own bible to read when they got home!
Today was also our park party!!! We had a record number of people at our party with a head count of over 250! We had games, face paint, hairspray, food, and Rob Benjamin gave a gospel presentation. We ended the night with a bang in the form of a dance party once all the supplies had been packed up! We are so grateful for the many opportunities we have had to plant, water, and harvest this week, and we look forward to our last two days to connect with these kids!”
