Evangelism

Sunday was a very busy and productive day. We did a prayer walk through the downtown area, and then did a session of evangelism. What was cool is that we reached out to a completely different people group than we imagined. We focused on many of the homeless and poor people that live downtown. Vegas is a city of extremes in every way. Just a few blocks off the opulence of "The Strip" you can find people living in trailers, and pretty poor neighborhoods. Well we spent some time reaching into this community and it was really cool. We prayed with 22 people to start a relationship with Christ.

In the evening, we focused our efforts on Freemont Street. I sent the picture of this area in the last post. It is a bustling center of activity at night. It was different than we expected. There were so many distractions that we had to battle. We learned a lot, and prayed with 16 people to begin a relationship with God. God is doing a work of pulling us together as one unit. We are enduring many spiritual attacks. It seems like somebody is getting sick or afflicted each day. We are enjoying our time and it is stretching us beyond our limits. (Note the homeless people sleeping in the park below, this is where we started evangelism)
