Last Day




We had a busy last day in Vegas. Getting ready to go, it was sad leaving the Lady Luck, our dumpy hotel. In he morning we spent some time praying and worshipping God, and went out for more evangelsim. Yes more! We continued our focus downtown near Freemont Street. There was a ton of commotion, due to a large parade going right through there! It was a really productive time again, and we prayed with 20 people in about an 1 1/2 hours. There were some really powerful encounters. One thing that Denise and Corrie shared was how they prayed for this guy who was an ex-Mormon. After they talked and prayed with him, God compelled them to ask if he needed healing. He extended a withered hand and shared how he was shot some time ago and it destroyed the moving of his arm. Well they put their hands on and prayed, and all felt a tingling, and heat sensation. He stretched out and partially opened his hand for the first time in years! Needless to say he was excited that God touched him.

After that we took a break for lunch at the UNLV campus again. The weather got cold and windy and we headed to 'The Strip' for our last session of evangelism. It was the most difficult time we had yet. We prayed with 8 people to begin a relationship with Christ. After that we took some time to see some sights before we had to catch our plane home. It was a midnight flight from Vegas, and after the time changes and layovers, we arrived in Syracuse at 12:15 PM today. We are all pretty tired and in need of serious sleep. We had an amazing time overall, I think we all learned so much through this experience, and it was a privilege to minister to so many people. Thanks to those who supported us and took the time everyday to pray. We are so thankful!
