Hi there!
It is has been two weeks since our last big youth outreach event!
As usual… 1,000’s flooded the field each night!
It is so amazing to me that even though we didn’t have any celebrities or perfect publicity that still 1,000’s of people would come! It is such a proof to me that God really tugs on their heart and brings them. Why?Because He loves them so much and desires them to hear the gospel so they can be saved!!
While I was preaching I saw many Muslim people in the crowd. There were two girls standing right in front of the stage. They were listening very intently and seemed to be enjoying everything that was going on. (pic below)
Youth from local churches did what they were trained to do on the field. They met and ministered to the young people they met on the field. Gave them books that explain what salvation is all about and they take their phone and address so that they can continue to visit them to help them understand it even more.
I was so overjoyed when I heard that those two Muslim girls were met by local youth and went home with the salvation books that night!
It is a joy to preach Jesus to them for the first time and sow the gospel seed in to their hearts! And it is also a joy to see the youth from local churches doing their part to help that seed inside of them grow so that they can really understand Jesus more clearly!!
“Joy” is maybe the best word to describe all of the emotions we can feel while doing a big event like this. I truly felt so honored to be a part of it as I heard the voice of the crowd follow me in praying out the salvation prayer with me and receive Jesus into their hearts! (You can actually watch and listen to this in the video link below!)
Doing events like this takes months of preparation, 1,000’s of dollars, all the energy my body can round up, and many people all around the world and locally all taking up their part… but I am convinced it is soooooo worth it!! Those souls are worth everything.. they are worth Jesus’ life! If Jesus was willing to die for them the least I can do is spend all my time, energy, money and whatever else I have to tell them about it..
Truly …. A JOY!!!!
Thank you soooooo much for taking part in this eternal joy!!
