Today, Christians all around the world celebrated the day that our LORD Jesus Christ was crucified. We do this, because it was His death, that brings to us eternal life... through faith in Him.
It's GOD's provision, that allows this Ministry to continue each week. This week, He did something extremely special that I think will be spoken of for years to come... Amanda was able to obtain a 4 pack of tickets to the Padres vs Dodgers game (GO PADRES!!!) We thought it would be so awesome to use the 2 remaining tickets to bless some of our 'neighbors'. More of that later...
The message shared tonight was well received, and 2 of our team members took the opportunity to speak & pray with those that showed an interest in giving their hearts to Jesus. That was really cool to see! Our volunteer numbers have grown in the past few weeks, so it was great to have the men be able to go among those the crowd. That has always been the hard part for me, because there are just so many people, and I can't get to everybody at once, so it's really nice to have that assistance available from time to time.
Everything went smoothly as far as the dinner went. We brought down a large bag of the awesome hats that we were gifted with last weakened. It seemed like most people were appreciative of them. It's always a blessing for us to see how something like a beanie can bring such a beautiful smile to somebody. (Please take this moment to consider, even the small things in your life, and never take them for granted.)
Onto the game we went: Amanda, myself, Sid, and David. Neither of the guys had ever been to Petco Park. It was a treat for all of us. The LORD hooked us up with a fantastic parking spot through another brother in the LORD. Although the Padres got stomped, we all had a blast!
