Promise for the Pilgrim

"Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness"  Col 1:11

Victories in the Vineyard

StoryFest - George West, TX
Pastor Traxler and the Brush Country CC obtained the booth for us.  We had 27 ask the Lord to save them.  There were 10 who received a witness, but did not make a profession of faith.  1 received assurance of salvation and 850 got a Gospel tract placed in their hands.

A lady with a very "progressive" appearance stopped by the booth.  We asked her if she was born again.  She stumbled all over it.  Before we could clarify our question, the lady she was with said, "I know for sure that I was saved a looong time ago."  The friend saw the opportunity to speak up and did so, boldly.  Not obnoxiously, but with firm assurance.  We believe that testimonies from friends and relatives like this, effectively make lasting impressions on the ones they love.

Stephen and Enrique, teen boys, came by and made a profession of faith.  They left and later brought several of their friends, then leaned over the railing on their forearms and listened while Jonathon asked the Lord to save him.  When Pat was finished, she told the first 2 boys how Andrew had brought his brother Peter to the Lord and about the rewards for doing so.  They were thrilled and beaming.  The JOY of doing right is unmistakable.

Angela prayed and ask the Lord to save her.  Later, she brought her cousin Gina to the booth.  She wanted Gina to be saved.  She took her through the doors and told her, "When you get saved, you are going to be sooo relieved." Angela made Gina wait until Pat was through with some others, then sat with her.  Angela was like the "woman at the well", she was trying to let everyone know. She was electrified and put a spark in us, too!

Faith Festival - Faithville, TX
Faithville is a small, rural shopping area between Bulverde and New Braunfels and is owned by a Christian couple.  All of the businesses have a chance to showcase their goods and services at the Faith Festival.  Pastor Leinneweber and Heritage BC have a building rented there, so we helped them with their booth.  15 made a profession of faith in Christ.  140 gladly received a Gospel tract.  The man supervising parking knew what we were doing.  He also knew a lot of people and sent as many as he could to the booth.  At one point he sent a man, then later the wife, who had to have her daughter translate.  All 3 asked the Lord to save them, the wife with much weeping.  A new couple from the church helped and were very excited as to how easy it was to seat people for a witness and how prospects followed through and ask the Lord to be their personal Saviour.  Almost everyone that helps is amazed at the simplicity of public event evangelism and how willing people are to give their name, address, phone and age for follow-up.  Everyone says, "You have to see it to believe it."

Christmas Tree Lighting and Parade, Bulverde, TX
Pastor Leinneweber and Heritage BC had also obtained a booth for this event.  13 made a profession of faith, 14 received a thorough witness, 1 received assurance of salvation.  This means that a total of 28 people were seated and dealt with (Everyone wants to know how to get to heaven, they just need to be asked the right questions).  7 from the church worked in the booth with Steve and Pat.   This event has a good attendance.  520 of them received a tract in their hand, some coming by and even asking for one.  One lady was saved with her 2 daughters and son at one table while her twin sons and a nephew was saved up-front.  The son who was saved with the mother, didn't even watch the parade, he kept asking Pat questions and wanting to know more.

Touching Testimonies

Katlyn        15
I opened my heart to Jesus.

Teen girls can be very expressive.

Jacqueline 43
Called on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ to be saved and forgiven for all my sins and to become a changed person.

She was doubtful to start with, but wanted to know more.  She got it.

Olga, Jessica
Jessica (daughter) interpreted for me. 

She told her mother how to be born again and as Olga prayed, Jessica did, too. 

Elsa           57

Elsa was skeptical, but wanted to hear how to be born again. After hearing she commented "What a beautiful story".  She prayed and asked the Lord to save her and told Pat, "What a beautiful prayer".

Erin
He forgives us for our sins, so we can have eternal life in Heaven. Jesus died on the cross for us because he didn't want us to have to go to that horrible place and now we don't have to go there.

Erin certainly understood what happened to her.

Madison
November 21, 2009, I am not a sinner.  I am a saint.
