Yesterday was very powerful! We witnessed 20 people giving their lives to Christ. There may have been more but those are all that came forward. The service started with the Jesus film. After that our entire team went up front and started singing “Light the Fire” and “I love you Lord”. After that Michael, Josh, Kristina, Riley and Jenna gave their testimonies. You could see that the audience was engaged with what we had to say. It was pretty neat to see how God opened the hearts and minds of the people listening. After the testimonies Hermano Jesus gave his message. It was at this point where we felt the Holy Spirit falling on this place. Some of us went out into the crowd, placed our arms on the people and prayed for them. It was so cool to see the people come forward and give their lives to Christ. It was also cool knowing that the people that we colored with, played soccer with, jumped rope with and painted nails with were at that moment changing their lives forever. We ended the service singing “Revelation 19″. Yesterday we witnessed firsthand, the grace of God.
In His Grip,
Team 4 (Josh Van Wyhe, Kevin Berens, Kristin Vanden Hoek, Tami Schichtel, Morgan Noordyke, Al Jurgens, and Ashtyn Postema)
