Preaching the Gospel in Prescott (Court House Lighting & Christmas Parade

What a Great Turn Out!

I was so blessed yesterday by all who came out to give their Saturday to the Lord in witnessing for Christ Jesus.

Altogether our group numbered 27 saints. Thank you to Kristen, Matthew, Mariah, Renee, Lee, Timothy, Brandon, Michayla, Dave, Deanna, Logan, Liam, Bill, Dani, Natalie, Nick, Kiah, Isaac, Martha, Carol, Wes, Ronny. (pictured)

Also (not pictured) were Michael, Daniel, Daniel's Dad, and Carolyn.
What a great group. Your enthusiasm for the Lord truly blessed me. We had folks from Black Canyon City, Dewey, Prescott, Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, Surprise, Camp Verde, and 2 traveling evangelist families from Oregon. God brought us all together for one purpose this weekend. To proclaim His holiness and His salvation. Praise God for His sovereign hand. The traveling families are the James and Chafees. We were so blessed to have them join us and would encourage you to invite them to come and hit the streets where you live. You can find them "Agents for Christ" at www.agentsforchrist.org




My son Isaac handing out Million Dollar Bills before the parade started.

Isaac has a great boldness from God, and doesn't let fear hold him back from being obedient to the Lord.




This precious lady was Josephine. She is in her 80's and grew up in a Catholic home. We spent 20-30 minutes talking as I explained the Law of God and her need to recognize and repent of her sin.



For the most part, people were very friendly and gracious to allow us to engage them in conversation. We had many great opportunities to share the Gospel one on one and handed out over 1000 tracts during the course of the day.

If any of you that were there have additional pictures and stories of your encounters, please e-mail me, and I'll post them here on the blog.


Thank you to our Savior, Jesus!

Here are some other faces from the day and evening of preaching Christ in Prescott. Thank you Jesus for allowing us to have the privilege of being your ambassadors.









After a few hours on the streets and some great encounters, it was time for some food. We enjoyed sharing our stories and encouraging one another in the Lord before some of us headed back for the 6pm lighting and some more awesome opportunities.






Here are a few pictures of the faces and events after dark. What an awesome day. All glory goes to our great God and Savior. May He cause the increase.



This boy like many folks on the street was so excited at his "gift".



Isaac, Natalie & Kiah... the teen tracting team. Well, almost. Isaac and Natalie are both 12. Guess I shouldn't try and rush them, huh.



This group of 14 year olds (pictured above)were buzzing on Starbucks and were pretty distracted, but once we began discussing eternity, even phone calls from friends took a back seat, as they scolded their friend for answering the phone and told her, "hey, this is really important." May God bring the reality of the Truth to their young hearts.



The lights were beautiful, but not as beautiful as the faces of the people touched by the Gospel, and the faces belonging to the beautiful feet of those who were obedient to bring the good news. God is so faithful. Amen?!
