Parade Day in Black Canyon City, AZ

Tracts Abound

Last Saturday was such a blast! My kids (Kiah & Isaac) are in a home shcool student council group called SALT (Servants And Leader in Truth). There were about 10 kids there all stocked with tracts. There were $3.00 bills, $7.00 bills, Millions, and even Billions.

Our church has an archery club that had a float in the parade and they were also walking in the parade and handing out tracts.

Between those two groups and others from the church tracting on their own, we were able to distribute over 1500 tracts in just under 2 hours. God is good!

I don't think I have ever received such great acceptance while handing out tracts. Not that I am judging the event by that, but I was surprised at how few folks turned down the Gospel tracts. In my opinion, the Obama Millions were the hit of the day.

In our mostly conservative small town, many were thrilled to get a Million Dollar Bill, and yet when they saw Obama's face on it they grimaced and turned it away. That is until I offered, "you can always use it for target practice". I did ask them to read the Gospel message printed on the back before turning it into confetti.

Here are some pictures of the event. The weather was perfect, and we had a great time working for the kingdom. I pray that all who received the Gospel in written form last weekend would be drawn by the Holy Spirit to a knowledge of the Truth.
