Light in the Darkness

This past week we took our Spring Break staff on our "Knock" outreach.  What is knock you ask?  Simply put, we knock on peoples doors and ask them if we can pray for them.  I cannot tell you how amazing this outreach is, and if you have never done it, you should!  We have chose a particular area in our city called "Felony Flats"...no need to explain how the area got its name.  The above picture is of one of our staff members Lindy and a lady we met named Barbara.  Barbara is a Christian and has lived in this rough neighborhood for years.  She has done many prayer walks through her neighborhood, and when we prayed for her, she began to cry. "This neighborhood needs Jesus...and I have seen churches come and go and do prayer walks...but I have never heard of anyone actually knocking on doors and praying for people."  We were humbled and honored to meet this prayer warrior.  To top it off, she offered her home to all our Mission Adventures teams to use as a "launching center" for our "Knock" ministry we will be doing with our groups in that neighborhood.
