Knocking on Doors

Every Tuesday we take our Mission Adventures students to neighbourhoods in our city to do door to door prayer.  Super simple...knock on a door, tell people we are praying for our city and ask is they need prayer for anything.  This outreach paints a great picture of the Gospel message, as sometimes nobody is home, sometimes we get rejected, sometimes we are rebuked, but sometimes people open up for prayer, and then more than that, sometimes we are able to see people give their lives to Christ.  such is the story of the young man in the picture above named Horatio.  I knocked on his door, and from the get go we started off a great discussion.  He actually said he was thinking about God, whether He existed, etc...After speaking to him for about 20 minutes, I asked him what he thinks would happen to him if he dies today.  He had NEVER been asked that question in his life.  Through that question, I was able to share the Gospel to him and the Lord opened his heart and rite there in his doorway he knelt down and gave his life to Christ!   What an amazing God we have!!  Please pray for Horatio.  He helps his father with a trucking business and is away from home a lot.  Pray for him to find a good church, and Christian friends.  I aim to stay in contact with him.
