We invited Paul Mitchell --- a new Pastor in the area---- to join us at the Detention Center tonight. He spoke a powerful message of the need to have Christ in your heart. Throughout his message he gave his own testimony....of how Christ had worked in his life. Toward the end of the evening he prayed the sinners prayer and told the young people that if they said this prayer with him that it had to come from their heart. Afterwards, he said that they needed to tell us if they had prayed that prayer. So when we passed out the prayer request sheets we said they could write it down ---- that they had prayed the prayer. One young man, King, not only wrote it down that he wanted to stay with us afterwards but he came to us and said...."did you read what I wrote - I'm serious - I mean it".
We had 2 girls also stay with us.....Reece and Calista. Please keep these young people in your prayers. Paul spoke to them about "the battle"...... but how powerful God is and He will be there to walk with them.
We are so encouraged to have met Paul and his wife Gloria. They are so ready and willing to help us in our Ministry in whatever way they can. Paul is a full blood Lakota - but raised by a white family. He has a testimony that the young people can relate to and he isn't afraid to share it with anyone.
Please also keep Paul and Gloria in your prayers.
And we can't ever say thank you enough for all the prayers you lift for us.
Gary and Barb
