Faires, Indians, and Cowgirls......

Here I am with another little cowgirl. She was out "trick or treat"-ing and she got some candy, but she also recieved the best treat anyone could ever give here, the truth!







Tonight, Christina, Beccca, and I dressed up as a fairy, indian and cowgirl, respectfully. We then went into Armada and passed out packets with cansy and gospel literature in them to all the kids. We had a blast!

O the Grander of the Canyon

Today we went to the Grand Canyon. As they say, “a picture says a thousand words” so, I will let you enjoy the pictures without comment from me, however they do not even come close to what it is like in person!

Santa Cruz

On Saturday, we went to Santa Cruz and spent the day relaxing. It was lots of fun and I saw so many things that I hope I will never forget. It was a nice time just to take a deep breath and spend time with each other. Thank you, Lord.


This guy's bark was bigger than his bite. He made all the nose in the world when we got on the dock with him, but he did not do anything to us. It was really neat to see one of God's creations up close.

Perseverance

This is a picture of our group last week. Pray for the people who took the seminar that they will use what they have learned, but most of all that they will see people as God sees them; as souls who will spend eternity in hell without Christ. Pray that their hearts will break because of that and that it will give them compassion and love for people.

San Fransico

One day last week we took the seminar students into San Fransico to preach in the open air. It was an amazing time of learning for both them and us. Hearing the gospel preached was so refreshing and encouraging. It is one story that never gets old. Pray for the people who heard the gospel, for the converssations, and for those who made professions; if they are not saved that they will come to know Jesus Christ and if the are that they will continue to grow in Him.

Heart Wrenching

On Monday afternoon, October ninth two thousand six, there was an open-air meeting at the University of California Berkeley. While Thomas Bell was preaching, there was a young woman taking notes adamantly and she made a rough sketch of the paint board. During the meeting, she turned to her left and asked me, “What’s this guy’s point?” I mumbled something like, “Lets listen and find out” or something along those lines. She kept writing things down and she even copied the Ezekiel Project emblem off of Tom’s shirt and wrote down the name of the organization. Earlier in the meeting I heard her say “this guy is probably trying to sell something”. She earnestly scribbled notes as the message continued. Some guy asked her about what was going on and she said she was not sure, but it seemed pretty interesting. Was I ever excited! At the end of the meeting I asked her if she ever figured out what the point of the message. “Not really” was all she said. I then asked her why she was taking notes on the talk and she told me for the Cal Times. She stated that they sent her up there because they thought it might be interesting, but it turned out not to be. Before I could say anything else, she turned on her heel and walked down the hill. What a disappointment! I thought it was going to be a perfect opportunity, but it turned out to be a flop. I was then reminded that “For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish, foolishness; but unto us which are saved is the power of God.” (1 Corinthians 1:18) I thought the message was powerful and effective, but this girl could not care less about it. It sobers me to think that girl died she would realize how much she needed to understand the point of the message because she will be spending eternity without Christ. I can only pray the Lord would use that contact and she will spend time going over her notes and realize her need for the Savior.

UC Berkeley

Yesterday, the Ezekiel Project took the students from the seminar we are conducting in San Jose to the University of California Berkeley to show them what an open-air meeting is like. There were so many people! At one point one of the Ezekiel Project staff members, Tom Bell, was preaching to an audience of at least 250. It was incredible! When we got back, we were reminded that we succeed if we are faithful, not based on how many people were in the meeting. The Lord is the one who saves, not us. There were many good conversations afterwards and the students were excited to see how everything worked. Tomorrow we will be going to San Francisco to let the students preach. I am excited. Continue to pray for us.

Creation

Well, we have not made it to our destination as of yet, but Lord willing, we will be there sometime tomorrow. Below are somesnapshots of the scenery from the road. Our God has made a vdery pretty earth for us to live in. The only think you can say when you see these things is "God is amazing!" By the way, the pictures do not do the creation justice. "The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament showeth his handiwork." Psalms 19:1

On the Road Again....

We have stopped in Texas for the night and will be leaving again early in the morning. I would love to be able to write about everything that has happened, but I also love sleep, so here are some pictures to tide you over until I can write more. God has blessed abundantly so far and He is teaching me so much. While we are on the road, we will be covering Personal Evangilism. I am looking forward to all it entails. We are due in California Friday night, so I hope to be able to write more then. Continue to pray for us, our travels, and our witness to all who we come in cantact with, both believers and non alike.
