HARVEY, ILLINOIS OUTREACH

We had a great outreach today with a team of around 20-25. The day started out very slow but things intensified as the day went along. It was chilly in the 30's with a pretty strong wind. We did see some snow flurries.

We had several that gave their lives to JESUS and the team prayed for many. We are doing a five city circle that will eventually tie many in the area together. We also do this so that we can build relationships with the people. Brother Harold Dade of the Chicago area has been setting up the locations. Brother Harold loves JESUS and is a joy to work with.

We had a large amount of clothes and a number of people showed up to get them. We fed the people ham & beans, cornbread, polish sausage, hotdogs, chips, candy, grilled cheese, and pop. We had food by the case for people to take home along with other personal care items.

We set up at Dixie Highway and Sibley Blvd.

Beth from Voice Ministries was a blessing to have on the team today. A real servant carrying cases of food to people's cars.

Brenda with her brother Tony were also a huge blessing to the team today. Leigh prays with a woman. Caleb, a student at The Crossing Alternative School in Goshen came out today to do community service. Caleb was extremely helpful and kept busy all day. He was the best student that we have ever had out with us. Thanks Caleb!!We had a bunch of kids today!!! The all really enjoyed the hotdogs, candy, and pennies.

Rev. Darrin from Chicago was back out with us today and what a blessing he is. Rev. Darrin has worked with us in the past. He is here with Brother Harold praying for a man.

I had to get my picture with the little girl named "RAVEN". She was such a little sweetheart with her brothers and sisters.

There were times when we were very busy!!

Eileen and I with one of the areas "finest", this officer was a Christian. He stopped to eat with us instead of going to a restaurant.

Eileen and Brenda with a man that they prayed over. He was in tears and told them that they really helped him and touched him. Thank you JESUS!!Rev. Darrin ministering to another brother.We couldn 't have handled things without "Big Ben" who just happens to be on break.
