What do you do when you drive by a grown man hitting a tennis ball off a cement wall in the middle of the afternoon? If you answered drive by, then I am much like you. If you answered pull in and talk to him, I am much like you. Let me explain.
"God is giving us great opportunities to talk about Him with others!"
I was out visiting businesses and sharing my info card about my family (see the blog from last week) when I saw T. I drove by and within two seconds I am doing a U-turn. I pull in and begin with small talk and learn he is a Catholic by upbringing but not by practice. I share with him the importance of considering the claims of Jesus and leave him with the thought that if what Jesus said was true its not something he can take lightly. I am looking forward to visiting with him again and building a relationship. We are so thankful for your prayer support. God is giving us great opportunities to talk about Him with others!
Tonight, we had a great meeting with our Plant Team as we brainstormed ideas of how to engage the community. Over the next few weeks, our goal is to have a strategy in place that will guide us in making connections in our community.
Last week, we asked you to pray for our weekly neighbor night. Keep it up! We have another meal this week and are hoping for an ice cream get-together over Memorial Day weekend with them too.
Pray that God would give the Plant Team wisdom on how to engage the community. We want to do things that show God’s love while learning about the needs in town and how we might be able to help.
In Christ,
The Clouse's
