Today we were laboring on Bradley University campus, with one BfA table indoors and two BfA tables outdoors. Over 30 conversations, 48 Bibles, and other ministry books and tracts were passed out on the campus. One even prayed to receive the Lord! Here are two highlights on some we have met today:

Today, a male student approached our table, and he was very open, gladly taking a New Testament Recovery Version offer from us. We then asked him if he was willing to meet with some trainees for a Bible study or appointment. He responded by saying, “I have time right now!” We had an extra open chair at the BfA table, so we had him sit down with us and we had an appointment on the spot! One of the trainees had a wonderful conversation with him, and the trainee told the student a short testimony of how the trainee had come to know the Lord in a real way. After reading some verses in Romans 10, the trainee asked if the student wanted to pray to receive the Lord. The response was immediate and genuine, and the student followed the trainee to pray to receive the Lord. Praise the Lord for the transfer of this vessel from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of the Son of God’s love. Soon after, we found out that this student had met with the saints previously, but at the time, he was not very open to continue meeting with the saints. We are so thankful for the Lord’s grace and mercy, that the Lord continued to work in this one!

Another woman drove up to the intersection where our table was and opened her vehicle door since there was time to converse at the stoplight. She asked, “May I have a Bible?” and a trainee and local saint gave her a Bible and Basic Elements of the Christian Life booklet. The local saint noticed that there was still 30 seconds left at the stoplight and ran back to the door and got her contact information.

Prayer burdens:

• Pray for appointments being made with the contacts who received the Bible.
• Pray that those who did set up an appointment with us would make that time and that through this there would be a way for further shepherding with the local saints.
