One Sixteen!!

I am in awe of God!  Tonight was the outreach at the Mitre Pub.  God did exceeding above all i could of asked or thought.  

The first hour we waited upstairs, praying and preparing.  After seeing that people we not coming, we prayed and went down stairs to invite the people who were already in the pub to come up for some food and to hang out.  Groups of people started to come up and start conversations with us.  Everyone got involved which was encouraging to see.  People came to pray, help set up, welcome people in, play live music, engage in conversation and share the gospel.  We had a chance to talk to two awesome guys from France and Iran, and shared the gospel with them.  They were really touched by Gods love through the warm welcomes and conversation.  Joe shared the gospel with two guys who were blown away that someone would approach them and lovingly invite them to come hang out.  At the end, I got to talk to three guys who were really hit when we shared the gospel with them.  While people were talking, we played music ate food, and ended the night with a pub quiz.  

Overall it was just an amazing night to meet people, get real with them, listen to their hearts and share Gods truth with them.  It was amazing because i expected it to be a night of being up on a stage sharing through a microphone, but God brought us away from the stage and allowed us to get real with people, which was far better.  It was such a beautiful night.

Please pray for the seeds that were planted.  Seriously, we all think people got saved which is incredible and a lot of them want to come to church or come to the regular Mitre bible study on Thursdays.  
Thank you everyone for praying.  We all learned so much tonight and were in awe watching God touch lives and transform people right in front of us.
