Here is the report from Bridget from the Mariners outreach:
This was one of the hardest outreaches I think I’ve ever been on! It was SUCH a SPIRITUAL BATTLE!!! We had 12 people out there giving out tracts, (11 + myself). We had a total of 7500 tracts going in, but they were extremely hard to give out this year! I had SOOOO MANY refusals it wasn’t even funny! We have about 4000 left over, which means that we only gave out 3500, which wasn’t even half! 🙁 I’m soooo discouraged! We did have several good conversations with people on the bus to and from the stadium, though. Please pray for Hara the atheist, Megan and her boyfriend who kept giving me excuse after excuse as to why they can’t believe that Jesus is the only way. Veronica, Bianca, and her sister Christine were very open to the Truth! And let’s not forget Jarvis and his two girlfriends who were goofing around and wouldn’t take anything we said seriously. Thank You Jesus for the conversations we had with those people.
One interesting thing that happened was that there were 3 guys out there wearing “A” frame sign boards that said “Jesus or Hell!” on them. I didn’t know them, as they weren’t part of our group, so I went over to them and introduced myself. They asked me what I was giving out, and first he read it to himself, and he liked it, so he used his megaphone and read it aloud to everyone!
