God has been extra good to me this past week...
I just received a report on how the evangelistic event and outreach at Montclair State University went.
It was held on October 25th in the evening. According to a friend who is on staff at Change Collegian Network (CCN), there were a total of approximately 75 people present, mostly students but some staff members, too.
CCN's ministry team set up the auditorium with their sound equipment and other things that were needed. When the event began, several students who were Christians gave their testimonies of how they came to believe as they do. One student, however, was chosen to be the main speaker of the evening. He shared his story of how he left satanism and devil worship, and is now a Christian. The audience, I was told, was thoroughly engrossed by what he had to say.
In addition, my friend Dan, who's a retired high school teacher, spoke next. He spent about ten minutes giving the audience my background, explaining how it came about that I ended up in prison and what I've been doing with my life now. He then read my prepared message to them. This was followed by the showing of the film, Son of Sam/Son of Hope. Then someone from CCN shared the gospel message, and anyone who wanted to receive Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord was invited to do so.
In addition to this, the members of CCN's team gave everyone present a copy of my testimony pamphlet titled, Son of Hope. Also, ten students who were selected in a random drawing, received a copy of my DVD, Son of Sam/Son of Hope (to watch, see Videos). While two others won the drawing for a copy of my book, Son of Hope. None of this was my idea. It was something CCN's team wanted to do.
In any event, the outreach went well. There were no problems. Every single person got to hear the gospel. Lives were touched, and some students got saved. Plus, according to my friend Tiffany, there were several Muslim students in attendance. This thrilled my heart because I have a deep love for Muslims, and I desire to see them get born again.
What a blessing to have been part of this, even though I had to settle for a stand-in to speak in my behalf. The entire event was something only the Lord could have engineered.
