SPECIAL: Friday Night Outreach

If you don't come to Friday night outreach downtown, I'm telling you, you are missing out!! Every Friday it's always something new and exciting. About 10pm Friday night 15-20 teens and adults meet, pray, and then head down the streets of Tejon and all around to tell people about Jesus Christ. The streets are always packed with club-goers, homeless people, and people doing different things. Here's a lowdown of the past few weeks.

Three weeks ago, one of us was able to pray with a young girl who works at the hot dog stand. She got saved and came to outreach, youth and church the next day! And I've seen her at church a few times since then! Thank God we are seeing fruit! That same night, Daniel pulled out his guitar and made up a song about "it's not ok to be gay..." and you can imagine the reaction that got! It was a funny thing, but at the same time people heard that according to God's word it's not ok to be gay and Jesus has a plan for their lives.

We also had Joel handcuffed and chained to the devil (David Albright in a devil suit) screaming and yelling saying, "I'm not a slave to sin, I'm perfectly fine!". Which he wasn't fine because he was chained to the devil pulling him and dragging him about! We got a lot of reaction out of that! People weren't to happy to see the devil out there, but it opened up a door for us to talk to people and tell them about Jesus. Many people heard the gospel and received a tract that night.


Mostly every Friday something wild happens! Whether a crazy, homless man follows us around all night and tries to argue with us, or people just manafest because they don't like the name Jesus. Either way the name Jesus is put out there and we pass out hundreds of tracts! And though it's crazy down there, we get a lot of people with an open heart looking for something real. And those people are why it's worth it. I thank God for those people who have a heart to hear and soak up every word. Pray that God brings more people with a ready heart to receive Him.


Sorry there arn't many pics but the pic man (aka Tyler) is outta town and I didn't take any! But I'm telling you it's a blast. So tomorrow, Friday night, we will be hitting the streets again. Don't miss out!
