I had a wee look on Stewart’s blog and he has listed some of the names of the people that we have met on the streets this past week, and I would love ask you to pray for these people, just so we can cover these people’s lives in as much prayer as we can. If only you knew all the stories of their lives that have been shared with us – alcoholics, homeless, lost, raped, beaten, confused, dissatisfied, searching, hearts so hard, loveless, gang controlled, drug addicts, partners dieing, loved ones committing suicide, lonely, isolated, foreign, churched, unchurched, cult-controlled, abused, encouraged, challenged in their own faith…and the list goes on. And so do the people – these are just the names of the people we have got and remembered. There were many more who were chatted to for a brief moment, the reasoning behind the whole free thing explained and either received or rejected, and those who just received a friendly smile and a free CD and some sweets. Please also remember them in your prayers.

As for my thoughts on the week – there’s just been so many. So many laughs, so many tears, so many questions, so many awe-struck moments. I’ve learnt the value of fellowship and friendship more than ever, and also the joy it is to stand on the streets in chucking down rain just to tell people about God. And to stand and watch God move, people sharing stories from their lives with these random people in red hoodies. God is good.
