Hey Sisters and Brothers in Christ,

I hope you had a good day walking with the Lord. I had a slow day on campus but finally after about 3 hours I came across Erika who prayed to receive Jesus. I unfortunately ended the day with an LGBTQIA++ advocate for a half hour. I was glad to be done at the end out of the minefield of offense. Erika was a very sweet person her story is below if you have the time. I’d be grateful for your prayers for her.

Erika was sitting on the hallway that goes past the bookstore. She was a lovely Filipino girl with long hair with some red tint in it on the right side. She had a light brown cardigan sweater on. Petite small face, slightly broader nose. She said she had gone to Catholic Church some when younger and holidays sometimes now.  I asked her what she would say to God if she died and He asked. “Why should I let you into Heaven?” “I would say…” she paused thinking. “I may have done some bad things, actions. But God is about forgiveness right?” “Yes He is.” I replied. She thought she had a 90% chance of going to Heaven. I went through the Gospel with her and she was very attentive. She knew Jesus had died to take away our sins. I explained how God was paid, over paid really by the blood of Jesus that pays God back for all the imperfect things we have done that we owe God something perfect for. “Oh!” She said understanding. I explained the righteousness of God Jesus earned to our credit. “Oh!” she said again. I asked if she would want to be forgiven trusting in Jesus by faith after explaining that to her and she said, “Yes.” I went through the prayer asking if it was the desire of her heart and she nodded yes. I said she could pray it silently and I wouldn’t hear. But God would, and she’d know she was forgiven.
“Wanna do it?” “Ok,” she said with a laugh. I explained the Christian life walking by the Spirit’s power and gave her a Bible Showing her the “Where to Turn” section and the section of messianic passages He fulfilled and I wrote her name and the date and “forgiven!” in the front. I gave her Bible Promises for You and The Case for Christ answer Booklet and a Bible study. I told her I’d pray for her and if I saw her again I would wave. She thanked me and I headed out.

So thanks for your prayers for the Ministry and for evangelism today if you had a chance. God blessed me and good things were done.

In Him,

Bob
