Hey Sisters and Brothers in Christ,

Well, I hope you had a good day walking with the Lord.  I had a pretty good day out sharing the Gospel, and Madelene prayed with me to receive Christ.  She is African American with a bit of an accent from overseas.  She had full features, nice, average looking girl with long braids past her shoulders.  She was waiting for a ride at the doors by the book store and I asked her if she would answer some questions.  After I asked her why God would let her into Heaven she said she did not know, so I launched into the Gospel.  She was attentive and asked some questions.  She went to Church regularly but had never asked to be forgiven based on what Jesus had done and I could tell the story was novel to her.  So I pulled out a booklet to show her a of couple verses (having already quoted several others to her) and offered her the prayer that she read through and she asked, “Should you say ‘Savior and Lord’ or ‘Lord and Savior’?”  I explained, “Most places in the NT the word for Lord means ‘God’, so once you think about it that way it does not matter.”  She was fine with that finished reading and I said, “You could pray the prayer now.”  She hesitated, but once I said she need not pray it out loud she was fine with it and prayed to receive Christ.  She borrowed my phone then, and found out her ride was not coming.  “I need a bus schedule,” she said and so I walked her toward student activities.  She took a Bible study from me but said she was sure she would not have time to read any more books.  We talked as we walked about where to get them on line more cheaply.  She wanted to attend Elmhurst college and I talked to her about the Greek sorority on campus that had a scholarship that usually worked there and pointed her to student activities to ask about that.  I left her once we were in sight of the Student activities office, as I try not to appear within eye shot of the bureaucrats therein.

I bumped into some other peeps who knew the Lord or who I had talked to before and it was a pretty good day since Madelene prayed. 🙂

So thanks so much for your prayers for the ministry and for evangelism on campus today if you had a chance, God was Good.

In Him,

Bob Bollow
