Outreaches

We continue to have outreaches every week: feeding and ministering to the homeless, drug-addicts. alcoholics, pimps, prostitutes and even some so-called "normal" people on the streets of the ATL.

Last Tuesday night, we had a team of about 25 volunteers from Christ Chapel in Zebulon, Georgia who prepared and served the food to feed about 40+ of our homeless friends. We were also joined by 29 people from two youth groups: one from Dallas, Texas and another from Greensboro, North Carolina. We sang songs, preached the Gospel and saw about 20 people respond to surrender their lives to Jesus Christ.

Last night we had about 12 volunteers from Mableton Assembly of God who prepared and served a spaghetti dinner to the people at our Whitehall Street site. There was also a team of high school students from Indiana who came with AIM ( Adventures in Missions ) from Gainesville, Georgia. There were approximately 60-70 homeless. We preached the word from Mark 8:34-38. Five men responded and came forward to surrender their lives to the Lord Jesus Christ.

We appreciate all the prayer and support from all our partners. Without your help we couldn't do this.
THANK YOU!!!

To God be the glory!

Charles G. Finney - from "The Infinite Worth of the Soul"

Come to Christ, and say, "Oh, Jesus! thou hast bought me,--I will be thine. Thou hast died for me, and purchased my life; and shall the life which thou has redeemed be given to Satan? No! no! as I am a man. No! as I have an immortal soul. No! as I belong to the government of God. No! as I hope for salvation. No! I dread to displease God, and desire to please my Saviour. Heaven beareth witness that I renounce my sins; and let God write it in heaven." Are you not ready? Why not? Make up your minds now and for ever, right here on the spot, in the house of God where the angels wait to tell the story, where the Holy Spirit breathes upon the people. What say you sinner,--are you willing to come over from Satan to God?You must decide now, one way or the other; and if we could see what infinite consequences, in respect to persons here, are turning on that decision, methinks the congregation would wail out with agony to see what destinies are trembling on this momentous point! See that needle, trembling on its pivot! It must, when it settles, point either one way or the other--to heaven or to hell. Sinner! such is your destiny. What do you say?
