Modrell Ave. Outreach Update



Another incredible outreach on August 29th as we ministered to a needy area on the north side of Elkhart- (Modrell Ave.) We praise God that the rain didn't slow us down nor any of the neighborhood people, as the turn out was incredible! We served over 250 hotdogs and 120 grilled cheese. The neighborhood kids enjoyed the bounce house, face painting and puppets. Many of the people were helping themselves to the free clothing and we gave out many new Bibles and children's Bibles. We had some gift card raffles and several families were blessed as they won a free  gift card.

Through out the whole day we had lots of one on one ministry conversations going on as we witnessed and testified about Jesus, praying with folk and planting Gospel seeds.

One of the highlights of the day, was a lady who came to the block party through a flyer she found at a area laundry mat. The interesting thing about that was we had not put any flyers in this laundry mat. (God is good!)  She found the flyer and attempted to, on foot-as she had no vehicle- to find the outreach. Her story was, after wandering the streets for an hour she found the outreach site. She was able to get some free food and clothing but best off all, she responded to the Gospel message as Brother Josh Eaton from Teen Challenge delivered the Word. She came forward to receive forgiveness and get her life on track with Jesus!!... PTL!

A big shout of thanks to all the team who gave of their Saturday to serve and share the love of Jesus! Also, a big shout of thanks to all who prayed and gave toward this outreach event. Thank you!!

Please check out the pictures below as a picture is worth a thousand words.

*Also, Please pray for the weekly County Jail Meeting and the Juvenile Detention ministry as God is doing a great work in both of these facilities.

Thanks!
