It went very good. Pastor John LeVahn came about 1:15pm and helped me set up the canopy and we were ready to go by 1:30pm. People would look at the sign and then walk by though. It was about 2pm when a family from ND came up to talk and I handed them some tracts when Bill Jarvi showed up. Bill Jarvi showed up about 2pm and stayed till about 4:30pm. God used him to inspire me to be bolder in passing out tracts. Bill decided to just hand people the tracts and they would just take them. So I started to do that and we gave out approximately a couple hundred tracts. We did not hand out freezy pops because the ice in the cooler only keeps things cold, not frozen. So I bought some squirt guns at Wal-Mart to give out with the kids tracts ( 6-pack for a $1.00), very inexpensive to get tracts into kid’s hands, and thereby tracts into the parents’ hands.
We ended up having 10-15 ‘1-2-1’ conversations with people, besides the handing out of gospel tracts. I would say that 80-90% of the people we offered a tract to took it. We even had one family come back for more of them.
My wife, Candy showed up with Beau at about 6:30pm right when I told her I would be ending. She said she wasn’t going to come with Beau because supper time for him can be a real handful if he doesn’t eat. She showed up when I was taking a Husband and Wife through the Good Person Test. She waited and helped me take the canopy down. I thanked her for supporting me by showing up and helping cleanup.
For HIS Glory alone,
Nathe
