July 5- Impacting Inner City D.C. for Jesus

Today was an amazing day of ministry!

The Team woke up at 8 am, ate breakfast, and headed out to the bus.

We traveled about 45 minutes or so until we arrived in Washington D.C. There the team met up with Pastor Steven. Pastor Steven is the pastor of 'About my Father's Business' church. This is a church that is heavily focused on evangelism (and the phrase 'heavily focused' is an understatement).

Pastor Steven shared with us his passion for reaching lost people. I think I speak for everyone when I say that we certainly felt inspired by his stories and heart for evangelism.

Next we ate a short lunch, then got all prayed up and headed out. While out, we engaged in worshiping Jesus by feeding the poor, sharing our faith, and lots of prayer for the people and city of D.C. During 5 hours of ministry we handed out about 200 packed lunches and even more bottled water as we followed the example of Jesus by hanging out with the lost and lonely here in Washington.

The evening ended with dinner, a teaching time, and 'Way of the Master' DVD.

The students headed off to host homes at 8pm.

Please ask the Lord of the Harvest to raise up churches on fire for reaching the lost here in DC. Also, please be in the prayer for the growth of the many, many seeds planted and cultivated by our ministry here.
