Dear praying friends,

I love love love LOVE Evening Beach Evangelism!

I’ve been sooo busy with ministry, that I haven’t had time to send this update on how our Beach Evangelism “season” ended.

It’s October now – a bit chilly in New England.

So please warm yourself up with this update on the outstanding things God did!

If you’d like to see my previous update from July on how the beginning of the Beach “season” went, that’s at: http://Luke-15.org/2014/07/this-is-why-i-love-love-love-evening-beach-evangelism/.

As you can see in the following photo, lots and lots of people from around the world and all different ages gather around and listen to the gospel message, many staying around afterwards for one-on-one discussions!

Beach Evangelism is a great place to train and build up the Church!

We had a number of Church Teams come out, as well as individuals who wanted to see first-hand what it can look like to reach out to strangers with the gospel of Jesus. That was fantastic!

Also, this summer I had to be out of town a few times for ministry out of State. So my friend Chris did an AMAZING job taking my place and running the outreach while I was gone. I’m so thankful that God could use those times to work in Chris’ life and help him grow in his skills.

Please pray for JT, a young man we met at the beach. We witnessed to him last summer, and he remembered us and I remembered him.

JT comes from an unchurched home, but he appears to be VERY OPEN to the gospel message! He hanged around our team all night. He even helped us give out gospel tracts!

I got JT’s email and suggested a good local church near him and he attended and said he liked it and wanted to keep going.

I love being able to connect people with local churches! What an honor!

I hope the following photos are an encouragement to you!

Thank you for your prayers, notes of encouragement, and financial support. Without all of those, we could not be reaching the lost for Jesus Christ!

Please feel free to share this with others you think would be encouraged by it!

all for Jesus,

Mark (and family)
