The City of Boston wants Open Air Campaigners to SHARE JESUS so much that they arranged for the New England Patriots to have a parade just so over a million people could come take gospel literature from us!!!
Isn’t that nice of the Mayor and the Pats???
Seriously, if you want to be a “fisher of men,” (), then we need to go to where the people are. There were A LOT of people at the Patriots Parade!!!
My team was able to give away between 4-5 thousand gospel tracts. Four to Five THOUSAND! That’s a whole lot!!!!
Imagine if only 1% gets read! I believe , and I believe .
Here’s a “Divine Appointment.” On our “sardine-can” ride into the city, I started a conversation with a very nice Korean young man. I gave him a Trillion Dollar Bill with a gospel message on it and asked him what he’d do with a trillion dollars. Then I asked him if he knew the most costly present ever purchased. I told him it was that God Himself purchased the opportunity for us to have our sins forgiven and it cost Him His only Son, Jesus.
He told me that I sounded like him family and that he grew up in a Christian family, but doesn’t believe anything now.
We had a friendly conversation where I gave him some points to consider and told him there are a ton of people cramming into Boston today, and it’s no accident that he and I were put together on the train. He agreed with me and said he’d think about it.
Sadly, I didn’t get his name, but please pray for that nice man. I praise God for Divine Appointments like that. I wouldn’t be surprised if his Christian family has been praying for a long time that he’d run into someone to share Christ with him!
Here are some photos from this fantastic, frigid, and fruitful day!

Hey, if you want an easy way to reach people in your area, why not go out with some other Christians and hand out gospel tracts? If there’s a parade, or a fair, or any event where people gather, go out there and hand out gospel literature. People do take them and God does use them to change lives!
I used to think that gospel tracts were corny and ineffective and something I just didn’t want to use. I’ve obviously changed my mind about this and now find them a very valuable tool!
If you’re not sure about gospel tracts, if they work, or how to use them, or where to get them, I wrote up a helpful overview and you can read that at: http://Luke-15.org/tracts/.
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, and who will pray!
all for Jesus,
Mark (and family)
P.S. My prediction for Superbowl 50, February 7, 2016, is as follows:
New England Patriots – 28, Green Bay Packers – 20. Go Pats!!! 🙂
