December to the 1st week of January maybe the holiday season, but that does not mean that our task of sharing the Gospel will have to also take a break. LWA made sure this did not happen.When a friend of LWA, JM Vergara informed Dennis Mark Aglosolos that an Australian Christian will be coming over during the holidays to do some mission work here in the Philippines and that they are hoping to get some people to join them, Dennis right away signed up his team for the task. The LWA team joined Luke Stewart and JM on their Dec. 28 tracts distribution at the Greenbelt Mall in Makati. The security people of the mall were in constant pursuit of the gang whom they informed had no right to distribute Gospel tracts. Of course we know that there's no such law in the Philippines against what we were doing and so we continued on.
On Jan. 1, it was LWA's turn to invite Luke and JM to join them in an evening Gospel sharing. The LWA team got the ball rolling by doing two open-air preaching sessions at Luneta Park which was at that time filled with literally thousands of people who decided to spend the first day of 2010 outside of their homes. After that, the team went on to Makati to pick-up Luke and company. The group went to the upscale area of Rockwell and did some one-to-one witnessing and distributed bundles of Gospel tracts. After an hour, which was around 1 am already of Jan. 2, the group felt they had more energy left to continue on. And so, they decided to go back to Luneta where thousands of people were still around. We had a great time distributing copies of the Gospel and talking to people about sin, righteousness and judgment. At around 3 am, the team called it a night (or morning, I should say).
We hope to make evening evangelism sessions a monthly activity. It will be great if you can join us there.
