What do you expect to abound during the inauguration ceremony of a new president of a country? Of course, PEOPLE! And that’s exactly what field the area where the Quirino Grandstand, in the famed Luneta Park is, on June 30, 2010 (estimated crowd: 500,000), as the Philippines witnessed the inauguration of Benigno Aquino III as the 15th president of the Republic.
And where there are people, for the responsible Christian, there are souls to reach for Christ. That was the reason why a team from Living Waters Asia forgot that the day was supposed to be a holiday, a time to rest, but instead trooped early in the morning to the venue of the inauguration to share the Gospel to people. How easy it was to do fishing when the fishes are all around you waiting to be caught. The team’s supply of Gospel tracts were all distributed in a matter of 30 minutes and so, they used their remaining time talking to people about the only message that can bring them to Heaven.
Think of what we, Christians, can do if all of us would just embrace opportunities like this to deliver the Gospel to people. You can be sure that the next time a big crowd like this turns out in one place, LWA will be there. But we hope to also see you there.
