Street Ministry
This past Friday Jonas, Alfonso and I decided that we would once again hit the streets of Kolonia in hopes to share the love of Jesus with Pohnpeian youth. This time we took my skateboard and guitar. Sometimes we have seen youth at the movie theater parking lot with skateboards, but this past Friday night the parking lot was empty. We decided to try Kolonia Elementary School as there are lights at the basketball court and plenty of youth gathered. I got out my skateboard and skated for a while. The youth loved it. One young man came and talked with Alfonso, who ended up leading him in prayer to receive Jesus. I got out my guitar and played some original tunes and was able to use my music to share the gospel of Christ with some other youth.

From Kolonia elementary we headed toward Mabusi and Komwonlaid, where we saw a group of young men gathered by the side of the road. We got out, bought sodas and sat down to talk with them. They were all catholic, but when we asked them if they had asked Jesus Christ into their hearts they said that they had. We asked when. They responded that they had prayed and received Jesus at the Spanish Wall crusade just two days prior. We were then able to follow up with these brand new believers and encourage them in how to walk with Jesus. It was an amazing night of street ministry.
