Our north Concord team had the opportunity to speak with Kelly and Matt. Kelly is a believer in Christ and wanted the team to pray for Matt's health. Matt suffered a traumatic injury awhile back, and still has large lacerations with deep tissue exposure on his stomach area. Matt is not a believer, but was open to praying with us. Please pray for Matt's salvation, and for healing for his wounds.

Our central Concord team had the opportunity to speak with Matt again (not shown). In our last prayer update, we asked for prayer that Matt would be open to participating in a future Bible study with us; and praise the Lord, he told us today that he is willing to participate during our next outreach! We have known Matt for a couple of years, and have been increasingly encouraged by the progress we've seen in our interactions with him. We believe the Lord has used these interactions to soften Matt's heart toward the gospel, and we would really like to dive deeper into God's word with him. Please pray with us that this Bible Study with Matt occurs during our next outreach!

950+ Blessing Bags!
We are amazed and so thankful for everyone who supported our Blessing Bag donation drive! With the help of some wonderful volunteers, we were able to fill over 950 blessing bags. Blessing Bags help create a bridge for us to enter into deeper gospel conversations with the homeless. This potentially gives us 950+ gospel-sharing opportunities! Praise God, and may He be glorified in these efforts!

Our Vallejo team had the opportunity to share the gospel with Melissa. She had been wearing very little, so the team provided her with fresh clothing, and one of our volunteers gave her the sweatshirt that he had been wearing. Melissa said she struggles with drug addiction, and she really wants her children back in her life. She added that her friend, Rosa, had stepped on a nail and injured her foot, so the team provided medical supplies for Rosa. As part of our time together, we prayed with her. Please pray with us for Melissa's drug addiction struggles, for reunification with her children, and for her salvation. Please also pray for healing and salvation for Rosa.

We are very encouraged and thankful for the generosity of those who have donated this past month toward our blessing bag efforts! All of these supplies will be used to create blessing bags for our teams that will be sent out during our upcoming outreaches. Thank you all so very much!

We want to highlight the impact blessing bags have as part of our ministry! Sometimes, individuals are not willing to engage in discussion. Even though 'material items' are not the primary focus of our outreach and ministry, blessing bags can build bridges so that gospel conversations can occur!

Our central Concord team had the opportunity to speak with Charles. At first, Charles did not want to talk with us, but after we offered him a blessing bag and clothing, he opened up to conversation. Charles believes the gospel to be true, but added that he does not trust people due to hypocrisy and some of his past experiences. We offered to pray with him, and he was open to that. Please pray with us that the Lord would soften Charles' heart and that we would have the opportunity to share the gospel with him during a future outreach.

Our Vallejo team visited two different encampments during this outreach, and were really encouraged by the similar encounters that took place at both locations! We shared the gospel, prayed and distributed blessing bags. As we were packing up and heading back to our truck, we were followed by men at both sites, who desired to have lengthier conversations with us!

After our outreach at the first encampment, a gentleman named Jay approached us and engaged in some deeper discussion. We were able to have a heart-to-heart conversation with him, and it gave us the opportunity to share the gospel with him on a deeper level.

After the outreach at the second encampment, we were approached by a gentleman named John. He was very appreciative of the food and coffee, and those offerings helped give us the opportunity to share the gospel with him as well!

It is really sweet to see individuals who feel compelled to approach us and participate in deeper discussions! The Lord was so kind to give our Vallejo team this kind of encouragement! Please pray with us that the Lord would stir Jay and John's hearts and that they would desire to learn more and trust in the Lord for salvation.

Our north Concord team had the opportunity to speak with John (pictured). John had received one of our Bibles a few weeks ago, but felt conviction after being asked how much he had read. Although John seems a bit resistant toward deeper spiritual discussions, we were able to present the gospel with him again. He was open to having us pray for him. Please pray with us that John's conviction leads him to read his Bible, and that the Lord softens his heart to having deeper gospel conversations.
