Where?
"Outside the station in Woking town centre
When?
Friday nights 10pm -12 midnight.
What?
Outside Light is hitting the streets with the Gospel of our Precious Lord Jesus Christ.
Who?
Mid March of 2010 a new team was formed.
What an encouragement it has been to join together with like-minded people spreading the good news of Jesus late at night.
Why?
We are taking the gospel to where the people are - and on a Friday night they are in Woking around the bars and the clubs.
How?
UNITY, BOLDNESS, GOD'S POWER is the key.
It's simple, all you need is a table, sweets, bottles of water, tea in a flask, gospel booklets and a team with a willingness to listen, talk and pray. AND GOD with us. Immanuel.
Results
So far in two weeks we have talked and been friendly to loads of people, given out lots of tea and sweets, shared our faith, prayed with people, returned a potted tree to its owner and listened to a rendition of the best guitarists in the sixties and seventies performed by Dave on air guitar after he took a break from his night out to educate us in the art of guitar playing. We've also met up (as a direct result) with some who are homeless, showing them they're treasured and as much loved by our precious Jesus as we are.
It's a buzz to be out there, most of the time friendly and extremely fulfilling. This is where the church of Jesus should be, on the streets, outside the building, getting involved.
This is where true fellowship and growth happen.
We are going forward together. WATCH THIS SPACE.
Want to see action? Want to see Jesus at work - really at work - not just words from the Bible but the Bible coming to life? Come along and be a part of it. Email me at philhazelden@hotmail.co.uk - we'd love to welcome you along.
