New Mexico Show and Brock's Phone Call

Last night was a first. We were late for a show! It started at 5pm. I didn't know that. In all of the shows we have done, we've never had one to start at 5pm. However, it was still my fault because I should have asked. We strolled in at around 5:30 only to find that everyone is there waiting on us! If you're going to be late, New Mexico is the place to do it. They are so layed back here and sooo nice. Even the guy in charge was cool about it. The only time he told us when it started was on right about the time we got there. It was crazy!

The show went well after the rocky start. There were 350 people in attendence which they were very excited about in this town. The ministers in the area claim that people here don't come out for anything let alone a church function. There were at least 35 people that gave their lives to Christ. It ended up being great!

Later last night, Brock recieved a phone call. He had met a guy on a plane this summer and felt compelled to give him his phone number. Brock even chased him down in the airport to give him the number. The guy called last night and I listened as Brock told him the good news of Jesus Christ. This guy told Brock that he had been getting drunk everyday for the last two weeks and was sick of it. Brock ended the conversation by telling him that they sat together on that plane for a reason and he thought of Brock tonight out of the blue for a reason. Brock said that God was trying to get a hold of him. He also told him that he had a choice to make. Brock said for him to call him back in a couple of days to let him know how everything was going. Please pray for this guy who is a comedian but does not feel like laughing right now. Pray that he will come to know the saving power of Jesus Christ.
