Gary's Neighbor

One of the local ministers, Gary, who helped put this FX together had a neighbor whom said that "Satan is my god, so don't try to get me to come to your church!" Gary didn't approach his neighbor very often after that because he was sorta scared of him.

This week, the neighbor came over to Gary's house and asked if he was involved in what was going on down at the school. Gary said that he was and asked him to come. When Gary picked him up the last night of FX, his neighbor was very hesitant to come, but did anyway.

I have two minutes during a video before the water coffin to collect two girls and two men to help us. I couldn't find any men that were right for the part anywhere! I saw Kim and recruited her to get two men to help us with the water coffin. She, unknowingly, picked Gary's neighbor. Gary thinks that his neighbor really stayed and listened to the message because he helped out onstage.

At the end of the night, Gary's neighbor told him that he was saved. He also told Gary that he would be at his church Sunday! Now, Jesus Christ is his God!

I read Brock's post about the 21 day fast. I remember his testimony from SuperWow 06. I'll never forget how he said he believed God placed him in the saw mill because it was so loud in there and he had to use earplugs. The earplugs "shut out" the sounds of life so God had his full attention. God had his full attention just so he could touch folks like Gary's neighbor. This is why you guys do what you do.

Thanks for all you do for all of us!
