II Corinthians 2:14, “Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.”
My wife and I want to thank you all for praying for us and for the financial help that has been given. We are also thankful for the two Bible giveaways that we were able to conduct this month. Though the towns were small and the weather was rough, we still went out and enjoyed the events.
The first town was Spearville, Kansas. After getting permission from the chief of police and the restaurant owner, we set up our canopy tent in spite of the strong winds. After about 35 minutes, we moved to a nearby truck stop, where the winds were still blowing and the dust was flying, but there was a little more traffic. Eventually, a lady named Cindy pulled up wanting a Bible. After hearing about her stillborn child and how she had once been bitter toward God, I shared the Gospel message with Cindy, and she got saved. Shortly after that, a man named John pulled up to pump gas, and with the nozzle still in his tank, he left the car and came over to get a Bible. He was on his way to a wedding with his girlfriend and mentioned how he had just told her the other day that they needed God in their relationship. We exchanged numbers so I could reach out later to share the Gospel with him since he was unsure of going to Heaven. We left the town thankful for the 15 Bibles that were given out and for the one who got saved. Later that night, I received a voice message from a man named Gary. He was driving by in his semi-truck when he saw two of our ladies holding up signs advertising free Bibles. He got a Bible and went on his way. After leaving the site, he pulled over, read the tract, and accepted Christ along the side of the road. Praise God!!
A week later, we went to Minneola, Kansas, and were rained on all afternoon. Nevertheless, we were able to give away 14 Bibles, and a lady named Jessica received Christ as her Saviour.
We praise the Lord for these opportunities and for 6 others who were won to Christ while we were out knocking doors during October. One of these was a man named Chad, who lived in a middle-class neighborhood and trusted Christ in his garage. While following up on him, he told me that he shared the tract with his wife, and she, too, had prayed to receive Christ. What a blessing.
Praise the Lord for the opportunity God has given us to be His servants. We are thankful for everyone of you who support us and pray for us regularly.
Sincerely,
Lawrence Williams
