I will pray that you'll have boldness to invite your friend and that she will respond. Sounds like a great outreach. Hey Briana,

Aware of the Commission Christ gave to us as His disciples, I want to never lose sight of it and am grateful to be ever provoked in this calling. There are so many other daily distractions and needs that can quickly crowd out this call God has given us (and truly, a privilege, too...to be apart of HIS work) that I am grateful for your oft repeated encouragements to "win the lost". There is an opp. to invite a neighbor to a game night our church is hosting tomorrow pm for the ladies. I want to invite her and haven't taken the opportunity yet. I know you'll pray if I ask you to that I would faithfullly follow through w/ an invitation and also that this woman would come and encounter God in some way by being among those who love Him.

I am really encouraged by your post today, at my new job I have had numerous opportunities to talk about Christ , and I have to say I have not taken full advantage of things yet, since I don't know the people that well yet. I think though as you said, the simplicity of inviting someone to church is a great way for them to experience the power of Christ and to see Him at work. Not to be negligent of preaching the gospel to the unsaved people that we come in contact with each and every day but inviting them to church is a very non threatening way to share with them. I want to be more diligent about that in my new mission field! I am so very thankful for you and for your prayers Mark, keep em' coming! Blessings Ron Reffett Hey Mark,
