Logan's visit

This past weekend was so awesome. It started on Friday night when Logan, Jose, Kyle, Bobby, and myself headed downtown. This night was different than most nights downtown. Normally the conversations are short and there are many. This night the conversations were long and there were few. First we stopped to visit Gator and Shakey, two guys living in a park. My roommate Mike brought up a wheelchair for me to give to any homeless in need. I'd been praying that I'd find someone who needed it, Shakey had been praying for a new wheelchair with feet support that could fold up so he could hide it in the bushes. Both prayers were answered and Shakey received a new wheelchair and a new Bible. Logan brought his guitar so we worshipped with Shakey and Gator. A man and a women stopped by and started worshipping, and felt the Holy Spirit through music. They started talking about how different they felt. They said "you guys are like shining lights", something supernatural was definately touching them. They asked us what church we belonged to, we said "this is it, welcome". Holy Spirit does a lot more than donuts and coffee. These people left but definately have seen the light. Our team then ministered to Gator and Shakey for over an hour, explaining to them that their life of alcoholism proves that the Holy Spirit isn't working, which is different than what is taught in church. Shakey ended up praying to God to confirm if my words were true or if I was a false profit. I know that the confirmation will come. We then went to State Street and had another conversation that lasted over an hour. We talked to Winton, a Marine. We talked to him for a long time, sharing stories of Pastor Rudy (former Marine) and what has brought him to the Lord. By the time we finished talking to Winton, it was about two AM so we headed home.
