Thank you Lord for all you did tonight in Salem. I know you love this town and there is not one soul that you would see perish, but you are calling them to repentance and a new life in you. Selah….
After praying and reading Jeremiah 3:22: “Return, faithless people; I will cure you of backsliding.” “Yes, we will come to you, for you are the LORD our God” I wasn’t sure why I was lead to read this but…..
I set out for the streets….praying for every step to be lead of The Lord, I came across a woman who grew up in the same church as I did before The Lord called my father to ministry. I asked her if she ever thought about the Word she heard as a child. She said “All the time.” She told me she was a great-grandmother now and I told her about Jeremiah 3:22. I talked to her intently and told her she had to come back to Jesus so her grandchildren and great grandchildren would come to know Jesus is real and they too would be saved. I sang for her and a neighbor heard me and asked me to sing for her. I did and she began to cry.
After meeting up with Bill Dawkins, we ministered to so many together and separately…groups of 7, groups of 8, a group of children and individuals both African American and White (just what I prayed for for Soul Saving Center) We asked if we could pray for them all said yes. A group of children came to The Lord and also the woman who went and brought them to me….they all became born again Believers tonight.
After ministering to one group of people in song and the Word, a guy there told us he was not Christian but Bill Dawkins began to share the word with him and i looked over my shoulder as I was with the group of children and the guy was helping Bill pass out YOLO tracts! God is so Amazing!!!
Further down Broadway a young girl said she used to be a Christian….another backslider….I couldn’t tell her enough about how much God loved her! How He never left her! She gave her heart back to Jesus on Broadway! Praise our God! He is mighty to save!
No resistance to the gospel….high, drunk or just plain lost….People here want hope! They want peace and Jesus said he would do the drawing if we lift him up!
Please pray for everyone who encounters the gospel that no soul is lost!

All I can say is my God is Awesome!!!!
Thank you All for your prayers for SSC! God hears!!
Praying while driving throughout Salem trying to cover all the territory I could cover….feeling like, “it’s only me”.
And starting to feel small…I went back to SSC to pray. I had been feeling very small and insignificant…but then the Word kicked in….all of the scriptures:
Deuteronomy 32:30 How should one chase a thousand, And two put ten thousand to flight, Except their Rock had sold them, And Jehovah had delivered them up?
Psalm 18:29 For by thee I run upon a troop; And by my God do I leap over a wall.
Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ[a] who strengthens me.
This is the scripture some guy on the street quoted to me….and urged me to keep on praying and preaching to them!
That was amazing but that’s not all of it!!!!
I was singing to a huge group of men and women and giving them the gospel and a group of children around 10-13 children gathered around. One had been hurt and I asked if I could pray for her. She said yes and then I asked them if they would like to sing with me…
We sang “Yes, Jesus Loves Me”. And then one of them said “Do you know There Is Power in the Name of Jesus?” So there we are on Broadway between Ninth St. And Johnson St. …singing Break every chain!!!! I taught it to most of them and they caught on fast! People started gathering around us! I even taught them how to put that growl in their voice when they sang “Break!”
So afterwards I asked them if they wanted to start a choir? They were so excited!!! “YES!!!” So next Saturday at 6pm. We are meeting @ SSC!
Soul Saving Center has a choir!!!
I had begun to ask God how do I reach these people? There are so many…..it’s just me…
What did I learn?!? This is His Work!!! I obeyed His call on my life and He’s making me, molding me and teaching me that it’s not by might, nor by power but by my Spirit saith The Lord of Host!!!
He’s got a plan….it’s unfolding little by little….this is a true walk of faith.
I’m more than excited!!!
And just wait until I report how God supplied all our needs according to. His riches in glory!!! Can’t wait!!!
Up early this morning reflecting on the faces of those who received tracts, those who declined, those who asked for prayer, the one who asked Jesus into his heart…
Started out at SSC praying and praising God for everything He would do in the streets, for SSC and through this church!
Prayer Walking:
Olive St is now very active with young people hanging out everywhere. Many tracts given out. People reminded how much God wants to “Get all up in their personal lives… He created them with the need for Him and when they try to fill that space with anything besides Him, they are never satisfied! What they are looking for is Jesus”.
So many people know my Dad, he really paved the way for me to connect with people in the streets! (Another reason he is my hero)
Union St and Magnolia Sts: young children practicing dancing… Talked to them to find out how much they knew about Jesus…. They knew about Jesus and said they asked Him into their hearts… Talked to them about always praying about everything and God has great plans ahead for them.
Another group of children: sang for them and they were surprised! Most knew about Jesus, gave them a talk about Running to God about everything!
The Horseshoe tournament: people gathered there and some looked as if one more drink or drug could be their last…. Gave many tracts out, someone needed prayer and all were receptive to the gospel…
To those who we met during the prayer walk who refused to accept or listen, God said to say “Jesus is still Lord of all, and you will face Him one day… Meet Him in peace, don’t die without Jesus!”.
West Side: people everywhere! Gave the gospel to a young man while he rolled his joint, God made him stop and listen!
Meant a young man I had witnessed to before, he said, “I feel better when I see you!”. He was ready to give his heart to Jesus and we lead him to Jesus! (Angels rejoiced in the Westside!)
Carpenter Sts and surrounding areas: Have the gospel to many sitting on their porches and ran out of tracts!
Back out today: it’s Sunday… Gotta take church to them…
Pray for the people in this town…. Young people staring back at me with hazy eyes deeply disturbs me! The devil cannot have them!
There is power in the name of Jesus to break every chain!
This evening as I went about passing out tracts, singing to groups of people (when I felt The Lord leading me) and talking to people about Jesus; I encountered some people who told me they were not Christian, some people who were high and a great number of young girls whose image consciousness made them a little more resistant than they would had it been a smaller group…so The Lord had me sing….they quieted down and listened.
I encountered that same glassy hazy eyed look from some people…I had to rebuke the devil in Jesus Name so they could hear me. Sometimes I felt resistance, Sometimes I felt acceptance of the gospel. It really became clear to me although I already knew….this is a WAR!
The devil is defeated, he’s defeated and Jesus is the Victor!!!
God used “Nothing But the Blood of Jesus” to minister to one group. I didn’t know I was going to sing that until it came out.
Someone got shot on another street while I was out there.
But after sharing the gospel with a group of men, I turned to continue walking and one of the young men yelled out to me, “thank you for caring!” I turned around and put my hand over my heart and said, “I love you and God loves you!”
I went back to the church to pray to thank The Lord for everything He is doing!
Pray for Walnut St.
