Indianapolis newspapers said that there were over 140,000
people in town for the Superbowl. Between Friday night and Sunday night I
believe that I saw each one of them. Some maybe twice. The city had
suspended the open container laws (alcohol and beer drinking in public).
I think everyone I saw had a bottle of beer in their hand. One girl was
toting a half full bottle of whiskey. The streets were jammed packed
full of people. It reminded me of Mardi Gras where every other person is
half or fully drunk. At times the streets were so packed nobody moved.
That was just on Friday night. It drizzled all day Saturday, but we were
out on the streets for eight hours despite the rain. Sunday after
attending church service we were back on the streets again. This time
the weather was cool but
dry. We moved as
close to the stadium as possible. The brothers I traveled with were bold for Christ. We passed out hundreds of tracts.
On
this trip, five people repented of their sins and turned to Christ.
Friday night a mother and daughter, Saturday a woman and a man, and
Sunday a young man who was a vender around the stadium. As I was
praying with the vender, he shouted out to God, "Thank you Lord for
sending this man to me at this time!"
We left just before the game actually started and headed home. Thank you for your support and prayers.
