Good Evening Prayer Team –
We were blessed tonight to get to sing and share the Gospel in the public square just outside of Rome Baptist Church, just a couple of blocks away from Italy’s Parliament Building. As the sound of our voices filled the square, people from literally all over the world gathered around to hear our message. They sang along, clapped, and cheered as we sang. The Filipino Congregation at Rome Baptist provided food and drinks for our team before our concert, which we greatly appreciated!
During our concert, Gospel tracts in several languages were provided to our listeners. As soon as we finished singing, all the members of our chorale went out to have Gospel conversations with members of the crowd. Some of us met sculptors, others diplomats, tourists, business people, and shop owners. It was an hour of wonderful conversations about the blessing of knowing Jesus. Please pray for those we were able to reach tonight, that God will work in their lives to draw them close to Him. Also, pray for God to bless the faithful churches and Christians in the Rome area.
As one Filipino Christian, Silvia, we met tonight, told me, “God has opened a wonderful window for the Gospel to spread to the world from Rome.” We are definitely seeing that God is at work here, and we are glad that He invited us to be a small part of His plan to reach people in this beautiful cosmopolitan city.
Pray for us tonight to be able to get packed and sleep for a few hours before we rise early to depart for a packed schedule in Florence. We will be traveling four hours by bus, checking into our hotel, making important connections with our partner churches, and singing a full worship concert for the people of the Florence area.
You are a vital part of our team. God is using your prayers to cover us in His protection and to give us favor with everyone we speak to. Please continue to pray for us. God bless you!
