Could We Love 10,000 People In 30 Days?

A thought dawned on me last week...and quickly became a prayer. Once again, God has opened up doors for astronomical impact for our growing ClearView team from October 4 to November 4. This past Saturday, ClearView had a major presence at New Albany's Oktoberfest. Several thousand people attended this event and most came through our booth or were directly affected by our service. On October 15, we will be ministering to children and families by giving out free glow-in-the-dark toys and candy at Gahanna's Creepside event. Over 2,500 children are expected at this event. On October 27, we're serving as a sponsor for the Main Event (see previous blog post), where 15,000 are expected to attend. Finally, on Nov.4th, we'll be serving free Caribou Coffee to thousands of voters at the Gahanna YMCA polling station.

Each of these opportunities present great opportunities to tell people about ClearView and invite them to one of our Sunday gatherings. We could easily have the opportunity to directly touch 10,000 people in this 30 day period! Please pray with us that God would use us as a loving reflection of Jesus, help us plant seeds of Jesus' love and grace, and find people to round out our launch team. This 30-day period of time is absolutely crucial for us to touch many lives before winter hits and people hibernate until Spring.
