This report comes from team leader Lucy in Boise, Idaho:
We trust that God uses this apostolate to draw men to Himself. So, thank you again for your prayers for the Boise Catholic street evangelization effort.
A tall, Catholic father and his grade-school-aged son came to the table as we were setting up. The father told us that his other son and this boy had picked up Rosaries from us some time ago. Since then, the boys “have demanded” to pray it every day. The father was very proud of his son and thankful to us for being in the public square. The boy was, naturally, embarrassed by our praise. But, upon prompting from the evangelist, he accepted another Rosary and pamphlet “to give to a friend”. Come, Holy Spirit, strengthen all Catholic families and unite in faith.
A man and woman walked by. In response to our offer of a free Rosary, the woman yelled, “No, I don’t want my children molested.” Neither do we. And that’s why, of all children’s activities in our community, Catholic activities are by far the safest for children.
God granted us relatively cooler weather last week, so lots of people were outside. (Thank you, God!) The two evangelists gave away 20-25 Rosaries and its pamphlet, a Divine Mercy prayer card, and a Good News/kerygma pamphlet.
Praised be Jesus Christ!
