The following report comes to us from team leader Lucy in Boise, ID:
It was cold, snowy, and blowy last week. So, there was not much foot traffic. However, the two evangelists still gave away about 10 Rosaries and its pamphlet, as well as 1 kerygma.
A young couple approached the table led by the man. He said he knew all about the Rosary. The woman seemed reluctant but chose a Rosary anyway. When asked, she admitted that she was raised Catholic but did not now attend Mass. Both declined when offered a map to area parishes. Then, when Chuck reminded them of the many graces of the Eucharist, they merely smiled and moved on. Mother Mary, pray for them.
A young woman came back to the table after initially declining a Rosary. She had no idea what the Rosary was all about. Chuck began describing the Rosary devotion. Lucy then asked her if she was a Christian. She was not, but she accepted a Good News/kerygma pamphlet. Pray for her conversion.
Praised be Jesus Christ!
