It was a "blast"!
A good time was had by all at the Firestone Fireworks Outreach last Saturday. We hung out at the Adams' house and had pizza, then walked to the park to share the good news of Jesus with the people at the festival. At least 40 people heard the Gospel through our efforts. No one that we know of was saved, but perhaps a seed of truth was planted that will someday result in salvation. We do know that we can "always give (ourselves) fully to the work of the Lord, because (we) know that (our) "labor in the Lord is not in vain" -- 1 Corinthians 15:58.
After walking back to the Adams' for rest and refreshments, we walked (notice the walking theme) to the fireworks. Some played catch with anything they could find, while others sat and talked. The fireworks were great, especially the big "ka-booms" at the end.
Lord willing we'll do it again next year. In the meantime, let us not be "ashamed of the Gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation for everyone" (Romans 1:16).

Actually, one woman that my group (myself, emily, and tylesha) talked to professed her salvation. Yes, that was a fun time and I look forward to next year. It just makes you feel good when you witness.
P.S. Catch is more fun that way!...

Thanks, Elizabeth! It does feel good to witness.
