go missions las vegas 2008 (3)

check out my previous posts before reading this if you havent. :)

so, monday. after breakfast, we did graffiti abatement, where we went with some workers from the city and they got us to paint over graffiti that people had tagged over all these cement walls. we got to wear these really cool white marshmallow like suits to keep some of the paint off of us, but the paint was still able to seap through.

us in action

later that day after lunch, we did free prayer on fremont street, which used to be the old strip. it was really cool there, they have the worlds biggest big screen in the world. i have a video of it playing too. annie was my partner for this again and we had a lot of fun together. we talked to a lot of people and got into it a lot. free prayer was probably my favorist part of the trip. fremont wasnt overly busy so it was a bit easier for people to hear us which was nice. here the video, its not the best quality in the world but you get the point.

heres a picture of tiff (one of the leaders from ywam) holding the free prayer sign.

later that night we did 2x2's and we could do whatever we wanted in order to talk to people. me and annie decided to do free prayer because we really liked doing that. it was a bit harder because we didnt have a big sign or a cross to use as a prop. we did it on fremont again, and we had a lot of fun. we asked pretty much everyone we could.

heres also a picture of us eating at the shelter, where we usually ate if we didnt go out to a restaurant. eating at the shelter was dificult at times, seeing all these homeless hungry people that would let us all butt them in line. it was especially hard seeing all the little boys and girls there too.

i ll probably be able to finish up the whole trip in 2 more posts !! stay tuned--grand canyon :O
