Default update on my gym/ ministry

Well we are coming up on a year in two months. My gym itself has not been overly embraced by the masses. HOWEVER, those that do come ( 29 members) all seem to really enjoy it. But one young man in particular has touched me deeply without even trying. His name is Pedro. He is a 16 y/o kid who comes from a family of alcoho0lics and drug users. Pedro is not a drinker or drug user. He is totally into fitness. But recently i have noticed him in the lounge reading the bible late into the evening. One night I asked him why he stays there and reads. He replied that the bible isn't exactly used in his house and here he can read it and let it sink in. We spoke for several hours that night and he fianally asked me, what brought you to god. I told him my story and then I said that the first verse That I read, the night I asked GOD to take control of my life, was psalms 27:14 Wait on the LORD. Be of good courage and he shall strengthen your heart. wait on the LORD; I say.. Well he did it right there and then. He gave himself to the lord. Wow was that great. My mission was to show the way if even to just one. Now I want to show the world. thanks for your time.

I'm glad to hear that you're having an impact in doing this. It may just start snowballing from here on. We'll keep you in prayer.
