BootCamp: Friday School Blitz
Posted by: HelpSaveSam
400 Boot Campers were bused to various schools around St. Pete today in order to invite High Schoolers to the Back to School Bash at South Staub Park.
I sat in my seat on bus #5 anticipating the outreach. On the way to our school, Boot Campers were asked to testifiy of the Power of God in their lives. Several spoke of their deliverence and how much they've grown in God. Some were addicted to Cocaine and other drugs and now they are preaching the Gospel. The testimonies were full of life, power, and annointing. Many others, like myself, spoke on boldness. Some of the comments made were: "Don't let the devil hold you back." "Look at me, I was always too shy to stand up and speak to others, but when the Holy Ghost calls, it is worth every sacrifice to obey." "Opposite of fear is love." "Don't be afraid to pray for someone or baptise them tonight." "I especially want to encourage the girls. You can do something for God. You are a voice. We are all custom made. God made you to be you for a specific purpose.Your ministry will fit you as if it is a custom made suit." "In your face devil."
We also sang and prayed over the cards that we were about to pass out. The Holy Ghost moved in the bus and imparted boldness to everyone. Finally, it was time. School was out and we had permission to stand on the sidewalks in front of the school and pass out invitations. "We are having a Back to School Bash tonight. We will be giving away laptops, IPODS, cash, and food. We have a live band, and you will have a chance to be a part of Freek Factor and win prizes. We will see you there tonight."
There were many positive responses. "Yeah, I heard about this on TV! I'll take some cards and pass them out at the mall." " I'll be there; I'm going to win me a laptop." " Yeah, I'll eat a worm for an IPOD." "Hey, What's with this? How did you get the money to do all this?"
To answer that question, "We are with the Life Center. Hundreds of churches and individuals from around the country donated the funds for this event." You can be a part of reaching the lost in this aggressive movement. Simply log on to www.myhouseofprayer.com for more information.
Toward the end of our outreach, the devil showed up in the form of irrate security guards. " We told you to stay on the sidewalk, you cut through the school and are holding up my traffic! I've got to protect these kids. Stand back!"
In reality we did not cut through the campus. About 5 guys from our bus ran the perimeter of the school property in order to reach students leaving from the back of the school. Some students had carried cards back inside and had begun to pass them out to their friends. Regardless of the truth, and out of respect for the security guards, we backed up and headed to the bus. Our misson was complete; our bus alone had reached several hundred people.
Hundreds are expected to show up at tonight's Back to School Bash. Modern, Rock, and Contempary Christian music will be performed by Down To Earth, a youthful apostolic band. Freak Factor will draw the nerve out of many, and possibly the food from some onlookers. More than all of this, the Power of God will deliver, Baptisms in Jesus name will take place, and many will be filled with the Holy Ghost. Lost souls will find a stable way of living tonight. Generations will be effected.
Before all of this can happen, Boot Campers will meet in the conference room for the Tag-In. Bro. Shelly Hendricks will be coaching us on how to effectively pray with the lost and lead them to an upper room experience.
