Other Stories from the Streets of Camden

Today in the square in front of Kings Cross Station, Charles, Alex, a member of KCBC, & I all spoke with people who are in need of our prayers. Alex spoke for some time with a new student at the U of London who is from from Belgium, who we are certain God put in his path. Like Alex, she is involved in youth ministry. In addition, she is looking for a church to attend while in school. She & Alex exchanged contact information. Alex shared with her the Luke 7 story of Jesus & the woman who washed his feet at the religious leaders home. What she liked best about that story was that Jesus sees the hearts of people & not the superficial exterior we tend to look for. Please pray for her successful transition to school life here, her being led to the appropriate church, hopefully KCBC, and the development of a cooperative and productive collaboration between her and Alex' youth ministry activities.

Paul is a building contractor professional who commutes to London from the southeast shore of England. He & I spoke for over an hour about his life and activities, and how, although considering himself an Anglican Church member, has not attended church in many, many years. I shared with him the story of the four soils from Mark 4, and asked him to choose which of the four soils he would categorize his spiritual life to be. He chose the second, or the thin soil in which the seed which sprouted quickly soon withered & died because of shallow roots. Please pray for Paul, that he be convicted of the need for his heart to become the fertile soil where the Word can grow, multiply and bear fruit. He needs to not only recognize Christ as his savior, but accept him as his Lord.
