Glenwood Springs, Colorado … The Rocky Mountain Conference Literature Ministry team joined Glenwood Springs church members as they visited people living near the church the weekend of February 22. The group was able to register 10 people for upcoming cooking classes and Bible studies, and they prayed with more than 30 people, leaving GLOW (Giving Light to Our World) tracts at more than 200 homes. God blessed the team’s community visit.
Here’s a sample of one exchange:
“Hi, my name’s Matt and I’m from the church down the street.” Matt Hasty smiled and pointed towards the church, “We’re out in the neighborhood today collecting prayer requests. Is there anything you would like to add to our prayer chain?”
The woman at the door paused and looked surprised. “Wow! I was just praying for my daughter’s salvation when you knocked on my door. Please add my daughter to your prayer list.” It was a heavy burden on her heart, and she felt blessed to have others share her burden.
Matt wrote down her daughter’s name. “May we pray for your daughter right now?” he asked.
“I would like that,” the woman replied, bowing her head as Matt prayed for her daughter. When the prayer ended, Matt invited the woman to the upcoming healthy cooking class and left her with a few GLOW tracts, making sure to leave her with extras to share with her daughter.
Matt Hasty, who coordinates the RMC Literature Ministry, commented about this experience. “What a blessing it was that God brought Matt at the right time to be this woman’s prayer partner. Matthew 18:20 says, ‘For where two or three are gathered together in my name, I am there in the midst of them,’” he said.
