Following the retreat, Paul Grey one of the guest speakers, invited the young people to join him on outreach in Diepsloot. I knew many of the youth would be quite intimidated by this , but I was thrilled when 9 youngsters showed up.
The results were awesome as the learners overcame their initial shyness to initialize conversations, pray for people and see God working through them.
Two girls aged 16 and 14 prayed for one lady with a bad leg and she testified that the pain left her when they prayed.
Another boy went with a team and met a drunk man. The man could not believe that God loved him due to his present circumstances, but the team kept on loving him and encouraging him. Eventually the man started crying and said, "Well I really love you guys!" Love really started to working his heart and he proceeded to pray with the team. It was a wonderful testimony to the boy of how outreach is all about love.
As you can see from the picture below, (missing Robert who was still out) all the young people experienced a wonderful time and will be back for more!
