Christian Evangelism - www.repentandturn.com: November 2005

I attended an evangelism bootcamp November 10th-13th, 2005. This was held in Austin, Texas. To read more about the bootcamps, click here. I am posting some of the pics that I took while there. I will post the stories and all the witnessing adventures in another post.

Here I am doing open-air preaching. This is at a crosswalk and next to the University of Texas. The casket was being used by us to draw a crowd, showing that 10 out of 10 of us will die. Do you know if you will go to heaven? Take the test.

Sometimes, we had people drive by and hear us, then they would yell obscenities out their window towards us.

Here we are in class getting ready to get started on the first night. Roughly 90 people were here.

There was a large Veteran's Day Parade in Austin. We went, passed out many gospel tracts and witnessed. Some of our group open-air preached.

Here is one of our gospel tracts after the parade. This was rare. We didn't find many of our tracts thrown on the ground or in the trash.

I just had to get my pic next to the Ten Commandments!

This pic was taken using the night lense...however, this is how the city of Austin, down on 6th street felt like...hell. It is a very wicked city.

John Legg, who is from Austraila, was open-air preaching. He had a little fun with the "we're #1 finger". He was waiving the pointed finger about and said, "we're not here to point fingers, but how will you do on the Day of Judgment", that sort of thing.

This pic was taken after the pedestrian traffic slowed way down! Some of us were passing out tracts and some were open-air preaching to them as they were walking across and waiting for the light to change.
