(Guest post by Grace--see two previous posts!)
"One of the major moments that happened while we were still in Italy was when we went into the town of Isola (where we were staying) for an outreach to students. This particular day thousands of students from across Italy were coming to the local shrine to have their pens blessed so that they would be able to pass their major exams. Our group decided this would be an amazing opportunity to share the Gospel.
"So we split up into threes and off we went into town—and into a downpour! It was a blessing in disguise. The rain forced everyone under cover and then it was quite easy to talk to students. One conversation I’ll never forget.
"Jule was a senior in high school and didn’t believe in God because he couldn’t believe there was one higher person above everyone else. During the conversation the question was asked, 'If there was one God over all who created you out of love, what would you do?' Jule responded, 'I would believe.' So we proceeded to tell him there was God above all and that He loved Jule very much. I watched as Jule was moved to tears by this statement. Unfortunately we were unable to finish this conversation but I pray others come along side him to help grow the seed that has been planted."
If you've got a minute, pray for Jule right now, that the seed planted gets a heavenly downpour, takes root and grows, and that Jule find his way to true faith.
