This Friday our team took the streets for our annual Halloween outreach. We welcomed back veterans of our team and we packed 460 bags of candy and food to hand out on the streets of Hollywood. Our team came together in amazing ways to get this done and we were able to bless many homeless and tourists alike. Below are some of the requests from this week:
1 John 5:14-15
And this is the confidence, which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests, which we have asked from Him.
