A Volunteer's Perspective of Don't Walk By
Jillian has been faithfully serving with our Beautiful One outreach for over a year now and when she heard about Don't Walk By, she was very eager to sign up. Now, she's just completed her first ever Don't Walk By, and we'll let her tell you all about it:
"My first year of Don't Walk By was awesome! They needed volunteers in the transportation department, so my job was to sit and talk with the guests as they waited for the van to take them to the shelter. I asked one of the men I was waiting with if I could pray with him. He allowed me to and after I finished , he looked up and I could tell he was touched. He said, 'I really felt that!' That's what the Holy Spirit can do in the blink of an eye!" I
would definitely recommend Don't Walk By to others. Getting to sit and talk
with the people is so personal. There are no barriers!"
Jillian was not the only person who noticed the atmosphere
of unity and compassion during the outreach. Another volunteer named Dahee told
us that she was blessed to see so many believers united for the cause of
Christ. She said, "This level of unity was literally a taste of heaven. I
pray that churches in NYC would continue
to mature into oneness as we elevate Christ together." This year we had over 1,000 volunteers unite
to flood the streets with the mercy of God. Hallelujah!
