Since the pandemic struck India, all our physical gospel preaching has stopped. We switched to an online gospel meeting which has been going on every alternate Friday via Zoom. For this, I have the blessing to coordinate in making all the practical arrangements in assigning the host, hymns and the singers, testimony sharing, and the gospel preacher. Though online, still it is a gospel meeting and I have been doing my best in the responsibility allotted to me.
Last Saturday in our brothers' fellowship we decided to preach the gospel openly in the shopping complex nearby. It was our first physical going out after the lockdown. As we went and met people on the streets, the heart of the people are still open. Within a span of one hour, we were about to meet a good number of people and preach the gospel to them too.
Personally, I have not been preaching the gospel face to face. This was my recovery from preaching the gospel face to face. I was glad that I could exercise to preach the gospel to at least three people. After a long gap, I could flow out the gospel to strangers and sinners again!
One encouraging thing was, we also met a Christian brother whom we met during our gospel preaching. He was so glad that we could meet him. In fact, when I started preaching the gospel to him, he immediately confessed that he is also a Christian. Then we had a sweet time of fellowship in the open area outside a bank where he came for his banking work. He was so happy that we met him and told us he would love to visit us someday. He lives in a locality nearby with his family and also has some other family who use to meet with him for prayer and fellowship.
Today evening when I called him up he was so happy to converse over the phone and proposed to come and meet with the church this coming Lord's day and also invited us to visit him next weekend. I believe it is for these seeking believers that the Lord burdened us to go out and preach the gospel.
May all these ones who heard the gospel be saved and the brother become a remainig fruit for the church in Gurugram!
