Thank you for praying for our talk to the residents of Georgia King Village, Newark. For those who hadn't been previously contacted by email , here is the story. Planned Parenthood had been asked to speak at a housing site in Newark. A local pastor objected to their board. Planned Parenthood was 'uninvited'. I was asked to speak. A person 'who asked to remain nameless' threatened our inviter with a protest of our talk. The talk now became an open community meeting.

"I'm a 40 year old man. They've been telling me this (the safe sex message) for all my life. The only way is to abstain"

We went there fully expecting a vocal opposition to a simple discussion of HIV, chastity and the work of Gateway. The pastor who invited Gateway (she is also the director of the housing unit) was to speak after me. She intended to hand out condoms after her talk. This pastor urged me not to mention Planned Parenthood and not to hand out any literature. Since my talk involved HIV and didn't mention Planned Parenthood, I complied, not mentioning Planned Parenthood in my talk on HIV and condom failure. I brought literature packets with me that presented the ministry but also exposed Planned Parenthoods racist beginnings. (Proofs from the library of Congress by our dear friend Akua Furlow) In our telephone conversation concerning Fridays banquet, our latest dear friend, Dr. Alveda King prayed for God's intervention... and He surely did. All praise to Him for the outcome! Planned Parenthood never showed up. The residents that came were vocal about abstaining. I spoke for an hour using PowerPoint, proving every quote with its source. The pastor frequently interrupted to correct me even though the proof studies were visible on the PowerPoint. She then rose to speak. After some vocal responses from the residents, her talk disintegrated into an encouragement of chastity as 'one of the best options'. One resident interrupted her twice saying, "The only option". He stated, "I'm a 40 year old man. They've been telling me this (the safe sex message) for all my life. The only was is to abstain" (Praise God)

Prayer and Praise! Prayer for the success of the October 16th . Stewardship Banquet and for the follow up of commitments made that night

?? Pray for even more men and women to come to Christ through this gospel outreach ministry ?? Pray for our need for male volunteers and female counselors. Next training: November 5, 7, 12, and 14, 2009 at Gateway - Irvington. Call or email us for details. Praise for numerous speaking opportunities since the summer

Not Just Statistics Since January, we’ve seen 966 women, 93 babies known born and 155 women trusting Christ as Savior
