Bus Station Counseling

Sorry it's taken a couple of days to get this update posted. It's been a busy couple of days. But, Tilden, Stephanie, Kristy and I did get to share with our friends at the bus station again this week: now our 8th week of ministry at the CATS station.

It was our warmest night yet - luckily we brought both hot chocolate and lemonade. Both were hits, but I think the Hot Chocolate won, even with the temperature.

We spent a long time talking with Rodney and his daughter Banayah. He had taken her out for the day, bowling and having fun. Rodney works at the station doing some maintenance work. We talked for a long time about what he struggles with, his childhood, his love for his family, for his kids especially, amond many other things.

What was interesting was that just before he left he said, "Wow. I haven't talked to anyone like that in a LONG time."

It's pretty amazing what a cup of lemonade will do to loosen the tongue . . . . or maybe it was something else.

Grace.
