Chicago Summer 2010

I have not had too much activity recently that I have put up on here. I figure that I would share my newest plans with you all. Please keep me in prayer as I do this, I really need it.

This coming summer I will be living in Chicago homeless.........



Yep you heard that right living in Chicago, IL as a homeless man. I will have nothing with me but an old raggedy backpack and beat up old guitar. My plan is to preach and talk to the homeless. Play worship in the park for all to hear and play on the streets for pocket change.

So often we minister to the homeless without truly knowing and feeling their situation. "You don't know a man until you walk a mile in his shoes" or something like that. So I figure why not try it out for a little bit?

I will be dropping money and unnecessary ID's with the YWAM base downtown, so that I have an out if it gets to be too much.

Christ called us to go and take nothing and that is exactly what I will be doing.

Please keep me in prayer through this time.
