Meeting God at Kilometer Zero
MAY 30, 2005

 

V iew at Kilometer ZeroIn Plaza del Sol, in the center of Madrid, is the marker for Kilometer Zero of Spain. From that point, the distances are measured on the roads radiating out to all of Spain. It is on that spot that evangelism teams numbering up to 50 participants are leading people to Christ.

Every week a team gathers there at the Prayer and Evangelism Training Center, then go out to preach in the open air, pass out Bibles and evangelistic literature, talk with individuals, and pray with them to accept Christ into their lives. The leader of this ministry, Jacob Bock, shares the following stories of what is happening at Kilometer Zero.

"Ricardo (29) was walking through the plaza 2 weeks ago. Someone gave him a tract. He hung around. Someone else went to him and talked to him about eternity. Before you know it, he was being prayed for. God did a work in his life. He was at church the following Saturday and Sunday. The following Monday he was back in the Plaza with us, passing out literature. He is now part of our team. Last night at the PRAYER AND EVANGELISM TRAINING CENTER Ricardo was there, sweeping and mopping. He said he can hardly believe what has happened. A couple of months ago God was the farthest thing from his mind. He had never been to church in his life. Now he is inviting his family to church.

Man Meeting God at Kilometer ZeroThe Pastor of the International church told me that 6 new people were in his church on Sunday after our Saturday open-air evangelism!! One couple is from the Philippines. We had talked to them 3 months ago on the street. They just now visited his church for the first time.

A young man came running up to me last night... 'Someone just prayed with me to accept Christ!! Do you have a Bible I can give him?' I gave him one, telling him to write a dedication in it to him and get his name and address. He went bouncing away. Twenty minutes later, he came bounding back. 'I prayed with another one!!' I gave him another Bible to give away.

At midnight, after hours of evangelism, we were heading down into the parking ramp. My co-worker Dan turned to me and said, "Wow, it doesn't get much better than this now, does it!"
