In March, 2008, a local high school teacher asked if Adam and I would be willing to work with students to start a S.W.A.T (Students With A Testimony) Club during lunchtime. Of course we were. We picked our date and started a signup sheet. On the day before our meeting we got the total (20) and ordered five pizzas (40 pieces). We were set. The next day we picked up the pizzas and headed to school. When we arrived we found out that 60 students were now planning to attend. We called Dominos and ordered more pizza. There were 57 students that attended that first meeting.
Since then we have faced opposition from other teachers. We have had to find a new place to meet. We are no longer allowed to announce it to remind the students. We average close to 40 students each week.
Just last week an Asian student (“Kim”), whose family is Buddhist, received Christ as her Saviour. A friend “Mary” invited her to come. “Mary” went to the altar to pray after the lesson and “Kim” asked what she prayed about as they were heading back to school. “Mary” said that she prayed for “Kim’s” salvation. “Kim” then asked to go back with tears on her face. The angels were rejoicing that day!
