TREASURE HUNTING IN WINDSOR

Last night 11 of us from The BIG Year (a discipleship course run by River Church Maidenhead) were out on the streets of Windsor. We had an amazing time and had significant meetings with 3 people.
An Arabic DJ with hearing problems - God touched him and he could hear better.
A gypsy guy from central Europe who had been thrown out by his wife - hungry and homeless. We took him to MacDonalds and had a good time praying for him.
Then there was a guy outside a bar who fitted 9 of our combined clues
> Near the station
> The Royal Oak pub
> Bald
> With tattoos
> Best friend called Steven
> Had a cycle accident when he was 13
> Was bullied at school involving water
> Wrote poetry - songs
It turns out he has friends who are Christians - has done work for a church - he has done the Alpha Course!
None of the prayer needs fitted him and he started looking a bit uncomfortable. He was backing off, so we only managed a short prayer of blessing. We pray that he won't miss out on how much God knows and loves him. Lord please get him to speak about last night to his christian friends.
