Fort Smith's Christmas Parade




This Saturday ( Dec. 6th ) a group of us will be heading out to The Fort Smith's Christmas Parade at 3 p.m. on Garrison Avenue.

We will be handing out these tracts to people and seeing if we can also do some one2one witnessing anyone that lives close to the Fort Smith, AR area that would like to join us is welcome to come and join us, we will have around 1,000+ of these tracts to hand out, if you would like to join with us you can email me at stargun@sbcglobal.net and I will give you more information on were we will be meeting at, and the time we are going and if you can't make it because you do live around the Fort Smith area or you already have plans then please keep us in your prayers and be praying also for the souls of the people that will be getting the tracts and that if they are not saved that the LORD JESUS CHRIST will open their hearts and bring them to true Repentance and Faith in JESUS CHRIST alone.
Thanks everyone for your prayers.

P.S. If you look real good at the back of the Tracts it shows a picture of a naughty and nice list and on the left there is a lot of names under the naughty side and just one JESUS under the nice side, which I really liked that.

Sowing the seed of the gospel

Sowing the seed of the gospel. A student at Jacksonville University in Florida was given a
tract. The student crumpled the pamphlet up and tossed it into a trash bin in his dorm. Later, his
dorm mate picked it out of the trash, read it, and was soundly saved. He is now a pastor of a
church in Florida.
“A Christian I met in a home group said his job was raking litter off the Avon River. It was dull,
boring work and he often wondered what life was all about. One day he raked a soggy piece of
paper off the water and decided it was interesting enough to keep, so he carefully placed it in his
bag and took it home. That evening he dried the paper in front of a heater and carefully unfolded
it, then he read it . . . it was a gospel tract. He became a Christian that evening.” Richard Gunther
“Nothing surpasses a tract for sowing the seed of the Good News.” Billy Graham

Charles Spurgeon on Tracts:

“I well remember distributing them in a town in England where tracts had never been distributed
before, and going from house to house, and telling in humble language the things of the kingdom
of God. I might have done nothing, if I had not been encouraged by finding myself able to do
something...[Tracts are] adapted to those persons who have but little power and little ability, but
nevertheless, wish to do something for Christ. They have not the tongue of the eloquent, but they
may have the hand of the diligent. They cannot stand and preach, but they can stand and distribute
here and there these silent preachers . . . They may buy their thousand tracts, and these they can distribute
broadcast.
“I look upon the giving away of a religious tract as only the first step for action not to be compared
with many another deed done for Christ; but were it not for the first step we might never
reach to the second, but that first attained, we are encouraged to take another, and so at the
last . . . There is a real service of Christ in the distribution of the gospel in its printed form, a service
the result of which heaven alone shall disclose, and the judgment day alone discover. How many
thousands have been carried to heaven instrumentally upon the wings of these tracts, none can
tell.
“I might say, if it were right to quote such a Scripture, ‘The leaves were for the healing of the
nations’—verily they are so. Scattered where the whole tree could scarcely be carried, the very
leaves have had a medicinal and a healing virtue in them and the real word of truth, the simple
statement of a Savior crucified and of a sinner who shall be saved by simply trusting in the Savior,
has been greatly blessed, and many thousand souls have been led into the kingdom of heaven by
this simple means. Let each one of us, if we have done nothing for Christ, begin to do something
now. The distribution of tracts is the first thing.”
