Battle Log of Operation 513 for Toowong on Tuesday July 4th, 2023 from 1330 – 1500

It was a rainy day with down pouring all day long, but the team spirit of the Toowong Street outreach was not deterred an iota to give in stopping our weekly regular outreach. The rain did cause some inconvenience as people mood generally were no good and we have to struggle hiding away from the rain under the bus stop cover. Above all the energy and passion of Hao Qin was extraordinarily high to keep him rushing for any gospel target turning up at the bus stop. Johnny and Hung both had the understanding to give Qin the priority to make the first approach. Under those circumstances, Hung and Johnny both got less conversation. Hung however got a couple of interesting and important follow up conversation with some previous target checking on their status. Recap below is the Battle Log of Hung.

1) Teresa a devoted Catholic Christian who seriously rejects all protestant teaching but deemed that the catholic teaching handing down from Peter as the first apostolic authority teaching to the pop of each generation. I tried my best to point out the deficiency of Catholic teaching that still requires producing enough good deeds in earning the status of eternal life apart from the redemptive grace of Jesus. She simply shut her ears up refusing to listen to my side of story. So, I think I would not approach her any more in future at this very bis stop.

2) Jessie a local Aussie was open with a soft heart to listen to the full gospel.

3) A Local Aussie Nic we met last week was approached by Qin first but I took over the conversation to double check if he still has 100 % assurance of salvation. Praise be to the Lord he is all clear and promised to do likewise in the campus to share the gospel to others.

4) An ABC not knowing her parent’s country of origin but still was polite enough to let me share the gospel with her. Her Chinese is exceptionally good as she and other sidling were taught to speak Chinese at home.

5) An English-speaking girl possibly Korean was not willing to chat initially rejecting Johnny. a moment later, I approach her again to take a soft and friend making approach. It works and we started chatting though she still emphasizes our conversation should not be religious. But at the end, I still manage to start the gospel yet covering the nutshell when her bus came.

6) The last one was on Phone for a long long time till the bus came.
