Battle Log of Operation 513 for Toowong on Tuesday July 25h, 2023 from 1330 – 1500

It was a pleasant day for open air outreach, not hot, no cold but just warm. Also as the beginning of a new term, there was a long queue of students waiting for the bu. Many new students were caught up mostly by Johnny, who gave preference to Chinese students. I picked up people randomly with more other nationalities. One surprised encounter was with a Aussie look Hong Kongers who has just returned to Brisbane a week ago. Apart from a small group of mainlanders who were rejective to hear the gospel, people of all other nations appear open and receptive. Recap is the Battle Log of Hung.

1) My first approach was with a mainlander girl from Tsinghai she is of Han tribe and majoring in Economic We had a good chat though when touching on the life issue if good person can go to heaven, she seemed to have a bit of reservation but in general, still appeared open to the gospel.
2) Than I approached an Indian man who did not queue for the bus. Thus, I thought he was nt in a hurry, but he looked a bit uneasy and use an excuse to queue for the bus when a few buses arrived. I anyway still had chance to catch up with him slightly about the gospel until he really boarded a bus.
3) Then I picked up an Indian couple from Bangalore. The boy showed initial no interest but still ended up with a good chat and took a tract.
4) Then I caught up with a girl from Wuhan who studies Sociology in UQ. She was delighted to know I had been to Wuhan and was empathy with the time the city was in complete locked down. She was happy to take a tract when her bus arrived.
5) Then I connected with yet another Indian girl Rachel who has migrated and live here in Brisbane. She was also very open for a chat and listen the full gospel.
6) Amber from Shandong China Has been here for three years doing study in Finance. She was also all open to the gospel message.
7) Ashley another Indian doing Social Science was also open for a chat on the gospel message.
8 ) Thereafter, I suddenly encounter numerous rejection by the Mainlanders.
9) Then it was the surprise of the day that I met a Hongkonger but of Aussie origin. He showed me his HKG ID card. It was a pity his bus came and we took a selfie to give each other a chance to chat if we can meet next week.
10) Naveen an India from Southern India Galore. He was very open to the gospel message and indicated he has friends sharing similar message to him before.
