It feels like forever since I have posted to the tribe. My apologies but I had a great opportunity to minister over the weekend at Saint’s Home Church of God in Christ’s Youth Explosion and Grace Temple in Terre Haute, IN. It was a great weekend. I got the opportunity to paint four paintings, do a 10 foot square street painting and preach the Word. God was at work and lives were transformed, to Him be the glory. I feel like I’ve made some lifelong friendships this weekend and hope to get back there again soon. Our topic for the weekend was The Church Has Left the Building: Takin’ It to the Streets and that is exactly what the folks did. We went to a city park and share the Gospel in song, art and word. It was fantastic. Many people were fed, prayed for and blessed. Below are some photos of the event (Thanks Jerry White).
If your church would be interested in doing a similar event, I’d love to help you out. Contact me at amokarts@aol.com.

Flip side of the Demoniac painting. The point...Jesus can turn your life around!
Italian Street Painting begins in the park in Terre Haute
I had several helpers to complete the street painting

The finished street painting. It rained in the middle of making it which took the colors down a little bit but it still came out pretty good, thanks to all who helped.
Starting my painting Dichotomy, the painting I used to illustrate my park message
I really enjoyed having the children right there watching me paint.

We were truly blessed and inspired. Thank you for being a vessel God can use to reach His people. May the blessings of God be upon you and your family.

Thanks so much Sister Mary. I pray that God would use you and my brothers and sisters at Saint’s Home in a multitude of fantastic ways as you take it to the streets. I would be glad to come back any time.
God bless,
Dave
