I have heard the comments nearly every year dealing with why we would want to make a trip all the way to New Orleans to minister on the streets during Mardi Gras. My comment is always the same...."If we can reach just one".
Angie and I were sitting up late one night a few weeks ago around 11:00 when the phone rang. I wondered who was calling so late and when I looked and noticed the New Orleans area code I figured it was one of my buddies from down there. When I answered the phone all I heard was a jubilant voice on the other end praising the Lord. It was a guy named David Cooper who Felisha and I had ministered extensively to on Bourbon Street. This was truly a divine appointment with him. We were going to minister to him as he kept glancing at us then he took off running down the street only to return and this is when Felisha stopped him.
Now the brother is in a rehab and is totally on fire for the Lord! He continued thanking us over and over as I talked with him. He said "thank you so much for coming to New Orleans and ministering to me, my life is changed"! Felisha talked with him also and received the same. Was it worth it for us to go to New Orleans? Ask David and I am sure he will tell you that it was! PRAISE THE LORD!
