Rancho Community Christian School @ 9:00 AMDear Praying Friends,
By God's grace I was able to preach the gospel at Rancho Community Christian School to 140 kids during "Say No To Drugs" week, using the scripture of 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 "Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
My first point was that sin does not work, it never fills the emptiness we are looking to replace. Rather, sin leads us into the pit of despair and ultimate destruction. My second point was that while these things are terrible in God's eyes, far worse is dying without a saving grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. By God's grace over 30+ kids responded and prayed the sinners prayer to place their faith and trust in Jesus Christ that morning. God's Holy Spirit was huge that morning :-)))
a Tomas - 15 year old boy came up to me afterwards to pray. He told me that both of his parents had just recently died and he was trying to kill the pain through smoking
pot. He then asked me how he could stop smoking pot, admitting to me that he was now addicted to getting high. We prayed together to turn away from his friends and to simply stop smoking in the name of Jesus. The pastor of the school is working with him. My heart goes out to Tomas and his struggle. He is still on my mind a week later.
b Jackie - 13 year old girl addicted to pornography. Can you just imagine the pain in
her heart as she looked for attention and to be accepted. Both of her parents were never home and she had to take care of her self. My heart was crushed as a group of her friends prayed for her. The friends were also experiencing Jackie's pain vicariously in different ways.
c Jeremy - 16 year old boy sobbed as I held him in my arms. His best friend who led him to Christ passed away. His best friend was his grandmother! He wept over his loving grandmother. He told me that she was the only Godly influence in His family and how
they loved each other so much. I hugged Jeremy and prayed with him.
d Others - There were 4 others that I was able to physically pray with. Each struggling with burdens of different kinds. I was amazed at how these kids opened up to God's Holy Spirit so quickly, and all I could think was of how you guys must of prayed for the event and those kids. I know that for me one of the hardest things to do is to pray. To pray without ceasing and to pray and stay focused is most difficult. My mind often wonders away distracted as I begin to pray. Prayer is the hardest work, but it yields the greatest results :-)
I love you guys for joining us through prayer in this ministry. Because prayer is so difficult to do, so difficult to stay focused and to pray diligently, we know that prayer yields the most fruit of all. When we pray, we communicate with God! Please pray for me that I would be a man of prayer, not because of need, but because of desire and greater yearning for Him :-) |

Roadhouse Biker Church @ 7:00 PMI praise the Lord for you and for you prayers. By God's grace we were invited to preach the gospel lto 250 bikers at the Roadhouse Biker Church in San Bernardino California. The Lord led me speak on "For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.......Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need." Hebrews 4:12-16
By God's grace 5 people approached the throne of grace that night to receive mercy and find grace in Jesus. While you were not there physically (if you prayed for that evening), you were most certainly with us in God's Holy Spirit. You will be thanked in heaven by people you have never met!
Be blessed knowing your prayers are bearing fruit :-)
PS. As I was driving home that night, I thanked the Lord for you and for allowing me to experience such an awesome spirit filled church! |

Back To School/Worship Night with C28 @ 6:00 PMDear Friends,
Your prayers are the very best. Thank you for being there with me Saturday night. Over 200 kids attended Sunridge Community, and 40+ kids responded and prayed through the sinners prayer to receive Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior by faith.
We went over "For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, ......." Ephesians 1:4-7
By God's grace, I explained how those who chose to follow Jesus, to believe in Jesus and obey Him are also then chosen by God to be in Jesus. And if we are a part of Jesus by our faith in Jesus, then Jesus sees us through His eyes as "holy and blameless" by His atoning sacrifice on the cross, and our faith in Him. Imagine.......Jesus sees us through His eyes as "holy and blameless" children by our faith in Him, wow! And we know He takes good care of His children regardless of what circumstances we are going through and or how we may feel about ourselves, God loves us! I got to pray with 4 kids;
Luke - I asked Him if he knew what his name meant??? When I showed him his name came from one of the Gospels, the 11 year old broke down in tears stunned as we prayed together.
He received Jesus Christ that night to the praise and glory of our living God.
Jennifer's - brothers and sisters had just split up into different families. Her parents could not afford to take care of them any longer. My heart went out to this 17 year old now without a united family. She gave me the longest hug after we prayed together.
John - told me he could not hear God? I told him I had the same challenge, but how I hear God is by reading His word and understanding what God's word says to me. That is actually how God can speak to all of us through His word. God's word is a love letter we receive by reading it.
Derek - came up to me to tell me that he read every letter that I wrote each month. I was so humbled and blessed by this young mans encouragement, and God's undeserved grace in my life.
Derek was a hard core holy spirit filled 18 year old, full of God's knowledge, power and wisdom, wow!!!

The Attraction Youth Group Event @ 8:00 PMDear Friends,
By your prayers and God's abundant grace 2 people received Christ at this event! One person was battling their friend's suicidal tendencies and another was back sliding. Yet through God's great love they were all comforted knowing God forgave
their sins and loved them! Thank you for joining me through your prayers, this means a lot to me, and even more to God. Please know how much He loves you :-) |

Walk For Jesus @ 12:00 PMI was the third evangelist speaking at this event, and by God's grace over 20 people came to Christ. I spoke for 30 minutes outside in 106 degree blistering sun, boy was it hot. It was a great way to remind everyone of what hell would be like, and what Jesus offered them, salvation through grace, by faith alone in Jesus. Be blessed knowing the majority of new converts were mature men, usually a tougher group. I was also blessed to pray with a young 15 year old orphan girl named "Irene" who wept with joy! While you were not physically there on Saturday, please know that in spirit and through your prayers, you were indeed with me sharing the "Good News", and I thank you :-) |

C28 Outreach Concert @ 12:00 AMDear Friends,
I want to thank you for your prayers!!! The 14th "C28 OUTREACH MINISTRY" concert was totally Holy Spirit driven! Over 2,000 people were exposed to the gospel through our Northridge C28 store ministry and 200 people came forward to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior!!! The local church volunteers were awesome as they invited 114 people who received Christ to their churches for discipleship. Here are a few stories!
a. A man told us he was going to get drunk in order to kill himself that night. Instead he dropped by to hear the concert and accepted Jesus Christ! It is amazing to witness the Lord's grace so clearly.
b. A husband and wife were about to divorce. Instead, they made a commitment to stay together in Christ, and accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
c. A lesbian couple came forward repenting of their sins and giving their lives over to Jesus Christ. God's grace was so abundant! Praise the Lord!
As you can tell these were only 3 stories out of hundreds of people who came to faith that night. Everyone had a reason; everyone needed our Lord and Savior! Please accept my heart- felt thanks for your prayers. Those of you who donated to this event and made it possible, please know the Lord is pleased with your gift. To further donate please see http://www.c28outreach.com/
I was challenged that night when asked, "Aurelio, how many of these C28 Outreach concerts would you do a year if you knew Jesus was coming in 12 months?" I was totally convicted by this man's question. You see, we currently only have two free C28 outreaches per year because they cost $40k-$50K. If you do the math, the simple question becomes "Is a man’s soul worth more than $200?" If you could donate and join the work of the Lord in a tangible way and provide eternal life for $200, would you do it more often?"
By God's will and His grace over 11,800 have prayed the sinner’s prayer through the ministry of C28 and we praise Jesus!!! May our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ encourage you and keep you near Him as you seek His face.
In His Grace,
Aurelio F. Barreto III
C28/NOTW Founder & CEO |
