Manny came into the C28 Riverside store with one of his friends. They had heard about the store through a couple of their family members because "they like to go to church and all that stuff".

Seeing that he made a point to distinguish between his church-going family members and himself, I asked him why he didn't like to go to church with them. He said that he likes to go to parties. He knew about God and even shared that his dad has Bible studies at his house once a week.

I shared the "why tree", "saved by grace" and the "heaven or hell" shirts with him. He seemed to agree with everything i shared. so i asked him: "so which one would pick? heaven or hell? grace or wrath?" He said that it would seem pretty obvious which one you would want. I couldn't agree more!

I told him that he should take the first steps towards a relationship with Christ. " what do you mean?, what do i have to do," he asked. "PRAY. would you like me to pray with you?" he said yes, he would like to pray. PRAISE JESUS.
