College Football Championship Outreach '25

Stirling Long shares some photos and thoughts about the CFC Outreach 2025. The Outreach was held in Atlanta, GA where the Championship game alone had more than 75,000 attendees. Tracts were distributed and the Name of our Lord proclaimed at the ministry locations.

Jan 18th: "With SFOI dedicated Evangelists at the start of this year’s College Football Championships. Despite the inclement weather we pressed on preaching in the Open the Gospel of Jesus Christ. “Then  he said to them, “Go into all the world   and preach the gospel to all creation.  ” - Mark‬ ‭16‬:‭15‬ ‭CSB‬‬"

Jan 19th: "I must say it was challenging day preaching the Gospel at today the second day of the College Football Championships downtown Atlanta. The temperatures kept plummeting until at late afternoon with the wind chill factor the local temperature was 6 degrees Fahrenheit. These men portrayed the conviction of their belief in the Gospel of Jesus Christ and endured the freezing cold conditions."

Jan 20th: "When Open Air Preaching - people often ask in the Church, what results do you get and who listens to you. Our standard reply is that our response is 100%. Let me qualify that; we preach the gospel that puts the hearers and listeners under His word. They either have to accept the word or reject the word. Here tonight whilst preaching at the College Football Championships, an attorney named Dave from Arizona, came up to Alex and I to tell Alex and me he had listened to us both preach and he agreed with everything we said. He was a Notre Dame supporter but was not Catholic."
