Did You Know
That Christ Is On the Mall
By Cheryle M. Touchton
The Pocket Full of Quarters Lady
I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one: I in them and you in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. John 17:22-23 NIV
Christ will be on the National Mall on the 4th of July. For the last 23 years, Christ has been offered on the National Mall every 4th of July. Through the organization (Christ on the Mall), churches and ministries from all over the country come together and meet in the park across from the White House for the purpose of leading people to Christ. The mission is to link people, churches, and ministries together in relationship throughout the year and then for outreach on the National Mall in Washington D.C. on July 4th. This year, Pocket Full of Change Ministries, will join Inside Out Ministries from Seattle, Washington, for this evangelistic event.
At the Mt. Hermon Christian Writer’s Conference, I met Julie. Julie is a Christian writer, a monumental force in Christian work, church planting, and missions, and a member of Inside Out Ministries in Seattle, Washington. When she heard about Pocket Full of Change Ministries, she invited me to her beautiful home on Mercer Island in Seattle, Washington. (See website – Photogallery Washington – Mercer Island – Julie Home) I was thrilled to accept her invitation.
On Saturday night, June 7, 2008, Julie invited a group of her friends from Inside Out Ministries to hear about the Pocket Full of Quarters journey. (see website – Washington – Inside Out Ministries) For an hour, this group patiently watched my slides, listened to my adventures, and prayed for the ministry. Then they told me about their journeys.
Each year, Inside Out Ministries takes a tour, which they call Hope Tour. Their purpose is to share Christ. On June 28, Hope Tour 2008 is going to Manhattan, New York and then to Washington D. C. to participate in the Christ on the Mall event. They have invited me to join them in Washington D. C. on July 1-4 and I was honored to accept their invitation. Each night, we will be staying at First Baptist Church in Alexandria, Virginia and traveling into the city each day to prayer walk the city and witness to people. Please be in prayer for this event.
