The first couple I met from Church on the Street surprised me in a lot of ways. Their rawness and honestly was beautiful. I was taken aback by how open they were with me, a person they met only seconds ago. While I listened, I wasn’t sure what to say or how to react. I had never heard first-hand anything like what they were telling me. I had read stories and testimonies of people who had lived on the streets, but now people were right in front of me, telling me of their misfortunes and blessings. As the minutes passed, I saw the living gospel, not just in Pastor Rebel, but in the couple sitting in front of me. The visit may not have lasted long, but that couple, the first people I ever met from Church on the Street, changed my life in a lot of unexpected ways. Every time I see them, they welcome me with open arms. I am deeply grateful for this couple and how they introduced me to a life-changing ministry.
