Thursday began as a relatively quiet evening with Brendan. We talked and reflected. Our hearts in prayer. Visitors included a group from Teen Challenge. Despite an inability to participate in the vigil themselves, they offered to support us in prayer from where ever they might be. We also met a nice man who seemed to have quite a bit of life experience. He'd been in the military, did some missionary work in South America exposing and fighting corruption. He'd moved to Vegas for some time and had virtually nothing good to say about his time there. I hope he will join us in prayer some day.
We were relieved at 10p by Pastor Dean and waited a while for his partner to arrive. Shortly after there came a young man from across the street pleading for help. Surmising he had been injured we called 911. Apparently the young man had just gotten jumped and robbed in the alley (the long black train) up the street. The young man had just moved here the previous day. Desperate for companionship he went with a group of strangers who promised a party. With an empty wallet and likely a broken hand, his longing will go on. Pray for him. The police came just as we were leaving.
