Sports Fan Outreach Int'l labors for fans and local citizens at major sporting events to become Christians.

Hello Bill,


Praise the Lord for the Saints who traveled to Hamilton, Ontario, Canada for 4 days straight of Gospel ministry and fellowship during the Grey Cup. This team was preaching at the Grey Cup Festival from Nov. 16 - 18 and at the game at Tim Horton's Field on Sunday, Nov. 19.


Rev. Paul Luth from St. George's Reformed Episcopal Church in Hamilton hosted the team each day for prayer and teaching. We met at his church Thursday - Saturday at 8:00 AM for prayer and at 9:00 AM for teaching. Then we departed for ministry at the Grey Cup Festival until 6:00 PM and returned to St. George's at 7:00 PM for a recap of the day's interactions with the fans and closing prayer with Rev. Luth. These times provided for wonderful fellowship as well as prayer and teachings.


Sunday morning the team attended services at St. George's and shared in the congregational fellowship and lunch afterwards. Then at 12:30 departed for Tim Horton's Field for game day ministry.


The morning devotional teachers were:


Dr. Yuh Jason N. Yuh Assistant Professor of Religion and Theology at Redeemer University in Hamilton.


Pastor Benjamin Hicks from London Free Reformed Church in London.


Below are many videos and pictures. Read the quote below from Dr. Yuh. He came to teach us a devotional on Thursday morning. After spending an hour or so with us fellowshipping and teaching this is what he said:


"Thank you again for giving me the opportunity to share with you and the team yesterday. More than anything, I was profoundly invigorated having met all of you. In almost all my interactions, I hardly get to enjoy a meaningful time with older men who are consciously aware that their only hope is in Christ. So I felt deeply affirmed in many ways that I did not expect--a sense that the work I am currently doing is not in vain and a more concrete picture of what my own conformity to Christ looks like."

Toronto in Pictures

This Christian lady (pictured above) from Pakistan said the Lord told her to come to Union Station in Toronto and there she found Stirling proclaiming and ministering the Gospel to the citizens of Toronto.

This Christian lady (featured below) came to Niagara Falls with a group so she could witness to them at lunch. She saw Scott preaching and came over. She had tracts and distributed them every day.
