Titus does "ok" in the ministry, too

There is a park in the middle of Bocas Town.  We make it a habit to spend one day a week in early morning service and often find ourselves talking to locals in the park.  Titus has developed a real love for ministering in the park.  He takes it very seriously. 

One morning a few weeks ago, we were speaking with someone about one of the tracts we were offering when I realized Titus was no where to be seen.  Where had he gone?  I set off to the far end of the park.  As I walk around the gazebo, what I see is both hilarious and heart-warming.  There are people everywhere-- sitting on park benches, leaning against walls, standing on sidewalks, or walking through on their way to work.  Every single one of them, perhaps 15 or 20 in all, is reading a "peaceful new world" tract either in English or Spanish at the same time-- every single person!!  I see Titus near the gazebo with one last tract in his hand waiting for the lone holdout to hang up his phone so that he could give him one too!  I wish I had a picture because words just cannot do the scene justice.

Titus also has a return visit at the park.  Mr. Machuco is an older man who specifically looks for 'Tito' and asks him what he has brought for him to read that day.  Ty is so proud and happy to have a return visit of his own.

Most recently, Titus has been wanting to share a scripture when he offers a tract.  So he has memorized James 4:8 and Revelation 21:4 while he has marked those two scriptures in his bible with the marker ribbons.  Ty is especially outgoing and loves talking with the locals so his act of placing a tract and reading a scripture typically ends up looking like this:

Julian is a worker who maintains the park.  Even though Julian is probably 3 feet taller than Ty and even though he was listening to music and in the middle of his work, he happily took time to stop and listen.  The two of them sat down for five or ten minutes talking about the Bible and some of its many promises.

It is great to see Ty identify an aspect of the ministry that he really enjoys!
