State St.
+G Joe -- "I have no complaints." Joe is a man who has recovered from great bitterness of spirit.
+Walter -- "For a Merry Christmas and for peace around the world." We also prayed for peace on the streets of Schenectady.
+G Rizon (man) -- "For me and my kids."
+Bruce (man) -- "For my family and for health." He has emphysema and diabetes runs in his family.
+G Michelle (with young daughter)
++++G Janice -- After she left we prayed that God would re-wire her brain (there is evident mental disturbance).
+G Chet (and +nephew) -- "For my family."
GGGG Viki (young Guyanese man) -- "I'm a Hindhu. I hear you give out gloves.) After giving him the gloves, I prayed with him that he would come to know Jesus.
+GMH Miss Mary (a good friend of Debra, a regular) -- After praying for her, we prayed for her husband, Mr. Willie.
Debra (regular) -- We prayed for her parents (Berry and Elizabeth).
We prayed for the house next door. There was a steady stream of "customers" there.
+Larry -- "For a blessing. I need some work."
++++++++Ebony (she is Pastor Eric's wife of the Macedonia 7th Day Adventist Church on Swan St.) She gives the crosses to her students at a school.
+G Rumar (man) -- "For my family and for Christmas."
+Kevin -- "For my family." We prayed that he would be God's man.
+GH Nathan (man) -- Nathan rode up on a bike. When I asked if he wanted prayer he said, "No." I asked him if he would like a pair of gloves and he said, "Yes, my hands are bitter cold." Then we suggested he pick out a hat from the box of hats knitted by the ladies in Colonie. He picked out one that he liked and put it on with tears running down his face. He then said that he had grown up in the Roman Catholic Church and had been an altar boy. When we asked he said he had given his life to Jesus. We suggested it was time to do that again, which he did. He confessed his sins to Jesus and gave Him his burdens. He accepted forgiveness and received a cross. We urged him to get into a Christian fellowship.
