SHINE Week 8, 9, 10

Shine! We drove to Edinburgh on 7/29, to work with Shine which is a YWAM outreach at the Fringe Festival. The Fringe Festival is one of the biggest fine arts festivals in the world, people from all over come to see Comedy, Theater, Music, Dance, and Art Exhibitions. While being there I saw so many amazing things, people singing, magic tricks, and other things that I probably never really wanted to see. We set up amazing Christian concerts, worship services, M.A.D.D (Music, Art, Drama, and Dance) camps for the kids, and did a few videos about Shine and the Fringe. For Shine we really felt we just needed to be a light in the darkness, and to love on the people and really show Gods love.
With our effort there, for 2 weeks. Making everything happen, learning new things like there was so much spiritual warfare, we all had spiritual attacks somehow, like water being spit in faces while we read our bibles, having 3 men swear at us while we were praying and singing, and for me there was a tarot card reader and I wasnt sure why but I was stoped and something inside of me told me to go talk to him. When I did I asked how he got into it. He looked at me strangly and answered the question with "oh Im a healer" I just didnt know what to say to this, so I stood there for a minute and he gave me this evil and scary look so we walked away and then we decided we needed to pray for him so we went across the street and prayed and when I looked over at him while I was praying I saw him glaring at me.
It was hard, yes, but through all of that 6 people were saved!
It was the most amazing experience, but some of us are still a little shaken by what happened.
So with a bit of prayer and more rest we will be alright.
