2023 Schoolie Surfers Paradise, With Operation 513 team from 1615-1715

Christine, Alvin and Hung teamed up to join the Schoolie Street outreach ministry at the Cavill Avenue of the Surfers Paradise. The OPN 513 team were already there spreading out all having their gospel target. I could only tap on the shoulder of Ryan and Glen to let him know I had arrived. Then quickly I reunited with Christine and Alvin who came by another car. I was not a smooth sailing outreach experience, luckily it only happened to me and Christine with Alvin walking elsewhere. While we were trying to share the gospel to someone, a local Aussie seemingly with mental health issue and half drunken had kept interfering our conversation throwing to us endless no nonsense questions and yelled to stop us from sharing as he deemed we did not know Jesus. We had empathy on him because his suspected mental health issue and just tried to avoid him but he was determined to target me and Christine possibly because of our race. As far as I could see, he never dared or attempted to interrupt conversation of the OPN 513 team members which predominantly are western people. I even had to alert the police to keep and eyes on this guy. But he was determined to harass us till the end even when we ended by closing prayers.
