Battle Log of Operation 513 at Toowong on Tuesday Nov 5, 2024 from 1330-1430
Today, I went to Toowong to do street outreach on my own as my team mate is overseas. It was a scorching day with Temperature surging up to 33C, and the Bus stop was even trapped in higher temperature like a furnace because of the radiant heat radiated by the concrete surface of the bus stop. A normal person will get sunburn if exposed under such heat over 10 minutes. I managed to try if how long I could put up with the heat, and eventually stay there for 40 minutes. I could gained two long conversations with first a Filipino girl then a Kiwi young man both are migrants but already called Australian home. The Filipino lady is a Catholic Christian but lacking assurance of salvation, The Kiwi young man is non-religious but was open and humble to listen to the full gospel showing good receptiveness. There were many more short conversations that were cut short by the quick arrival of bus , and many rejections mostly because of the extreme heat that caused impatience for people to chat under the scorching sun.
