Three of us (Charlotte - for the first time, Toni and Allan) set off from the Fraser's house, armed with the following clues that met with direct matches: near the Railway Museum, short blonde hair, age 31-41, steel (all for one person!)
We gave out many invites to King's Church (http://www.kingschurchdarlington.org/) and to Ignite (http://www.igniteyouthevent.co.uk/) before heading off to the railway museum area. We waited there for a few minutes before a piece of treasure came along who fitted all the clues above, which is either an incredible coincidence or God at work - we know what we believe!
We approached the young man (aged 31-41 approx) with short blonde hair, as he passed the railway museum, and struck up a conversation. We showed him the clue card and he said he worked in the steel industry, which was under the 'Unusual' heading.
After sharing our faith and that we firmly believed that God had sent us to meet him, his attitude changed from 'I don't think there is a God' to 'This is really weird, I'm not going to be able to get this out of my head', which we said is exactly what God wants! He asked more questions about God and Church, to which we were more than happy to provide answers.
We finished off by asking him if there was anything we could pray for. He said that all was well in life but that he and his partner are expecting a baby in two weeks and that could we pray for a healthy baby.
I don't think God has finished with him yet. In fact, I don't think he is going to be able to get Him out of his head!
