It seems an NEA official stopped by after a complaint by someone who was offended by some of our free materials. This was reminiscent of two years ago when the NEA tried to intimidate us into moving our "Gay Marriage" booklets out of public view after someone was 'offended'. It sounds like they realized we have the right, as an official caucus, to hand out materials that may be contrary to official NEA policy. So praise the Lord! Once again He has sustained us this year at this hostile venue.

 

Since all the DVDs are gone and the alligator is gone, we have more time to get into meaningful one on one conversations with folks, so we are praising the Lord for His timing on everything. Here's Tom talking with a teacher.

The NEA has a history of suppressing views contrary to their own. Here members from the Pro-Life Caucus tell of their history in getting their materials uncensored by the NEA powers that be. Thanks to their persistence, the Creation Science Educators Caucus and other conservative caucuses have the right to display and freely handout any materials it wishes, praise God! There was also a big pro-life demonstration outside the convention center today, so please pray that God would change hearts and minds concerning the terrible atrocity of murdering babies in the womb.

 

This security guard passed by our booth several times after his comrades booted out our alligator. He finally stopped to chat with Dr. Jobe and Jenna Dee Martin. They talked for about an hour.

A government school teacher uses an interesting choice of words to describe the Creation Science booth.

 

The security for the NEA kicked out our alligator. But not before the Lord brought huge crowds to gobble up almost all of our materials. All 3000 DVDs have been distributed for free to thousands of NEA members. Hundreds of Answers Magazine copies have been handed out as well. We only have a small pile of booklets that we are passing out now. Thank you all for your prayers. Please continue to pray that God would use the materials in folks’ lives!

The security people were having a pretty good time as well. All went smoothly, we made a quiet exit.

 

There is a booth at the NEA that is calling for the "separation of church and state". They give out brochures and pamphlets arguing for removing religion from government entities. A young woman came by the Creation Science booth to look at our materials.

 

 

Here's a picture of the "Americans United for Separation of Church and State" booth.

The alligator 'smiles' for the camera.

 

This second morning of the expo is hopping! Dan Breeding of Creatures of Creation and Wild Animal Encounters is volunteering at the Creation Science Educators booth and he has brought a LIVE SEVEN FOOT LONG ALLIGATOR! People are lining up to see, touch and have their picture taken with the gator. And while they are all here at the booth, we are giving away hundreds of "The Last Adam" DVDs to them. Many are very open to receiving the DVDs, so please pray that the Lord would move in their hearts as they watch this spectacular gospel presentation.

 

Praise God for great attendance which has resulted in over 1000 DVDs taken in the first day!
