Last Saturday, some 350 Christians of all ages – representing 29 churches of many denominations and at least 10 different cities – joined together for Operation Jesus.

The goal for Operation Jesus Phase 2 was to reach every home in Mineral Wells with what Founder Steve Monson calls “STP” – a smile, a tract and a prayer. The morning began at 8 a.m. where everyone gathered for breakfast and prayer. Mark Alcorn, owner of My Father’s Business, commented, “It was great to see all those people of different churches and different nationalities together for one purpose.  It was like a glimpse of Heaven.”
