	Street Preachers Fellowship
		The open air street evangelist has from God, the calling (1 Corinthians 1:25-27/ 4:9, 10) in the ministry that is without exception, the most controversial aspect of the New Testament gospel ministration.
		For three decades, the street preaching minister of Christ often found himself all alone, fighting a losing battle against authorities bent on silencing his open witness and continual preaching.
		But today, God has raised up a formidable army of street preaching fanatics, that are tired of the death tolling silence of 95% of Christian ministers who have confined the preaching of the gospel behind four walls while sin runs rampant in the streets of our communities.
