Hello Praying Friends,

Safety Zones of America
March 2026

The March Youth Safety Zone and Kids Safety Zone were a wonderful blessing! Students filled our activity center with energy and enthusiasm, and God moved in a powerful way. We are deeply grateful for every prayer offered and every gift given on behalf of this outreach. Because of your partnership, young lives were touched for Christ.

Joining us for our Street Safety Zone, Kensington Outreach was a wonderful team of associate evangelists, interns, and lay leaders who gave their time and energy for the gospel. On the corner of Kensington and Allegheny Avenue, we held five gospel presentations, placed over 150 pieces of gospel literature into hungry hands, and were privileged to counsel more than 25 individuals, with several trusting Christ as their Savior. What an awesome Street Safety Zone for the Kingdom! Please keep us in your prayers as we prepare for our next outreach.

The 65-65-65 Book Project Spring Kick Off was a tremendous blessing! Through the many books we placed in the hands of students, the gospel is now traveling into homes all across the inner city of Philadelphia. We are believing God for a mighty harvest from every book that was given out. Praise the Lord for open doors and willing hearts!

Street Safety Zones: Even on a rainy morning and through the lunch hour, we took to the streets of Philadelphia's Kensington neighborhood with the gospel. The Lord gave us a wonderful opportunity to minister to over 150 people, and many were counseled for prayer and salvation. Rain could not stop what God had planned! Thank you for your continued prayers as we press on with the gospel.

Associate Evangelist Brandon had a wonderful opportunity to counsel a young man for renewal, offering encouragement and directing his heart back to the Lord. I was privileged to preach twice during the outreach, and at each invitation several precious souls came forward to accept Christ as a public declaration of faith. To God be all the glory!

Prayer Requests:

Please keep Becky in your prayers. She has been dealing with persistent bone pain in her chest and shoulders for the past eight months. We trust the Lord for His healing touch and are grateful for every prayer on her behalf. And please continue to pray for Dr. Tony Rizzo as he goes out week after week into the streets of Philadelphia to share the gospel. Every soul matters. Every conversation counts. My heart is fully set on seeing that one more soul come to Christ — and it is your prayers that make the difference. Thank you so very much!

Youth Action Ministries

Here at Youth Action, we strive to share the Gospel of Christ wherever people may be found. Whether indoors or out, we want to reach people with the Good News of salvation by grace through Christ. We share the Gospel through various methods such as sketch board messages, object lessons, music, and Gospel-oriented “magic” tricks. These are designed to engage people’s attention and share Christ with them.
