I did the talk at the cathedral yesterday afternoon. The talk itself came out fairly well at the end, after slaving over it for a few days, and by Wednesday I had become more comfortable with doing it - thanks for praying for that. There wasn’t a lot of public though, about 20-30 people, of whom a large majority were people involved in the evangelistic campaign or with the cathedral. They had been about twice as many people at the talks at the beginning of the week, but in general it seemed like the pilgrims didn’t want to see down to listen to a talk for half an hour. Just talking with people worked a lot better however. They were having about 1000 pilgrims a day going through the cathedral, and the staff tried to talk to as many as possible and leave them some literature. Since the pilgrims all had some religious interest, it was easy to start up spiritual conversations with them, and that part of the campaign was more effective than the talks.
