Thank you everyone. I have not seen anything in the way of a response (yet) from the person, and maybe I am not meant to... but I know I will see His hand at work. Especially with so many names on the spiritual petition!

Dear One
The Bible says that HIS Word does not return void. However, it also says that all people are given one chance to hear the gospel message. I will be praying that this person will take the information given and think seriously about their lives in relationship to it.
In HIS Service

Hello Everyone
I have a special request, regarding another person. As a few of you may know by now, I am involved in the performing arts. Tonight I was given an astonishing opportunity--I took it with very little thought about the consequences and I can only trust that I was led the right way. I got the chance to witness Christ to a Hollywood personality of at least some degree of fame. I should not name names here.
I don't know if this person was receptive--poker faces are quite common down there. This person works in comedy, and afterward it dawned on me that this person's forte is, well, satire and basically "dissing" people in a supposedly humorous way.
My concern is that this person's natural inclination to be mocking might pose a problem. This person might have a reaction later of indignation and the message I tried to get across might be flung aside. I can't expect an overnight result with this person--only that a seed was planted that in time may grow into a tinge of conviction later in this person's life.
I want to ask for prayer support that this person will not feel a need to sarcastically "retaliate" because one of those stupid "chriss-chuns" tried to witness to them. Even if that is what happens, I'm willing to endure it--but I want that seed to at least stay planted, no matter how deep. I ask God to stand with me on this--praying that I read the opportunity correctly and was doing His will. Amen.
