Hi,
I have a prayer request for the group.
I just sent my friend a letter to
tell him about Jesus Christ and how Easter is a celebration of our hope in Him
and what He did for us. He used to work in the KC office with me and he became
one of my best friends. He is Muslim, so I wanted to make sure he heard the
real message of Jesus. Please pray that his heart is open to the message. Even
if it doesn't take root now, I want a good seed to be planted. I also sent him
a Bible in the hopes that he'll get curious enough to read it (I marked the
Book of John, since it's a great starting point).
He is such a kind person,
which is surprising since he's been through so much. He came from South Sudan
(his story is similar to the men in "The Lost Boys of Sudan"). A Baptist
church in Iowa sponsored his escape to America. He was also imprisoned when he
was 16 for refusing to kill innocent civilians (a soldier handed him a gun and
commanded him to shoot). He truly is an amazing person.
Thank you,
Renee
How exciting was that to be part of his escape to America?!?
