Middle East discipleship

26 May 2022

Give thanks for the faithful ministry of our partners who are journeying with seekers, often from other faith backgrounds, as they explore the way of Jesus. A 25-year-old man recently contacted them through a Facebook page – he had been reading the Bible and wanted to know more. After being put in touch with a minister local to him, this young man has been regularly meeting to learn the meaning of being a disciple and is now committed to the local church and has been baptised. Pray for all such courageous people exploring faith in Jesus for themselves.
