A villager opposed to the gospel told anyone who became a Christian that their children would be denied admission to government schools. A native Christian worker helped poor children gain admission to schools as part of his ministry, and when the daughter of the villager was denied access for reasons that were unclear, the worker advocated on his behalf. School officials reversed their decision and admitted the girl, and her father not only stopped threatening new Christians but began bringing his family to church services. Workers need donations of $60 or $120 to share the gospel and disciple new believers. Pray the Lord would continue to work mightily to help gospel workers.
