A follower of a local religion was unable to find peace, and when native missionaries shared the gospel with him, he listened carefully as they taught from the Bible. After much consideration, he put his faith in Christ. “I have left my old behavior and character, and I am saved now,” he said. “I am now living in peace and praying for forgiveness for the sins I committed before I accepted the Lord Jesus Christ.” Workers visiting villages have seen many tribal people turn to Christ. Donations are sought for such proclamation of the gospel and discipling of those who believe. Local missionaries request prayer that more tribal people would be saved.
