February 27
Workers with a local ministry led a shaman to Christ. When he became terminally ill, he sought medical treatment, but nothing helped. Upon hearing about the man’s condition, several missionaries visited him, explained the gospel, and prayed for him. He called them the following day to tell them he was completely healed, and he decided to follow Jesus and throw away his instruments for shamanic rituals. “We went to his house to pray with him and remove all the idols and altars in his house,” the ministry leader said. Donations of $35 or $70 are sought to expand the kingdom through local evangelism. Pray that God would guide native workers to those whose hearts are open to the gospel.
“Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.” (1 Cor. 13:7)
