May 12
A farmer addicted to alcohol and abusive toward his wife and children attended church with his family one Sunday at the invitation of his neighbor. When he heard the gospel preached that day, he and his wife accepted Jesus as Savior, and their life together was immediately changed. The farmer gave up alcohol and became an avid reader of Scripture; he and his family attend church services every week; and he serves as a deacon, helps clean the church, and accompanies the local missionary to other towns to share his testimony. Donations help native missionaries spread the gospel. Pray that the message of Christ will impact those who hear it.
