A refugee family that has lived for eight years in a refugee center learned about Christ through a native ministry and chose to accept Jesus as Savior and be baptized, leaving behind their traditional Muslim religion. Though their life in the refugee center is difficult and their future uncertain, their perspective was transformed when they became believers. “They follow a discipleship study every week and they understand that now they are a part of God’s family,” the ministry leader said. “They follow Jesus in a serious way.” Gifts of $35 or $70 support compassionate aid to families such as theirs. Pray for the Holy Spirit to encourage ministry workers in this important work.
Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; For the Lord God is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation.” (Isaiah 12:2)
