Heinz 57!

As Juli mentioned recently, we are bringing one of our Bible storytelling groups to a conclusion...or to a whole new beginning, hopefully. After hearing all 57 stories in the chronological series we use, we are asking these Muslim-background guys to make up their minds. Last Saturday I asked them to begin thinking if they want to "cross the bridge'' that will take them back to God. I explained again how Jesus is the only thing to help them bridge the gap of sin which their lives have created. And I said that if they can tell me about another bridge that will take them into heaven then I sure want to hear about it! Today (Wednesday 4 pm here, or 10 a.m. in Missouri) is the day I've asked them for a decision!

Will you please be praying for the group? The practicing Muslims in the group are Salifou (the guy who owns the laundry shack where we meet), Mr. Diarra (who irons there) and Alassan (our plummer). Then there is San-San, Edouard (Catholic backgroud), and a kid named Bernard. It would make angels dance in heaven to see any of these guys accept Christ as Lord, and we would be pretty thrilled too. Ask God to bring them back into humble submission to Him and receive eternal life. Pray for their salvation today! Thank you!
