Please pray for Lamin that he will place his faith and trust in Jesus
Christ. My earthly friendship with Lamin is temporal, but I hope
and pray that he will choose Jesus for his eternal salvation.

As a missionary and pioneering church planter, it is impossible to
see how God is going to direct and whom God is going to bring
along one’s path. That is why we must view everyone as a soul
Christ loves and died for because one never knows who may be
ready to receive Him by faith.

The Bible says in Romans 1:16 that the Gospel of Jesus Christ is
the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth. Here
in Gambia, a small West African nation that is 96% Islamic, we do
not see the same response to the Gospel that other nations of the
world see. Yet we know that God has called us to this challenging
and difficult field to faithfully proclaim the Gospel. The fruits of
our labor are in the Lord’s hands, but what a joy it is to cultivate
friendships like the one I have with Lamin in hopes that they too
will know what it means to be forgiven and to be free in Christ. W
