Using English lessons to share the gospel

My team and I arrived in Senegal, met our host and began teaching him English. He knew some English from previous years but still needed some additional instruction.

One of my team members taught him English from the Bible and in doing so, had an opportunity to share the gospel with him.

Just the other day, my team had a chance to meet a local believer and encourage him. We could tell he really needed some encouragement and we feel that the Father really lifted him up. While we where there encouraging him he told us of about seven others who where reading the Bible. They were really interested in meeting with us weekly for study.

Please pray that these meetings will go well and that they will understand and believe.
