One Story of How God is Working Quietly Among Muslims

Jonathan is working among an unreached, Muslim tribe who live in his homeland in Africa. He became friends with a Muslim man who is a leader in a mosque. As their friendship developed, Jonathan shared not only his personal story but also Jesus' story with him. Not long after, Jesus appeared to this man in a dream and confirmed the truth about the things that Joseph had been sharing with him. Early the next morning, he went to Jonathan's house crying "with big tears" telling him about the dream. Jonathan continued to relate this story, saying, "After that it was very difficult for my friend to keep his story secret from his family so he shared it with an uncle who is also a leader in the mosque. This uncle told others in the mosque and small groups started even while staying within that mosque.” Today there is a disciple making movement within the Muslim mosque of over 35 groups. Those groups have helped their community in so many ways, especially with the recent floods where so many houses were destroyed. They brought food and helped the people who were really suffering by showing them the love of Jesus. Because of their love, many of them wanted to know more about their faith. "We do not call these groups churches. We call them Groups of Friends, because now they have come to believe that the Isa (Jesus) they learned about in the Quran is now also their Savior."

We are inspired by the hundreds of teams from this mission organization working in unreached and often unsafe parts of the world. With your help, it has been an honor to serve them this week.​
