During our time of evangelism in Crombo, the chief of the village and his wife both accepted the Lord Jesus as their Savior. Such conversion often opens the door for the Gospel in the village.

Lately, Plateau state has experienced a series of attacks. My relatives have therefore put pressure on me to return and continue my evangelistic work at home.

Pray for grace to remain steadfast knowing that our security is in God’s hands.
