Evangelism to the Lebou

many of us have the sole idea that missionaries and preachers in foreign countries gather up unbelievers and preach the Gospel to them straight up by the hundreds. well that is true in some locations, i just want to briefly tell you of how the Lebou team ministers here in Senegal. ministry everywhere is different and depends on history of christian mission work, the dominant religion, etc, etc. we believe the best and most effective way to reach the Lebou is to build strong relationships with them, letting them see Christ living within us..to see how different and joyful we are. remember they are muslim, but also still practice their tribal religions. God is nonetheless calling many Lebou to Him. you may think slowly, but there is no doubt that daily Lebou are touched by God. It is our prayer that through relationships that we build, we may better share the Lord's salvation with the desperate Lebou people. Today i noticed many more people praying than i have in the past (five prayers a day in Islam). It means that they are seeking something... pray that they will find our one, true God!!!

also we were taught a way to use the Quran as a bridge to sharing Christ with the Lebou Muslims...it is a great way for you to introduce the Bible and Christ as Savior, not as a lesser prophet. Very interesting and eager to learn more about this.

also taking Joshua as our example for praying down satan's walls around yoff. Joshua 6. please pray with us from where you are!
