April 17
A man who spent his life in immoral and abusive activities was diagnosed with a tumor, and while he was in the hospital, members of a local church were his only visitors. Though he had been a nominal church attendee prior to his diagnosis, the compassion of these brothers and sisters led him fully to the Lord. Now, he is a ministry co-worker. The man is but one example of a life changed by Christ through small congregations that meet in secret to worship and encourage one another. Funds are needed to help evangelize the lost and train Christian leaders. Pray for the faithfulness of believers in places hostile to the gospel.
“And they said, ‘Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.’” (Acts 16:31)
