Highs and Lows
“Can I speak to you in private?” This was Robert’s question to one of our missionaries in Scotland.
Following the conversation, Robert left completely different — countenance lifted, full of the Holy Spirit and hope.
But what he shared echoes the plight of so many Christian students in that nation and all of Great Britain.
He had not found a single other Christian on his campus, despite concerted efforts to do so.

In tears, Robert shared how lonely he was at university and missing the support of his youth group back home.
Our missionary encouraged Robert in his walk with the Lord and gave guidance on being light in his dark environment.
Because of you, Robert had a person to talk with and now has the support needed to return to school and make a different on his campus for Christ.

Your support of discipleship groups is having big impact throughout North Africa and the Middle East, despite this setback.
-
- Groups are growing in size and number
- Lives are transforming through study of God’s Word
- Evangelistic zeal is increasing
Yet this is the harsh reality of advancing the Light of Christ in a dark world. A roller-coaster of great testimonies followed by disheartening news.
Your Prayers Are Needed
THANK YOU for taking light into darkness. Here are a few ways you can be praying right now:
- Upcoming evangelism in Scotland, Mexico and Pakistan
- Human trafficking rescues in multiple countries
- Christian students to stand strong in faith and reach their campuses
- Persecuted believers, their families and those they lead
P.S. — We still have critical unmet needs for our North Africa conference happening this May. Your generous gift makes sure the light of Christ goes forth in this important territory.
