(KON-ah-kree) – “In February, you were asked to pray for Colt, a sent-out one from Benin who’d be joining the harvest work in Conakry, Guinea,” workers write. “After months of waiting, praying, and planning, Colt finally arrived in April. Praise God! However, his family won’t be able to join him until September. He has been in Conakry for two months now, and God is using him to spread the gospel and plant seeds of hope among Guinean university students almost daily. In fact, we thank God for a recent Fulani man, Kevin, who chose to follow Christ after Colt shared the hope of the gospel with him. The Fulani are almost all Muslim and associate being Muslim with being Fulani. Kevin heard the gospel and counted the cost of abandonment by his family if he chose to follow, and he chose to follow. Praise God! Colt and Kevin have begun studying Scripture together each week. Pray that the roots of Kevin’s faith will grow deep, that he’ll stand firm in the face of persecution, and that he’ll find community within a local body of Christ. Pray for Colt as he perseveres as a sent-out one, awaiting the arrival of his family in September.”
