(mah-LONG) – Living in a Malong community is spiritually and physically difficult for cross-cultural workers. Learning a new language and culture in a place that is surrounded by darkness can wear down a person’s emotional strength. Give praise for Rebecca’s perseverance in the midst of difficult situations, remembering her calling and the reason she is living among lost people. Eight women from her Bible study proclaimed a transforming decision last month! This has brought great joy to Rebecca as she continues to spend time weekly helping these eight women learn more about the decision they have made to follow the true God. Pray for a deepening of faith and for more Malong people to respond to the life-changing message of the gospel. Pray for Rebecca to continue to persevere on difficult days as she lives among people who desperately need to hear and know of real hope.
