“Thank you to everyone who has been praying for us in December during this last trip!” missionary explorer Stephen Farrell said. “Your prayers truly matter and make a difference. I was looking back over our prayer requests from last month when we asked for specific prayerful intervention for all those whom Satan was blinding. We saw most of our fruitful or engaged gospel conversations happen after we shared those prayer requests. Thank you for interceding on behalf of the lost! Lily and I continue to share the gospel. We continue to work the soil and sow seeds of the gospel for other IMB teams to follow up and reap the fruit. We shared the gospel with 45 people over the course of this trip. May God, whose word never returns void, continue to cause growth in the area! Please continue to pray for the six believers we met. We will give their information to the closest IMB team so that they can begin reaching out and discipling them. Thank you all again for all your support!”
