Missionary Explorers, Project 3000

“My ministry partner and I are staying at a Seema’s house,” missionary explorer Lily Ferrell shared. “We shared the gospel and many other things about Jesus for over an hour with her. Seema had many questions and was very interested. She asked whether there was a caste system in Christianity like there is in Hinduism. We got to explain we are all made in the image of God and of equal value. She was surprised that God had no caste system! She was also surprised that the Bible is written in many languages. She is used to a system where only the llama (like a priest) can read the religious text. She was surprised that we have a relationship with God, and we don’t have to preform rituals such as washing hands, specific bowing, and using incense to please God. Please pray for Seema. She is afraid to read the Bible because she does not want to anger her gods. This happens many times where people are very interested and love hearing about Jesus but are too afraid to leave the religion of their family. Join us in praying that God will work in her heart and that she would want to read His Word with us.”
