North Africa/Middle East Refugees in the Diaspora

While walking from a store to the refugee camp where he lives, Bilal recognized someone who was looking for something in their parked car. “Maybe this is my chance!” he thought. Bilal often saw different volunteers who came to the camp each week, even a few who could speak his heart language; however, he hadn’t felt comfortable enough to approach anyone in case others might overhear. After a year of trying unsuccessfully to ask discreetly where he might find a copy of the Word in his new country, he learned that this person had an extra copy in their car. Not only was it in his heart language, but it was the very same one that he’d previously been given by a friend who’d started reading with him in his homeland before he had to leave it behind! Bilal made plans to see that person the next day to talk more. Praise the Father for the ways He brings people together! Pray that all those seeking knowledge of Him will find people with answers from the Bible. Pray for local believers to be ready “in season and out of season” (2 Timothy 4:2 ESV) to respond to the way the Spirit is moving in people’s hearts.
