People of the Arid Triangle, North Africa

About six months ago, Younes and his family moved from a small town in the countryside to a city. With an interest in learning another language, he attended a party in the fall at a local language center, where he met a believer who spoke that other language. With the help of a translation app on a cell phone, the believer began sharing the gospel with him via text. Later that week, Younes and his sister met with the believer and two of her friends who are also believers, one of whom speaks the local language. Younes and his sister both heard the gospel and expressed an interest in reading more of the New Testament. Since then, he has agreed to continue meeting in order to study the Bible together. Pray that Younes will follow through on his agreement to study the Bible. Ask that his eyes will be opened and his heart will be renewed as he reads the truth about who Jesus is. Pray that the Lord will make himself known to Younes and that through him, his whole family will experience the redemption that comes only through Christ.
