(WAH-soo-loo) – For a number of years, Wassulu workers have asked you to pray for Pastor Paul as he marks his birthday on May 18. This year, he will turn 72. You may recall that Paul, of Wassulu ancestry himself, was delighted to serve as a worker at the beginning of the work. Born into a Muslim family who strictly adhered to its practices, Paul became a follower of Christ as an adult while in a worker-led English as a Second Language (ESL) class. He now joyfully shares the good news with all who will listen! Because of his ancestry being rooted in Islam, Paul is a strong and bold evangelist among Muslims. In February of this year, he received a French-language study Bible–a precious resource in a place like Mali–during a pastoral training conference. He is using his new Bible for personal study but is also taking it to the mosque nearest his home as he talks with the elders there. Pray that God will work through Paul as he shares the thread of redemption so clearly laid out through the Word, leading to the Redeemer, Jesus Christ. Pray for the well-being of Paul and his family in all ways.
