The following e-mail report was received from Pastor Osmond Owusu
who heads up the team in Ghana. All we've changed is to blank out
the names of the villages concerned as working in Muslim outreach
can be very volatile at times.
'Dear Stewart,
greetings to you in the name that is above every name. We wish to
thank you for all the support sent to us to enable us go on with the
Muslim Outreach work.
On the 30th of July 2008, three Muslim Evangelist who have all been
receiving sponsorship from SICM over the years embarked on a journey
to a village called (name withheld) in the Ashanti region in Kumasi
to evangelise to the Muslim community.We stayed at the house of one
of our converts at (name withheld). In the morning, we went on a house
to house evangelism. They all came back with stories which was a very
big door to help us evangelise.
Most of
the people did not have money to register for National Health Insurance,
which was only £8 per year. We were able to pay for ten people
the next day and out of the ten we can boldly say that five of them
have given their lives to Jesus. Two of them came to Accra with me
yesterday to start learning new skills training in carpentry as well
as hairdressing.
Next week ,we will be visiting another community made of Muslims as
well and we need your support as well in prayer that God will give
us another door to win more souls. We appreciate all your support
and we wish to say a big thank you and we hope you will continue to
support us to carry out this good work.
God bless you.'
