Praise Report For Friday

First of all, thank you for joining in prayer for the event that took place this past Friday in Washington DC. I got an email update from one of the ministry leaders that traveled to DC. (Note: He asked that I not share his name or the name of the ministry. He is a dear brother, and they are definitely working "in the trenches.") Here is what he had to share...

"Thank you for praying for the outreach efforts at the Muslims’ Jummah prayer at the Washington, DC Mall on Friday, September 25th. The leaders of the event advertised that they expected 50,000+ Muslims to attend. The real number of Muslims who attended was between 3,000 and 8,000 at its height.

One person estimated that about 75% of all the Muslims that were on the mall on Friday were offered either the Jesus DVD, the More than Dreams DVD, or other Gospel materials (another person estimated that every Muslim there was offered Gospel materials at least once, and many had multiple opportunities). Our outreach director also thought that at least 60% of the Muslims accepted these Gospel materials, some with great joy and gladness. The More than Dreams DVD (www.morethandreams.org) was particularly well received, sometimes even sought after by Muslims. We, and those we worked with, distributed over 2,500 packets of materials.

Among those our team worked with, and others too, there were more than 90 believers reaching out to the Muslims at this event with an appropriate attitude. Beyond the passing out of Gospel materials, there were many good and Christ-centered conversations with Muslims. Many on our team ended their day extremely excited about how they felt God was at work through their efforts among the Muslims. Truly, God heard your prayers. THANK YOU FOR PRAYING!"

I am thankful for ministries, churches, and missionaries that are burdened to see Muslims come to know Christ! Let's continue to lift these ministries up to the Lord!
