After service God gave me the opportunity to not only speak life into someone but to lead an exchange student to say YES to a relationship with Jesus Christ. Sayaka is from Japan and had just arrived to New Zealand on Thursday. Her host family have been members of Change Point for 20 years. God led me right to Sayaka in conversation about my Japanese friend Sakura. I asked if she were a Christian and when she told me no I simply told her “You can’t live for yourself.” Her host family had just given her an English/Japanese Bible. I was able to show her John 3:16 and explain that God created her for a purpose. She was so receiving of the gospel and said she wanted more. I prayed with her as she asked God in Japanese to come into her heart.
My team at our worksite!!! We have been preparing a map for the Call for All…more stories to come!!!
Please pray for Sayaka as her parents are not Christians. Please also pray for her host family that they will be able to disciple her in her stay of New Zealand. God is doing great things in New Zealand. Please keep reading for more.
