Thanks for your Prayers!

Dear Prayer Warriors!

Again your prayers gave us "air supremacy" and made way for our "ground troops" to share the love of Jesus with our Muslim friends in Dearborn. It was not as cold as expected, there had been light snow most of the day and we arrived at night to meet with about 200 others to go Caroling to our neighbors in the predominately Muslim area.

Our Nations Light team of 28 people from both Ohio and Michigan had the opportunity to pray at 15 homes. We called this "extreme prayer walking"!

We would knock the door, sing a carol and ask if the family would likeprayer for anything. We were able to pray at every home for God's blessing on the family, for happiness or the children's education. Then we left a gift bag with candy and testimonies in Arabic of Muslims meeting Christ and sang,' We wish you a merry Christmas and a happy New Year!'

Children in upstairs windows listened and identified with Rosalind our little Mexican girl, who looked just like them, and she gave them gift bags!

We were invited into Sandy's home. She had just moved from California and her Lebanese mother, in traditional dress, was visibly touched when Sue prayedfor her in the loss of her daughter. She then offered us some food from the well spread table in the front room.

After about two hours caroling, as we were preparing to return to the church, we met a man and his two sons who had come from their home to see what we were doing. We sang to him in the street and in broken English he explained that he had just been in America two months. He told us how his 12 year old son had been kidnapped by an Osama gang in Iraq. He had to get a lot of money to buy his son's release. He said the walls were splattered in blood. The son was very happy to be safe and in school in America! When asked what they would like a prayer of blessing for, the father said,..' but I am Muslim.' Syd responded,' ...but don't Muslims need blessing too?' He laughed and agreed and we prayed together.

We came back to join the other Carolers for refreshments and to report back. We knew that you our prayer partners had been supporting us. The doors where literally opened to us! We also discovered that one lady regularly 'prayer walked' the street we visited! When we shared our testimonies she was thrilled and praised the Lord.

Please continue to pray for the gifts we left, that the Holy Spirit will nurture the seeds of love and salvation we deposited and that these special guests, who have come to our nation will get to know Christ, the Savior of the World. '....He determined the ...exact places where they should live...so that men would seek Him and find him...'Acts 17:26,27.
