I am continually amazed and humbled by this sweet woman. In case you have forgotten Sally is an illiterate cousin woman, the second wife to an ageing husband, mother of two children, and bold sharer of the good news!
A few months ago Sally was walking near her house and met a young girl, Queenie, who was alone and crying. Queenie came to our city looking for a job but ran out of money before she could find a job and had no place to stay. Sally, who has very little, invited Queenie to her home and offered her whatever she had. She also told Queenie that she would tell her about the one who died for her sins!
-please take a minute for this to soak in. A woman who survives on very little, especially by western standards, invited another woman to come and share her home and her food and her Savior. When was the last time I was so giving?
Queenie did go to Sally's and stayed for a little over a month. During that time Sally faithfully shared all she knew, gave her a copy of the Word to read, and showed her two films about JC's life. Through all these things Queenie understood her desperate need for a Savior and trusted in JC!!
Just wait, it gets better!
Queenie was ready to be dunked last month. My teammates and I were able to watch as Sally ( who I dunked last year) dunked Queenie!! It was one of the most amazing and precious moments of my life!
We were able to share the Lrd's supper with our two national partners and a new brother and sister!
Ok…it gets EVEN better!
Queenie returned to her city last month and then came back to visit a few weeks later for a short visit. She also brought 2 ladies who had believed and also been dunked!
Please lift up Queenie as she is in a different state. We need to wisdom as to how to connect her to others so she can be encouraged and discipled. Ask the Father to continue to give her boldness. Thank the Father for both Sally and Queenie and there faithfulness!
