Fishing Lessons- Brother Yun

God wants all Christians to be fishers of men. The world is in a desperate, destructive mess. Nations wage war on each other, and every day people inflict unmentionable cruelty on one another. If we have Jesus in our hearts, we are called to be fishermen, regardless of our background, education or economic position. Some individuals may be more gifted at fishing than we are, but Jesus is looking for those like Peter, James, and John. They knew they were unworthy sinners, yet they were willing to trade their weakness for God’s strength and their stained garments for robes of righteousness.

The apostles were largely uneducated, rough young men, yet God used them to shake the world with the gospel. If God was able to use them in such a way, we can never excuse ourselves from the personal responsibility we have to reach out to the lost. We trick ourselves, and maybe even other people, but we can never deceive the Lord. Each Christian will one day give an account of the way they used, or didn’t use, the talents God gave them.

Now is the time for us to commit ourselves fully to the cause of God, without reservation. If you do this, you will not fail to experience the blessing and presence of God in a sweet and powerful way.

Finishing SA

Our team has just finished a wonderful week of sharing the life-changing message of Jesus Christ in high schools in South Africa. We have been blessed to speak in more than 20 schools with over 15,000 precious students and have seen many of these precious souls make the commitment to follow Christ as Lord and Savior. Also, thanks to the help of Gideons International in South Africa, we have been able to distribute more than 6,000 New Testaments in these schools. Thank you so much for your continued prayer and support during this mission. We have two more evening outreaches, then it will be time to begin getting ready to head back to the states.

Helping hand

Our team has had an amazing first two days in schools here in South Africa. We have already been blessed to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with more than 6,000 students and teachers and we are already receiving reports of lives being changed. Just look at this wonderful example of a student helping his friend to raise his hand and commit his life to Christ!

In South Africa

Our team had a great weekend evangelism training conference with Apostolic Faith Mission church here in South Africa. We have just picked up about 4,000 Gideon Bibles and are ready to distribute them this week along with sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ with more than 10,000 precious souls in schools.

Finishing

Our Youth Education Strategies team has had a wonderful time sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ in schools in the Copperbelt region of Zambia. This week, we have spoken in 12 schools with over 6,000 precious souls and have seen many young people commit their lives to Christ as Lord and Savior. Thank you so much for praying for YES as we have completed our mission in Zambia! Tomorrow, I am taking the bus back to Lusaka, and then Saturday I begin the long journey back to the states. I am already looking forward to the next time God will bless our ministry with the opportunity to return to Zambia!

One more week

Wow, what an absolutely amazing second week of ministry our Youth Education Strategies team has had in Lusaka, Zambia! We were blessed to share the life-changing message of Jesus Christ in 16 schools with 12,000 students and teaching staff and have been blessed to see more than 7,500 professions of faith in Christ alone as Lord and Savior. We have had some great laughs (Like in this photo!), and we have had some wonderfully touching moments in Lusaka, but it is time to begin the next phase of our mission. I am resting comfortably this Sunday afternoon in the mining area of Zambia known as the Copperbelt, in the city of Chililabombwe, getting ready to begin our final week sharing the Good News in schools.

Please join YES in prayer for open doors for ministry and for the strength required to finish this mission strongly. Thanks so much!

Halfway through Zambia

At the halfway point of our mission in Zambia, our Youth Education Strategies team is still going strong and boldly proclaiming the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ. In the last three days, our team has been blessed to share the Good News in 9 schools with 6,000 students and staff! So far, we have already been able to share the life-changing message of Jesus Christ with over 14,000 wonderful people. Please join YES in prayer for God to use our team mightily here in Lusaka, Zambia
