With the help of my language tutor and her son Marvin, I have been learning how to share Jesus in Pidgin. I have been trying to learn some Bible verses in Pidgin and writing out how to share the Gospel. While rounding, I talked with a young lady who goes to church. I asked who Jesus was and found out she knew very little about Him - so I shared with her in Pidgin. I didn't know how to say a lot, but I shared the basic truth - We are sinners deserving hell (ples paia) and Jesus took our sins upon the cross and died in our place so that if we believe we will have eternal life. Like anywhere, I have come across people who say they are Christians or who go to church, but don't know the truth of the gospel. I was able to share in English with one such patient. Continue to pray that I would proclaim the gospel clearly with both actions and words. Pray that through the work of all the missionaries here, many will be able to give a testimony of God's work in their lives just as my Grandma did to a visiting pastor while at the hospital. Praise God for His faithfulness.
