The Harvest is Ripe

The Harvest Is Ripe

Hussein, 20, an Iraqi refugee, was baptized last August. Last month, he shared with the church his conversion experience. Hussein said that he experienced real Christian love when an American Christian family invited all his family members (7) upon their arrival to America to a Thanksgiving dinner. Attending Salam for more than three years, Jesus Christ spoke to his heart and Hussein found in Him peace and power to overcome sin.

Muneer, 25, Iranian, who has been attending Salam for a year, was baptized early October.
Nasser, 29, another Iranian, arrived to Chicagoland a month ago. Even though he was called to faith in Christ in Turkey where he first sought refuge, he had nobody who could disciple him there, because of the language barrier.
It was a very emotional scene when Nasser first arrived at Salam, knelt down at the Altar and prayed to Jesus. This is something he had been yearning for since he left Turkey. We have been providing discipleship and support for this young man who has no family and no friends but Jesus, who has been using Salam to feed him.
Nasser was baptized on October 27th.

Salam thanks you for your partnership in God's mission, and we pray that our work for Christ's Kingdom will give more fruits.

In Christ,
Rev. Hicham Chehab
Missionary, Pastor
