Shiite Muslims – a people God is pursuing to be Jesus’ Bride
There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all.
I Cor. 12:4-6 NKJV
Every two weeks we send you a story about what God is doing among Shiites, and together, we pray for Shiites. Today, dear friend of His Shiite Bride, we have something different for you.
We want to invite you to participate in three amazing days to be Jesus' salt and light among Shiite families June 13-15, 2008. Friends of ours with a group called Impact International plan and carry out family friendly events for Shiite families and others in Dearborn, Michigan, just outside Detroit, every Father's Day weekend, as part of an annual Arab Festival. They need people like you to come and help!
Whether you start praying for this event now (and we want you to do that!) or you begin making plans to go and help, you won't regret joining God among Shiites in this special way.
People are needed next summer who will help:
Set up and clean up
Work in the children's tent to oversee crafts and talk with kids Work in the parking lots Assist Festival leadership Conduct surveys Serve on the hospitality team Work at the snow cone booth Do roaming activities like making balloon animals, doing illusions, etc.
This is a tangible opportunity for you, Friend of His Shiite Bride, to be Jesus' hands and feet among Shiites, to serve their community, respect their culture, and exchange friendship. Will you say yes to our invitation?
Impact International provides training and orientation, so even if our invitation seems daunting to you now, please ask God if He wants to send you to Dearborn to join Him among precious Shiites there.
For more information, visit Impact International's website at: http://www.impactint.net. Email our friend, Mike, the director of Impact International, if you can go and help: mike@impactint.net. Also, take a look at this 3 minute video on YouTube showing Impact International helping at last year's Dearborn Festival: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vr-8_O-dKHU
Tell your friends! Begin praying with us that next Father's Day Weekend many Shiite families in Dearborn will come to know our Good Shepherd.
May He use us, His Body, with all our diverse gifts, ministries, and activities, to bring blessing and hope to Shiites wherever they are - whether it is in Dearborn, Los Angeles, Sao Paolo, Beirut, Damascus, Baghdad, or Tehran - wherever, whenever, may we be Jesus' hands and feet to them.
