Sh Br 38: Beloved Update

Shiite Muslims – a people God is pursuing to be Jesus’ Bride

The news raced through the whole town, and many believed in the Lord.
Acts 9:42 NLT

This was the news that raced through the whole town of Joppa long ago:
"Peter has raised young Tabitha from the dead!"

We don't have that particular kind of news to share with you in this special update today, dear friend of His Shiite Bride, but we do have something else to tell you: many Muslim women are hearing that Jesus is a miracle worker, and the news is racing through the whole town and beyond!

Remember the booklet called "Beloved Women of God" that you've been praying would help Shiite women discover they are beloved women of God? As you know, each page of this booklet features a simple New Testament story in Arabic showing how Jesus interacted with women; hundreds of copies were given out over the past couple of weeks as part of a Mother's Day celebration in the Middle East.

Zeina called us a few days ago and said that the Muslim owner of the print shop that printed the "Beloved" booklets wants to print MORE copies because of the on-going demand for the booklet, and - get this - he does not want to charge Zeina!

This is part of the "give and take" we have in this society, but isn't it wonderful that the Muslim owner of the print shop wants to print more of the "Beloved" booklets? He even wants his daughter to get forty copies so she can share the booklet with more of her friends!

Thank God that the good news of Jesus' miracles among women is racing through the whole town through this little booklet. Pray that many will believe and begin to follow Jesus.

Pray that many more Arabic speaking women read and hear these stories of Jesus' miracles among women, and pray they come to know that they, too, are Beloved Women of God.

Pray for Zeina to continue to have God's favor and blessing with the owner of this print shop, her family, and other people in her life.

Pray for all the Muslim girls and women who are starting to hear the Shepherd's voice, and ask Him to bring many of them into His sheepfold! (John 10:16)
