Although our host in this Muslim-dominated country has some horrific stories to share about his life as a Christian convert from the majority religion – tales of rejection, persecution, torture, and attempts against his life – we found that our stay in his country was totally safe with total liberty to speak freely and ministry openly within the Christian population.
Our ministry time began with the book launch of Peggy’s No Longer Bound book – the second one to be translated into the national language. The event drew a capacity crowd of pastors and leaders from all the churches in the area. Everyone was given a free copy of book and was encouraged to purchase copies to distribute among their congregations. The following morning, we had the opportunity to spend some time encouraging a team of evangelists who are aggressively sharing the gospel throughout the nation, targeting a million souls each year. These frontline evangelists realize that they are risking their lives to share the gospel outside the Christian community – and several of their comrades have already suffered martyrdom. We discovered that they have been reading the two of Delron’s books that are available in their language – Maximum Impact and People Who Make a Difference. Our third stop in the country took us the graduation of a Bible college where over five hundred pastors and leaders came together and were joined by seventeen hundred others on social media to witness as thirty-five graduates received their degrees and were launched into their ministries. We were please to learn that Maximum Impact is part of the curriculum that they had covered during their studies. The following evening Peggy and Linda hosted a women’s meeting which drew a capacity crowd of close to five hundred women. Our ministry in this nation ended with four church services in three different churches. We were extremely humbled at each meeting throughout our time in the country as the congregations gave us gorgeous bouquets of flowers and elaborate flower garlands – very expensive gifts from people who earn very small wages as day laborers.
