Can we talk? That was the text message from an international friend that returned to her home in Sri Lanka, about 5% Christian. She has had a number of health problems, and Mary Kay so wanted to help her. Previously she wasn’t interested in Jesus. But now she really wants someone to talk with, who can share the burden.

So we will send her some Internet resources, and videos. What she really needs is Jesus, Mary Kay told her. Then the friend told her how another friend recently gave her a “Jesus book” ! Wow!

And after Mary Kay prayed for her, over the phone, the friend said that the next time that they talk she wants to learn how to pray, since her religion doesn’t really do that. She wants to pray so that she can pray for Mary Kay!

Until she learns to pray, can you pray for her, and us too?

This way you can reach across the world, where in Sri Lanka “Christians were regularly subject to very violent attacks” yet now “the outlook is ominous for Sri Lanka’s Christians.” See Christian Today.
