Beautiful news today from our Life Center in Middle East! Over 1,000 patients have come through our medical clinic since we opened our doors in August. Praise God with us!
Here is what our field partner had to say:
“Visits to our clinics and referrals to specialists have contributed to addressing the medical needs of those who typically cannot afford medical care. This news quickly spread to other medical professionals who expressed their enthusiasm for our project and their desire to collaborate with us within their clinics in the future.
As our clinics are becoming more established and are providing more practical help to thousands of people in their communities, it has opened more doors to share the Gospel to these thousands of mostly Muslim refugees that would never have heard the Gospel under normal circumstances. We are so thankful for these opportunities to be Christ’s extended hands in both a practical and spiritual way.
Recently one of our clinic assistants (who is from a Muslim background) said she was impressed with everything that the clinic offered without regard to their religious background. She was so intrigued by this. She asked, why? From this encounter, we were able to tell her about Jesus. She then started researching and studying the Bible on her own in secret whenever she could, and we supported her and answered any questions she had. By the grace of God, she has now accepted Jesus as her Lord and Savior! She always says, “I was not happy before. I never slept smiling like this until I accepted Jesus and started talking to Him every night.”
Our medical Life Center is a very effective ministry model. We believe that by serving people in practical ways, we are showing the love of Christ—this results in openness to the Gospel in places that have previously been closed off from the faith.
Please join us in praying for these believers and healthcare workers at the Open Eyes Life Center in the Middle East.
