TESTIMONIALS
A series of poor choices and bad influences me down a wrong path, but in 2005, I accepted Jesus as my Savior while attending a Mission of Hope partner church in Bercy. Today, 14 years later, I am the pastor of that same church. I now spends my days leading Bible studies in Bercy, discipling young men, and working with Mission of Hope to meet the needs of my village. I attend Mission of Hope pastor trainings and receive mentoring at Mission of Hope every week to continue to grow as a pastor and leader.
YVES OSSE
At the Technical School, a young man in the Diesel Mechanics program missed a week of classes to attend a voodoo ceremony with his family. When he returned to school and to Pastor Kenan’s Bible class, he learned about the grace of God through Jesus Christ. He was very attentive. After class, he told the pastor, "I would like to accept Jesus as my Savior. I believe in Him, but if I have to openly accept Jesus, I must also leave my parents’ home.” Please pray for protection and boldness for this young man as he steps out in faith.
As the Church Expansion Coordinator, I have seen firsthand how God is transforming villages. In my own village, so many children did not go to school. Many people were very sick with no access to medical care. There was not much hope. Now, God is using Mission of Hope to help change the village. I see children getting a good education. I see clean water. Mobile medical clinics are saving lives. And it is all done through the local church, so people are hearing about Jesus and getting saved.
