MALDIVES: Family Comes to Faith Through Strategic Evangelism Effort

Evangelism and discipleship in the restricted Maldives is done strategically, seeking out "people of peace" like Hamko.

A man and his family have come to Christ through strategic evangelism efforts of Christians in the Maldives. To avoid drawing persecution from Muslim fundamentalist groups in this restricted nation, Christian workers must be intentional about how and with whom they share the message of the Gospel, using creative approaches to discipleship. Hamko and his family are among those who have come to faith in Christ through one such effort.

• Pray that they will grow deeper in their faith and knowledge of Christ.

• Pray also that all Christians in the Maldives will grow in faith, stand for Christ in the face of Muslim opposition and be equipped by the Holy Spirit to further the Gospel in this island nation.
