Zoom Call

Several other U workers are also pleasantly placed back in Canada for the time being. In order to be an encouragement to each other, we have started to have regular Zoom calls. These times also allow us to pray together for our people group and related concerns. In the past few months, a shipment of U Bibles had to quickly get moved from their storage location. The warehouse in which they were stored was located in a city that has become very heated by government pressure. Those responsible for keeping them knew they might easily get caught and the books might be confiscated or destroyed. We have seen these prayers answered as a new storage facility was secured in the States and the books are in transit now. 

On other evenings, workers have shared their fears about re-engaging the U diaspora community in Canada because they are not overly mindful of social distancing and other health guidelines. My co-workers worry about the risk that presents to their own elderly and vulnerable family members. It is good to spend our call time seeking His wisdom. Recently, we also rejoiced with one guy in Canada who has not only been meeting with U immigrants, but saw two of them come to faith and decided to be baptized. Praise God that the work is continuing.
