In April I was on mission in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea, which is the capital city on an island off the coast of Africa. I was there 3 1/2 weeks sharing the gospel in homes, on the street and in the ghetto. We saw many call upon Christ for salvation. I also had the privilege of providing a seminar for follow up ministry with new believers on 2 Saturdays. I would take a morning walk along the ocean and an evening walk when the skies were filled with bats. On my final day as I walked I asked the Lord to bless that walk and make it special for me. A young man came up and walked with me and spoke English with me (they speak Spanish there). I told him I was a missionary there teaching the Bible and preaching the gospel. He said, “Will you tell it to me?” I shared the gospel with him and emphasized his need to be saved. He started calling out to Jesus to save him. We prayed as we walked and then I shared assurance verses with him. He said, “You’ve really opened my mind!” He began thanking me repeatedly and then he turned and was gone. God certainly blessed my walk that day with such a joyful privilege!
