Orthodox Family Hears about Jesus

The Bible says in John 4:37, “For in this case the saying is true, ‘One sows, and another reaps.’” Staff member Greg S. recently saw this verse in action when he ran into Lydia* at the grocery store. She recognized Greg because he had done a Messiah in the Passover presentation at her church last spring. She told Greg that the day after he spoke at her church, she was invited to her Orthodox supervisor’s Passover Seder.

Lydia shared the Gospel truths that she had learned at the Messiah in the Passover presentation. Lydia even had the chutzpah (Yiddish for “nerve”) to offer the family some evangelistic literature that she had picked up at the presentation. Lydia said, “The family was literally stunned. They were speechless, so they kept on reading the Hebrew liturgy.” Please pray for this family, that the Gospel seeds will take root!
