Here’s some news of a life being changed, from one of our workers in the North Asia region:

An Australian pastor and I conducted a leadership seminar for urban pastors and workers in a large city. On the last night we had a Q&A time. We were told that a number of the leaders had invited unsaved friends. I gave an altar call at the end of the Q&A and 6 people responded.
As I was leading them in prayer, one of the ladies who came forward raised her hand and asked if she could ask a question. She asked “If I become a Christian, will my family be cursed and bad things happen to them?”. I said “No, they will be blessed. However, that doesn’t mean all your family will be happy about your decision”. She then asked “If I become a Christian can I still burn hell money for my ancestors? My mother was visited by her dead grandfather recently and he asked her to burn hell money to help him. After she burned the hell money she was not bothered by her grandfather again.”
I explained that the Bible teaches us to honour our parents and our ancestors, but there were other ways that she could show respect and honour to her ancestors than by burning hell money. She seemed satisfied with the answers and then made a sincere commitment to Christ.
We concluded by laying hands on the new converts as well as all the leaders. It was a powerful time and probably the most unusual altar call I have given!
