In an email dated July 29/2018, Aniefiok Akpan wrote, “On July 16, I sent a prayer request asking you to pray for a young man named Itoro, a drug addict and atheist we were trying to bring to Christ. Thank you for your prayers.
“Itoro has studied and worshiped with us for three weeks now. Just today, he obeyed the gospel after listening to the sermon I preached at the campus church at Uruk Otong. He was baptized in a stream along Abak road.
“His name is Itoro Sunday Okon. He is a native of one of the villages near Uruk Otong. He lives close to our sister Comfort David Johnson. Sister Comfort hires a commercial motor cyclist to bring her to Uruk Otong for worship services, Bible studies, and prayer meetings. Now, she is paying the transport fare both for herself and Itoro to attend church activities at Uruk Otong.
“Fortunately, they live are in one of the four villages where we plan to plant a new church next year. We have received 1,000 copies of the WEI Introductory Lessons in preparation for the area-wide evangelism ministry using WEISOM students.”
Aniefiok is still looking for a church to sponsor the WEISOM outreach ministry. God is blessing this school with a rich harvest of souls.
