Pray for Manfrid

Everyone, I just got done with talking with our neighbor Manfrid for about an hour or so. I started off just talking with him about whatever to continue to building a friendship with him. The whole idea is to be able to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with him. Well, guess what, within 10 minutes of our conversation I asked him IN GERMAN, "Wer ist Jesus für dich?" ("Who is Jesus for you?") And there I began to share with him in German and in English about the Love of my Savior Jesus Christ! It was absolutely amazing! For many reasons. 1) I have been wanting to share with him for quite a while now and we finally had enough time to talk with one another. 2) he was completely open to talk about it. 3) I was able to share with him about the Love of Christ in German! That is huge. Now I will be honest, I did a lot in English too, but alot of it was in German! I know that all of my German was not gramatically correct but at least this was a start! 4) Most important, I know that the Lord was really working in his heart in a radical way. So he did not accept the Lord right there in our hallway, but I was able to pull out my German Bible and show him many verses, which I had him read. He also said that he had a Bible in his apartment in Frankfurt (he is a truck driver, so he lives there during the week), and I challenged him to start reading it.
There is so much more that I could share about, but please begin to pray for him this week. Here is what I ask that you pray for him:
- Pray that the Holy Spirit will work in his heart and that he would surrender his life to Jesus
- Pray that he would begin to read his Bible this week
- Pray for next weekend, as I will follow up with him
- Pray that the Lord would overwehlm him with His love this week.

Thank You
