It is fascinating to see how God prepares the hearts of seekers and then helps them find a community that can minister to their needs. When Sabita came searching, CHE was there ready to help. Sabita\u2019s story is powerful<\/strong>, and a witness to how God moves <\/strong>and orchestrates the circumstances to perform His miracles. Here is her story:<\/p>\n

She was a young woman dissatisfied with her traditional religion and rituals.\u00a0 Walking into a church one day, Sabita committed her life to Jesus Christ right there.\u00a0 \u201cI was just ready. God had prepared me.\u201d<\/em> she declared.<\/p>\n

Some years later she moved with her husband to his family farm high in the mountains.\u00a0 In her search for believers she was told, \u201cThere may be some, possibly, several ridges and valleys over<\/em>.\u201d\u00a0 Setting out early one Sunday morning, she trekk\"\"<\/a>ed for over two hours before finding them.\u00a0 \u201cHow delightful to sing God\u2019s praises and hear His Word with others again,<\/em>\u201d was her joyful remark.\u00a0 Disease prevention and good nutrition were being taught there as well \u2013 it was her first exposure to Community Health Evangelism (CHE). The next week and the weeks following, she hiked the ridges, occasionally taking her teenaged son.\u00a0 \u201cMy heart was being refreshed<\/em>. The walk was no sacrifice.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

That was April 2023.\u00a0 Two months later a group of CHE young people from that \u201cover the ridges church\u201d helped her build a crude but adequate bamboo worship shelter.\u00a0 How thrilled she was!\u00a0 The challenge was to \u201cfill this structure\u201d with neighboring farmer families.\u00a0 As she shared, and the CHE team taught CHE lessons in the community, people started coming to the services to hear more\u2026and, believing in Jesus.<\/p>\n

Sabita\u2019s teenaged son was already quite knowledgeable in the Bible and mature in his faith. However, the CHE team arranged a 6-month Bible course for him. Now, at 16, he leads the service when the assigned pastor\/CHE trainer cannot come.<\/p>\n

Recently, when visitors from Medical Ambassadors International\u2019s regional office trekked for two hours up the steep slope to visit, the CHE team excitedly updated them:\u00a0 Of the 11 families in this small village, nine had already committed their lives to Jesus, because of Sabita and her family\u2019s witness.\u00a0 We praise God for working in Sabita\u2019s life and for her enthusiasm and tenacious heart, opening doors for the Gospel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
