Back into the schools...
Last week we were back giving presentations into the schools in Šaľa... We were invited to give presentations to the students of one school on the subject of drugs. Noro, who works with the organisation ACET in Nové Zámky, joined me talked about his experience of drugs. He had been addicted to several hard drugs which have led him into a life of homelessness, prison, crime, drug dealing and prostitution. The students were fascinated to hear his story.
While we state that ACET is a Christian organisation, we are careful not to evangelise in the schools and to simply deliver the presentation that they have asked for. However, on this occasion the teacher was so fascinated with Noro's story that she asked him to explain how he got off the drugs and out of that lifestyle. Noro stated that it was because of a personal encounter that he had had with God. The students and the teachers all wanted to know more, which allowed Noro to freely give his testimony. It was a very powerful moment and seemed to be perfectly orchestrated by God. We later discovered that the teacher was so interested because several of the close people around her were also sufferening as a result of the effects of drugs.
We believe that God opens these doors of witness as a direct result of prayer. We want to thank you for praying for this ministry.
