Here is the story of a man in the United Arab Emirates who was cared for by a loving neighbor and introduced to the forgiving grace of Jesus.

Michael was a man with many friends but all were leading him down dark paths. His neighbor, who is a Believer and goes to church, started praying for him and even gave him a Bible. After a while, she noticed that he would come home very late and drunk. So, she decided to visit him with her pastor [as part of an N2N partnership] and talk. After much discussion, they knew that he was in a bad situation that was causing him problems. He no longer wanted to be with his friends but he didn’t have the courage to leave them. After the pastor prayed for him, he cried a lot and understood that if he didn’t change his life he was going to lose all that he had built.

He finally gave his heart to Jesus a few months later and ever since has been growing in Christ and walking in faith!
