“He said he believed that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God…”
Pastor Andres Rodriguez serves in the town of Bagaces, Costa Rica. Last year, he and his church set out to put a Bible in every house in their town.
This endeavor was captured in HeartCry’s film “In Every House.” Recently, Andres shared an encouraging update from their ongoing ministry efforts in Bagaces.
He writes:
“A recent visitor to our church is a 17-year-old young man we met while distributing Bibles house to house. After knocking several times at one house and receiving no answer, we moved on to the next.
While we were preaching the gospel there, we saw that someone had arrived at the first house. We went back and knocked again. This time, a young man opened the door.
We asked if we could share a message with him about God and the Bible, and he agreed. We asked if he had ever heard the gospel before, and he said no. He had never attended any church.
As we shared with him, he listened intently. When we asked if he believed what he had heard, he said yes. He said he believed that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that only through faith in Him can one be saved.
He acknowledged his sins and recognized his need for God’s mercy. He did not have a Bible, so we gave him one and invited him to church. The following Lord’s Day, he attended Sunday School and stayed for the worship service. Afterward, he said he wanted to keep coming.
We thank God that He has called us to proclaim the glorious gospel of salvation in Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory.”
