We're so grateful for BJ's leadership and participation on this MFM team to Bogotá! Praise the Lord for barriers coming down and hearts softening to the Gospel!
Recently, during a short-term mission trip in Colombia, OMS missionary BJ Williamson and his team approached a man on a motorcycle, who was wearing a full mask and helmet, to share the Good News of Jesus. BJ admits he was a little scared, but the man agreed to listen to BJ’s testimony. He shared about his broken family growing up and how he was hopeless until he learned about Jesus. The man pulled his helmet up a bit, showing he wanted to hear more.
BJ then began sharing the Evangecube, and the helmet came off. BJ got to the Gospel message, saying, “But Jesus didn’t stay inside the tomb, just like he is not still on the cross, he is not still in the tomb.” The man on the motorcycle pulled his face covering down under his chin. BJ shared, “This was significant to me as I realized he was slowly removing the barriers.” BJ silently prayed that God would remove the barriers in his heart.
BJ continued to share about the hope of Jesus, and tears welled in the man’s eyes. BJ asked if he wanted to put his faith in Jesus alone. He said yes! As they prayed, they cried. BJ learned more of his story. Now, we all pray that the church team in Bogota follows up and helps him get connected so he can grow and share his story with others.
