Serving the Lord through the ministry of GRN is a
privilege. It is something that I,
Stacy, feel the Lord has called me to do.
But my primary function at GRN is to distribute recordings, mostly by
CD, to people in their heart languages.
I am often asked what happens after the CDs are handed out and I
typically reply, “Many times we will not know until we get to heaven.” There are many stories of people, and
sometimes whole villages coming to Christ from the recordings, but none that I know
I have been directly involved in. I feel
like the Lord has called me to do my part and remember that the growth is
His. So, when I got a nugget of encouragement
while serving in the Culiacan Project I was overjoyed. Juan, a Spanish pastor in the Los Angeles
area, shared a testimony with our team one morning. He told us of how he had gone to three
churches in California to share about the Culiacan ministry. He showed many pictures of the Project to the
congregation. Highlighted in the
pictures were people from the Culiacan Project teams serving in the camps. One of those people was a tall white man
named Kent Wistrand. Kent or Quentin as
they called him, was easy to remember as he looked quite differently from the
others. People shared how they came from
working the fields of Culiacan and Quentin and those teams shared the gospel in
their camps. Now, as a result, they were
plugged into Christian churches right in California. The encouragement here was to keep doing what
you are called to do. You may not see
the fruit now, but it will be a beautiful celebration when you do!
