The Resurrected Jesus Never Stops Working!

"On the street corners and in stinking bin yards He turns up, seeking the lost and inviting us to be part of it with Him.” ~ Judy*, Interserve Partner

“The invisible yet overpowering scent of weed invaded my kitchen, and I knew that Afnan* and his friends were at their post, slouching and coughing on the crumbling wall nearby.

A bright-eyed, younger Afnan came to every church event until lostness and shame captured the boy he was.
Thinking quickly, I used the excuse of needing help to bin some heavy rubbish bags to engage with Afnan. ‘How is everyone in church?’ he asked quite openly. ‘I remember all we heard about Jesus there.’

For nearly a year I kept a brand-new, pristine Bible in my house. People would ask, ‘Have you given that young man his Bible yet?’ but the answer was always, ‘No.’ Afnan had vanished.

One sunny afternoon, I turned a corner and bumped headlong into Afnan. After the usual pleasantries, I told him, rather nervously I admit, about the Bible awaiting him in my cupboard.

His face lit up! ‘Oh…I have been reading the Bible online. Could I ask you what Jesus meant when he said this…er…in Matthew 20…?’

The resurrected Jesus never stops working! On the street corners and in stinking bin yards He turns up, seeking the lost and inviting us to be part of it with Him.” ~ a true story told by Judy*, an Interserve Partner.

Light shining in cave

The work of Interserve depends on your support to create opportunities for Jesus to speak into the lives of the lost, weary and burdened; people like Afnan, who urgently need to feel Jesus’ arm around his shoulder and know the hope of the resurrection for today and for eternity.

Your support enables the gospel to go out to the ends of the earth. In the most remote parts of Asia, Jesus is breathing life into desperate situations, but as people are increasingly on the move, countless opportunities present themselves on our doorstep too. Making disciples of all nations has never been so within our reach, and never more needed than now.

Your partnership is precious and vital to seeing the Great Commission fulfilled; will you support this Kingdom vision today?

Yes! I want to share the good news!
