Reyhan* had always been intrigued by the Christian message, but he couldn’t wrap his mind around Jesus as his Savior. Knowing he was curious, one of his friends—an East-West partner—asked him for a favor one day … to translate for an East-West short-term mission trip team
The partner hoped and prayed that God would soften Reyhan’s heart toward Jesus as he translated His message of salvation during the weeklong trip.
And God—in His perfect timing—answered the partner’s request.
That week of translating the gospel impacted Reyhan, but it took a series of events—including terror attacks in Paris—for Reyhan to finally choose to follow Jesus.
He is now a part of East-West national team, and meets with people searching for spiritual truth.
