Sharing the Hope of Jesus
Posted Oct. 6, 2021
Join Yvette Moy for an evening of fellowship and mission on Saturday, October 23rd, from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm, at St. John's Fellowship Hall. The featured speaker is Ali Reza, who was born into a Muslim family in the Islamic Republic of Iran. One of his earliest memories is of his mom and dad hurrying the entire family into the basement as Saddam Hussein bombed his hometown. At a young age, Ali's family left Iran and immigrated to America, settling in New York.
Learn more about Ali's upbringing and how God orchestrated a divine conspiracy of many witnesses in his life to bring him to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Ali's testimony is a tale of conquering love and Jesus' relentless pursuit for the lost.
