God Reaches Warriors

It all started very simply and without any expectations. There was a
small baptism service planned. When the group reached the water hole, there
were several moran (Samburu warriors) bathing. They agreed to leave so that
the baptism could take place as scheduled. Quietly, however, they watched
from the bushes. Afterward, they asked for and received an explanation as to
what was taking place. Then they asked if it were possible for Charlie and
his friends to bring this news to their group. They would organize all the
young warriors in the area to come.
On the appointed day, 60 young men were in attendance. They ranged in
age from about 15 to 25 years. As Charlie held up his Bible, he asked how
many recognized the book. Only three could say what it was. These were also
the only ones from the group who had attended school. The meeting continued
and a synopsis of God’s Word from Creation to Christ was shared. The group
listened intently. They had never heard this message. But the Spirit of God
was working among them. In the end, 22 moran prayed, asking for forgiveness
and expressing faith in Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord.
