Seychelles

1996

We arrived by plane at the famous Indian Ocean vacation island of Seychelles. Seychelles is a popular tourist destination especially with people from the United Kingdom.

It is a beautiful island with lovely friendly people. We had a good witness with the cross.

I remember that the friendliest person I met one day was a drunken man. Oh, he was happy to see the cross and talk about Jesus. We prayed together and I prayed he find the strength in Jesus to meet his every need. I know Jesus is able. I just love and care for every drunk. My heart goes out to them and their pain and struggle.

A reporter from the island television station came out to do an interview.

One day ‘the Glory came’ and the people were just coming to Jesus almost every step! Crowds of people were praying to receive Jesus. It was Glorious indeed.

We rented a car and Denise drove ahead a few miles with supplies and I carried the cross along the highway in the little towns.

God bless the Seychelles.
