This is Alieu Sesay.
He is a fisherman in Brigitte Village. In fact, he just came ashore when we ran into him. It had been a rough couple of days. The boat he was fishing in broke down, and he'd spent the night in the sea. His catch, as you can see, was rather small.
And yet, he was joyful! What a great illustration of James 1:2-4 in action!
Pastor Justus Koroma first witnessed to him when he moved to Brigitte about a year ago, relocating from the much larger community of Waterloo -- about halfway between Brigitte and Freetown.
"Jesus has done so many things for me. The church has done so many things for me," Alieu said. "I have peace, joy, happiness."
Before coming to Christ, he reported feeling frequently sick and had no peace of mind. He is hoping fishing is a temporary stop for him, as he said he'd like to do something else to sustain his life.
Please pray for Alieu, that he may find purpose with Jesus and perhaps even a new calling on life through Lifegate's Bible Telling School!
