[From Jeff Andler] When we came into the village I noticed a young
boy who was dressed in only an unusual white skirt. As I often do, I
waved as we continued toward our school. I noticed the boy had
come into the large school gathering. Following the presentation of
the gospel, after several hundred students had indicated their
decision for Christ, two of our national team members brought this
young boy to me, explaining that he was the child of a Juju man.
Destined to become a Juju man himself, he was not allowed to attend school. He
was required to use only the name of his Juju clan as his own name. Both of this
parents were dead and this boy was living with his grandmother.
Seeing the “white men” arrive in his village, he followed us to school, heard the gospel
presented and trusted Christ as his savior. He received a copy of the word of God and we
were told efforts would be made (by our national team) to get him enrolled in school and to
minister to him in his walk with the Lord.
Had this boy simply seen a van full of Ghanaian preachers, his interest most likely would not have been peaked. However, the presence of the “whites” in this village was used of God, not only to see his boy converted, but perhaps hundreds of others who would have been influenced by the evil and wickedness of Jujuism through this boy’s life.
He came into the schoolyard walking in darkness, but he left, walking in the Light of Jesus.
