Ibiza: answer to persevering prayer

Two years ago a family moved to Ibiza to pray for an ostracised group of Roma gypsies. The Ibiza Roma are considered substandard and not deserving respect. A big part of the family’s journey was challenging those stereotypes, daily prayer walking, researching Romani culture, history and values and learning how God really feels about the Roma and themselves. Then, suddenly God opened everything up. Where doors had been slowly opening, He blew them off their hinges - and He did it in one night! ‘One night, my husband bumped into a Roma friend who introduced him to an important man in the Roma community. God opened up deep conversation and immediate friendship. From two years of being on the outside, that night God drew us into the heart of the Roma.’ Click the ‘More’ button to read how this family shared the gospel, spoke truth into situations, and aligned themselves with the outcast as Jesus did.
