Pray for Yoshi's Uncle

#90
My buddy Yoshi told me at weekly gathering today that he is flying out to Japan tomorrow. It's a fairly spur-of-the-moment trip. See, his uncle is close to dying of cancer... like, the uncle himself doesn't plan on making it two weeks. And in their entire extended family, Yoshi and his sister are the only believers. So the two of them are flying out tomorrow, hopefully getting to his uncle's place by Sunday, and they're hoping that the Spirit would lead them to be able to share the Gospel with him. Before he heads to the airport, Yoshi's going out to buy a Japanese Bible in which he wants to highlight some key passages in Luke for his uncle to look through. Yoshi's prayer is that the Spirit would speak through him and his sister, and that his uncle would come to give his life to Christ, even if it's just moments he passes on, much like the thief on the cross. Would you join me (and Yoshi) in praying for his uncle (his salvation, and perhaps, if the Lord wills, even miraculous healing), and the rest of their family?
