STORY BEHIND THE PHOTO:

We were 20 hours into our trip from the capital city, Ulan Batar to minister to the people in South Gobi. We ended up losing our way due to the lack of signs and paved roads and found ourselves on top of a mountain. This picture shows the home or ‘ger’ of the Mongolian family that we stumbled upon. We saw this as an opportunity from God to share the gospel with them. They didn’t accept Christ, but we sensed God’s will that we plant seeds in their hearts before we continued with our journey. They gave us directions to our destination, which we were grateful for. We believe that everything happens for a reason, and that this trip including countless other journeys that we’ve embarked on have demonstrated that God truly does work in mysterious ways.
