Moussa
Coulibaly grew up in the African country called Burkina Faso. Moussa and his
family were Muslims, which means that they did not believe that Jesus is God’s
Son. They did not know that Jesus died on the Cross and then came back to life.
So when Moussa’ father died, he was scared. He was afraid of what would happen
to him after he died.
But Moussa had some Christian friends and they
invited him to come to a Christian club meeting. Moussa learned at the club
that if you believe in Jesus you do not have to be afraid of dying, because
everyone who believes in Jesus will someday go to heaven to live with Jesus. So
Moussa prayed with the pastor and asked Jesus to save him.
Now
Moussa is a grownup man and he wants the boys and girls in Burkina Faso to learn
that Jesus loved them, so Moussa started four schools. Most of the children
come from Muslim families that do not believe that Jesus is the Son of God. The
children are learning how to read and write and they are also learning about
Jesus.
