Nazarene Missions

Message from our Missionary President

I Say ‘Yes’ to Him

When God spoke to Daux about preparing for ministry, she couldn’t understand why. She was uneducated. She couldn’t read and write well in Tok Pisin [Pidgin language based on English and spoken in Melanesia, New Guinea, and northeast Australia]. Her husband had left her. Why would God think about her for such a calling?
Finally, she said, “Yes” to God’s leading and entered the lay ministry program at Melanesia Nazarene Bible College. The first semester, she struggled with reading until another student began tutoring her. Daux caught on quickly, and we all rejoiced with her progress. Her testimonies are always filled with her praise to God and for the Bible College.
Daux desires to improve her study skills and Tok Pisin so that she can enter the program that prepares students for ordination as pastors in the Church of the Nazarene. Will you pray for her as she prepares to be a pastor?
