The Faith Testimony Of The First Muslim Young Man We Met

Ssuuna (Asharaf Ssuuna) was a high school student whom we first met in 2015, when Joy Uganda was just beginning its ministry. He was the first part-time worker to join our mission. Ssuuna asked whether he could work with us even though he was Muslim. He said he wanted to study engineering at university but needed to earn money for tuition. We worked together for about a year and then went our separate ways. From time to time, he emailed us with updates. He told us that he had met God and had become a Bible study leader at his church. I wondered how he had come to know God. During my recent visit to Uganda, I met Ssuuna again.

He looked so joyful. God had given us a Muslim young man as the first fruit of our ministry in Uganda. Joy Uganda has continued to become a pathway through which many young people can pursue their dreams. Ssuuna later sent us this testimony of how he came to know God
