REACHING MUSLIM WOMEN CHRIST

for

GOD LOVES MUSLIM WOMEN SO MUCH THAT HE MAKES THEM OUR NEIGHBORS. He trusts us to engage with them His way, but it can still be really hard to know how to reach out. We feel conflicted by things we hear and read; even the sight of a Muslim woman raises more questions than we have answers for.

Who is this Muslim woman, and why is she here? Will she even speak my language? Am I safe with her, and she with me? What if I offend her? I understand that she needs Jesus, but if she really needs me, what exactly am I supposed to do about that? Where do I start?

The Power of 10: How You can Reach Muslim Women for Christ will help you begin, and Say Hello will continue to be a resource for you as you disciple Christian women along this new path. It’s a joy-filled journey that leads us all closer to Jesus.

Begin this special journey. “Christ in you, the hope of glory.” (Col.1:27)

RESOURCES Salat means prayer in Arabic, which makes Salatomatic.com an appropriate name for a website that will help you find the Muslim friends you might pray for and reach out to!

It’s a Muslim-run website that comprehensively publishes the locations of mosques, Islamic centers, schools, businesses and other Islamic entities in American communities and others world-wide. You will glean more specific information about those places and the communities they serve as well, as you explore links to specific websites and commentary/ reviews which have been posted by others (mostly Muslims).

This Muslim website grants Christ-followers a keen sense of the great opportunities God gives us for sharing Jesus with Muslims globally who by and large have never once been adequately presented with God’s Good News.

Be reminded that since the website is Muslim, it will exalt Islam and Muslim community.

By offering you the links to this website Say Hello is not promoting Islam; rather, we are unveiling fresh opportunities for intercession and outreach to the Muslim neighbors God has given us, so they might receive the Truth about Jesus.
