Eskined Aberra Alemayu

Salvation experience: During his childhood, Eskined's mother was sick and could not find a cure, even through witchcraft.  One day, her Christian sister prayed with her and took her to church, and she was healed. From that point on, Eskined's whole family went to church.  He was 20 years old when he came to Christ.

Life and ministry experience / Present ministry: Eskined is currently studying Pharmacy at the local university ("learning to help people").  He is the leader of the General Paramedical College Christian fellowship, and also preaches and sings.

Vision for the future: Wants to preach the Gospel to all people and to use his profession to help poor people in every dimension through holistic ministry, especially in urban areas.  

Prayer requests:

  • That God would give him power and bless his future ministry
  • That God would provide materials for his present and future ministry (books, medicine)
  • That God would help him in his studies
  • That God would provide him a "visionary helper" wife
