Fourteen Chiefs, Fourteen Teachers: Answered Prayer

After six months of daily prayer, a missionary family set sail for an unreached island — and arrived on the exact day fourteen tribal chiefs had gathered for a once-in-a-generation meeting. This answered prayer story is a striking picture of what happens when a mission plan is surrendered entirely to God's timing. Ann Browning's father felt called to bring the gospel to the unreached Combi Islands of Papua New Guinea, but refused to move until the whole mission staff had prayed for the right moment for six full months. When the missionaries finally sailed and anchored near a village, they discovered fourteen district chiefs had gathered that same day for a rare meeting. After hearing Bible stories deep into the night, the chiefs requested teachers for all fourteen of their districts — and the ship happened to be carrying exactly fourteen missionary families, each perfectly positioned to begin the work. In this episode, you will hear: Why the mission team prayed for six full months before setting sail The unexpected gathering of fourteen tribal chiefs on the day they arrived A full day and night of storytelling that opened hearts to the gospel How the number of missionaries onboard matched the number of districts exactly Watch all the episodes on our Youtube channel at this link: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL65y7saKkuQ2TB-CeuL-Ewag2dXWlz-A8 Music Credits: Clouds by Ethereal 88 | ethereal88.bandcamp.com Music promoted by www.free-stock-music.com Creative Commons / Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0)
