Does God still reveal Himself supernaturally? That’s what some Cru students found on their spring break mission trip to Estonia, a post-Soviet Union country of only 1% Christians, where they are taught that faith could cost them friendships and even careers. The students had hundreds of spiritual conversations during the trip, sharing the gospel with many. They only encountered three Christians, one of whom was Trinu (“tree-new”).
Trinu was walking past the library when Cru folks asked to chat. When asked how she came to faith without knowing a single believer, she said that a random podcast led her to do research. Then, she and her husband prayed: “God, if You exist and I’m a sinner, show me.” That night, Trinu’s husband had a movie-like dream of every sin he had committed since childhood, and Jesus appeared, offering to take his place in exchange for his allegiance.
He woke transformed and shared with Trinu, who herself had felt an overwhelming sensation of Jesus wrapping His arms around her. She knew without a doubt that she was forgiven and deeply loved. Please pray for Trinu (center below) and her husband to be bold in their faith, along with the new community of believers Cru is trying to build there!
