Sharing Jesus in Hausa

By Tom Castor | September 16, 2025 |

If you follow our news closely, you have met Pastor Y’au Lawai Imam. Pastor Y’au leads a church network among the Hausa people of Northern Nigeria and Southern Niger. He is the man who coordinated the distribution of 1,500 Simple Truths for the New Believer in Hausa. AND he is a passionate evangelist to the Muslims in the villages along the border.

A few days ago, we received a short video of Pastor Y’au using the books and preaching in the open air in a Muslim village.

A few days after we received the video, our friend Marwa shared this short report from Pastor Y’au.

Pastor Y’au has used the books to lead people to Jesus and to teach and disciple them as well. He went out to do evangelism on 29-8-2025. When he returned, he shared a testimony about the Hausa book which we gave him last month. Many were encouraged by the book. Some people accepted Jesus. We pray that the Lord will bless the founder of this book in Jesus mighty name.

Our prayer? That God will give Pastor Y’au much fruit through his efforts.

And that every day, somewhere in the world, in each one of the 50+ languages where the little books exist, at least one person will pick one up. Read it. And come to know and love the Lord we serve.

We know that many of you join us in that prayer.
