Bringing someone to Christ is a beautiful and rewarding journey, but it can also be challenging. One of the most powerful ways to help someone find faith is through prayer. When we pray for someone to come to Christ, we ask God to open their heart, guide their steps, and reveal His love to them.

Whether it’s a friend, family member, or even a stranger, our prayers can make a significant difference in their spiritual journey.
