Before my team left for Vanuatu, we spent time praying together and asking the Lord for pictures of people He wanted us to be looking for on Aneityum.
During our prayer time, I saw a picture of a man with his back to me, looking out over the ocean, next to a wooden structure with a thatched roof. He was wearing a fedora hat.
I told my team about the picture, and when we landed on Aneityum, I started looking for fedora hats. I hadn't spotted any until midway through our first medical clinic day in Port Patrick.
After lunch, I saw a young man approach several other guys at the clinic, which was being held under a mango tree on the beach. He sat down with his back to me, next to a community board with a thatched roof, looking out over the ocean.
He was not only wearing a fedora hat, but it was a hot pink one with a feather in it for good visibility measures!
I alerted my team, and we approached him and asked him if we could pray for him. We had a conversation with him, and learned his name was Samson. He ended up telling us he wanted to dedicate his life to the Lord that day.
Since we were staying on in Port Patrick for another week and a half, the guys on our team were able to hang out with him and encourage and disciple him in his walk with the Lord before we left.
It was so encouraging for my whole team to see the results of the picture the Lord gave us before leaving NZ.
