Zahira standing in front of Greatest Journey graduation sign in a graduation gown holding a Greatest Journey booklet God Uses Shoeboxes to Transform Lives Red hand-drawn underline Zahira, a 14-year-old girl living in the Dominican Republic, first learned about God’s love for us at an Operation Christmas Child outreach event for Deaf children. She heard how He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins and rise again. “I didn’t know about Jesus,” she said. “I had no clear idea.” Zahira then attended The Greatest Journey discipleship course that was taught using sign language and gave her life to Christ. She then shared the Gospel with her mother and a friend, and they also invited Jesus to be their Lord and Savior! Read Zahira's Story Declare His glory among the nations!
