Each summer, thousands of Gulf Arabs come to London for vacation. Most of them have never had a single opportunity to hear the truth about Jesus. London Bridges is an innovative way to share the gospel with them. While it is illegal to evangelize or distribute Bibles in the home countries of these Arabs, summertime in London provides the opportunity to share about Jesus. Many will be exposed to the gospel for the very first time. The work is done in small teams focused on sowing seeds and building personal relationships when the opportunity arises.
