I was getting my hair cut (yes I do have to pay for my few hairs to be trimmed) by Faith, my Persian barber. She is such an evangelist to Muslims from Iran. Although very sweet and quiet she has led many of her family and friends to faith in Jesus. She invites them to Alpha at her church and if they say no, which they usually do, she does three things. She prays for them regularly, she loves them unconditionally (knowing that they are watching to see if she walks the talk) then she waits for God to do the rest. When things get rough for the person she's praying for they come to her and voila! Faith prays with them to become believers. I always love to listen to her latest story of her exploits. God bless our hairdressers who double as counsellors and evangelists.
