Pastor Frank has a personal affection for people in prison. In 2021, after attending his first FC Grace Conference with Bob and Jeanne in Mbeya, Tanzania, he returned home. This experience in Mbeya revealed deep unforgiveness for his uncle who prevented Frank from achieving his life's goal of playing on the Zambia National Soccer Team. Frank's tryout turned into a disaster as his uncle, who was on staff and had great influence, ridiculed him to players and coaches on the staff. This experience destroyed Frank and he left the game in bitterness and disillusion. In Mbeya, this unforgiveness and bitterness was exposed and Frank repented and forgave his uncle.
The day Frank crossed over the border to Zambia, he received a phone call from this uncle requesting a visit. Frank thought this was very strange because he had never received such a request before, so he went now free from the bitterness. During his visit that day, Frank shared the FC Grace message and his uncle repented and asked for forgiveness. Frank brought his uncle to Christ. Seven days later his uncle died. It is amazing the timing of God. When we see forgiveness, we see God opening doors. It is just amazing..
