The story of Victor Watters is a story of God’s grace in using cancer for His glory and the good of the cancer-ridden:
Undoubtedly, Victor was on a mission to share the gospel with unbelievers — to spread the fragrance of Jesus everywhere. He did so with articulation and wisdom beyond his years. With his Bible in hand, he would read God’s Word, imploring those who came to “be reconciled to Christ.” Victor spoke truth generated by love and genuine concern. It was incredible to see that although Victor’s body was withering away, he was strong in his desire to point others to Jesus. We were so blessed to experience the fragrance of Christ through Victor, and we will never be the same. [Read his entire testimony.]
