Nov 18, 2020 Raised with power to a new life
For we died and were buried with Christ by baptism. And just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glorious power of the Father, now we also may live new lives. Romans 6:4 NLT
Very skilled hands dug the perfect baptistry in the ground at my assigned site in Wabag, Papua New Guinea. It was so well done that I was impressed and in awe. 26 precious souls were baptized at the end of the Evangelistic Series.
Precious souls who had been receiving Bible studies before the Quiet Hour efforts and were so touched by the Jesus My Friend Series they did not want to wait any longer to publicly show it. Church officers as well as church members welcomed all 26 with hugs and a good shake of hands. A lei was also put around their necks. Praise God for these precious souls!
Between 20 to 30 people responded to my appeals for Baptism and/or Bible studies almost every night. I started making the calls on Monday and the only night I did not have any response was on Thursday night. Why? I do not know, but we were so happy with all who responded. We prayed over them and Pastors took their names down and will follow up with the Bible Studies to about 100 people or even more. Praise God for His blessing upon those who got baptized.
