So, this is how you do it....hold your nose....
now...go to the baptizer!
(Temshing's first time to perform a baptism...he was so excited. He told Nathan that this would be the first time for him to see a baptism without a big white robe doing the baptism : ) )
now...hold your nose and be dunked!
and...come up a new man!
Doesn't this look like a new person! Praise the Lord!!!
Now the story....Nathan was waiting for a couple to fly into our city a month ago...he was waiting for them at the airport when a young man knocked on the window of the vehicle asking if he could help when they arrived. Nathan told him to get in the car while they waited so he could tell the guy a story. The story was of course about Jesus. Nathan invited him to our home later in the week, he came several times to our church service listening to the gospel. Nathan went to his home several times to tell him again about the Gospel. Then,the day came when one of our journeymen and his partner went to show the guy love and he and his family accepted the most precious gift ever given...NEW LIFE! His family was baptized last week. What an awesome day it was!

Praising God with you for this wonderful story. Thank you for sharing.
WOW!!! That is amazing. So excited to see him and his family come to know Jesus; what an encouragement! Hope you all are doing well!

What a great story of faithfulness, God's timing, and a ready heart!! So I have to know, does Nathan do this with everyone, and this guy is just one of many who hear? Or was this a rare occurrance? Definitely challenging to me!
