Sunday was a gorgeous, sunny day, and we gathered with some of the group from the Sept 6 post "Forgiven" beside a little lake at the foot of a volcano.
What a spectacular setting for God to do something amazing. These four new believers took a bold step of faith and proclaimed to their curious friends and neighbors that they have chosen to follow Christ.
We can't wait to see all that God will accomplish through the new life of Jose. He is incredibly excited about what he has learned from the Bible, and he is eagerly telling everyone else he comes in contact with.
Jose then baptized his wife, Mary Ann.
Then Jose baptized his brother-in-law, Christopher (the one featured the month of July on our prayer calendar for those of you who are following that - your prayers were answered!) and a friend of theirs, Annabelle. Their culture makes it awkward for a man to touch a woman who is not his wife, so their solution was that Jose's wife would stand with him while he baptized Annabelle.
We give God all the glory for the amazing ways that He is at work amongst the Agta tribal people and the way that HE IS BUILDING HIS CHURCH in this place. Praise be to Him!

It`s so good to hear and see good news. I pray that God is using these new believers in a mighty way.
What an amazing way to start the day-here in the U.S.! Knowing that God is using you is such a work of God-not cause you need the help :), but because satan has tried so hard to keep these folks from hearing the truth. Praying for you all!!!!
