What a celebration!
Sunday, May 27 we celebrated with Jirka, Lenka, Ivana, Petr and Daniela as they publicly confirmed their faith in Christ. Sunday really was a day for rejoicing as these 5 were baptized. They all have beautiful testimonies of how God was drawing them to Himself and how he used their believing friends and neighbors to share the Gospel with them.
Because believers boldly shared their faith...
- Last year, Jiri and Lenka came to our church for the first time when their neighbor Bara invited them to come to her baptism. They have since accepted Christ and on Sunday were baptized. We are thankful Bara was bold in sharing her faith with them!
- Petr came because his girlfriend Vera invited him and told him about a relationship with Christ! Vera is a new believer and was baptized last May. She has been so bold in sharing the Good News of Christ with those around her.
- Daniela is the daughter of Daniel (the czech leader of our ministry here in Plzen). She is an awesome young lady who has been praying for her classmates every day that they might know Christ.
- Ivana (so maybe her story makes us smile the most...) Ivana and I met as roommates in the hospital 2 years ago. I had just come out of surgery and she was waiting to go in and we became instant friends. She is such a sweet lady and we absolutely love her and her family! Within the last 2 years she has accepted Christ and her faith has grown, but making her decision for Christ public was really difficult for her. On Sunday, she was certain that she must obey what God was asking her to do and she chose to be baptized!
