Leave It In the Water


I have great news!!!! One of Ryan's readers was baptized last night. Francisco started reading in June with the LST team from Oklahoma Christian. He continued with Ryan, and was having Portuguese Bible studies with one of the missionaries when we got here. Last night, he decided to give his life to Christ. Praise God! His life has not been easy, but the love of Jesus conquers all.

One of Ryan's other readers, who is not a Christian, witnessed the baptism. Afterwards, I asked him what he thought about it. He said, "It is beautiful that he left his sins in the water." Not only did one reader gain a new life and salvation, but another reader witnessed it and recognized the beauty of it. Praise the Lord for the work He is doing here in Natal, Brazil!
