Brand New Baby!

We are so excited! We have our first brand new baby in the Lord! We have had many backsliders come back to God and be refilled, others who are familiar with Pentecost and others who have already been baptized in Jesus Name, but needed the Holy Ghost. This is our first brand new person we won "off the street." Literally.

Sis. McClain stopped in front of this mom's house on the way to our Backyard VBS because her boys were playing in their yard. Sis. McClain asked if she could take them to our VBS and bring them back a few hours later. They came every evening that week! Then the whole family came on the following Sunday for our special VBS program and has hardly missed since. God has His ways of reaching people!?

Before service tonight, I was reminding this Backyard VBS mom about a Bible Study that we had already talked about starting with her. In the middle of talking to her, she stood up in front of me, grabbed my arm and started crying. She said,

"I have to tell you something. Last Tuesday night after the Ladies Fellowship at your house, I went home and as I was going to bed, I was thinking about the Lord. I went to sleep and woke up suddenly around 3am and I was speaking in a language I did not understand. I was dreaming about praying. It startled me, but I have not been the same since. Everything has been different!" She was sobbing by the time she got through. She said, "I didn't know how to tell you this!"

We do not have any "face" pictures of her yet! This is one of her on the first Sunday they came (VBS program). She is on the bottom far right with the little girl. She always has such a pleasant smile. Her sons are in front of the pulpit in light shirts.

It looks like she will be baptized soon - I will update you when it happens.

Another picture of her sons on that special Sunday morning.
