January 24th, was just a great day in the Lord Jesus Christ! We decided to have a cookout after the morning services; it was great weather, and plenty of visitors and new converts to enjoy the fellowship! Our services were powerful, and the Lord was moving on every heart.
The great day actually started the day before! Saturday morning prayer and outreach was awesome! 20 people showed up ready to go and pass out fliers, they were ready to give their testimony as we believed God fo
r a tremendous and fruitful venture. God did not disappoint! I was paired up with one of the new believers and he barely spoke English. His Spanish was top notch as we tag-teamed on patrons of an apartment complex.
When it was an English resident, I spoke and handed out the flier - when it was Spanish, he took off like a shot!! I asked him, (Leo), if this was his first time outreaching, and he said 'yes.' Well, he could've fooled me! We had the privilege of praying with a young man to get saved towards the end of the outreach!! Today, (The 24th), as people were coming into the church, we began to recognize many of the visitors from the outreach the previous day! It was so encouraging to see the fruit of our labors!
Before the preaching went forward, I had the honor and privilege to handout Water Baptism Certificates to the many new comers who were recently baptized! The church exploded into applause as the people came to accept their certificates. I'm telling you, today was just a really GOOD DAY. The food was out of this world! I'm telling you, our ladies in the church can cook like pros!!I'm so glad that my family and I are a part of something so special. You know, from time to time, I often wonder - what would've happened, if I would've compromised my calling, or my faith? I thank God that He kept me! Please continue to pray for the church in Pasadena TX...God is taking us to the next level.
