Baptism

I am a little late in writing a new blog.  I should probably say, a lot late.  A week and a half ago, I let Salif preach at Tingandogo on Sunday morning.  If only you could have known Salif in 2002, when I first met him.  He didn’t speak much French, didn’t know how to read and was a very closed Muslim.  To see where God has brought him is an absolute miracle.  God is still in the life changing business.  He probably preached one of the best messages that any of my young men have ever preached.  He did a superb job.  I was shocked, to be honest.

At our church at Cissin, Water of life Baptist Church, we had a baptism.  I had the great privilege of baptizing 5 people.  We baptized a former Muslim lady.  Her husband is Muslim but doesn’t have a problem with her coming to our church.  That is very strange.  That is very abnormal here.  We haven’t had anybody physically hurt by accepting Christ as their Saviour but we have had many attacked verbally and unfortunaltely to the point where some have given in.  We had no salvation decisions but we did have about 7 visitors and I am sure there were some that were lost.
