9 Souls were added in the Lord's body through baptism this day, Dec. 4, 2010.

After Jesus declared in Matt. 28:18 that "All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth." and commanding "19Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:" and " 20Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen."

Matt 28:19 was accomplished, and now we pray for verse 20 to be accomplished so that these souls will grow and be faithful to the end.

Acts 8:12 "But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women." They believed Philip's preaching therefore they were baptized.

The 9 folks also gladly believed the gospel, the things concerning the "Kingdom" therefore no wonder they were baptized, added in the Lord's church (ACTS 2:47).

Dad preached a good lesson.

30 minutes later, Minando Joaquain arrived and want to be baptized, so I baptized him immediately. He is always attending our worship there in Libas, so he already believed. The situation is like when the Eunuch said to Philip "See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?" (ACTS 8:35-36).


Brother Allan Kimnon, my dad (Siamen Tumandan) and I were the preachers present. Dad did a good sermon, although there were some private Bible Studies we made I and brother Allan. They are truly converted by our preaching because every time they asked questions, we could answer them with care and candor.

They are now joining in worship and member of the congregation of our Lord that meets in Abtam Libas, Maasim Sarangani Province where Brother Allan and I serves as EVANGELIST.

Thanks and God Bless us all. To God be the Glory.

In Christian Love,
Mike
