Dear Friends,
Several months ago a man named Chris Doga came to our teammate, Leslie, to ask some questions about God. Leslie has been studying the Bible with him and his wife weekly, and tonight they were baptized. We piled our little church into our truck and went out to greet the new Christians, and we were all so encouraged as Chris and Melva each told us why they had decided to become Christians. Their excitement was a wonderful boost to Pauline, Poni and Lena, the family of Christians who have been here since the beginning. Chris and Melva live out of walking distance from our church, and Chris has said that he is going to try to get a driver's license so that he can join us for services in Alotau. In the meantime, however, Leslie and whoever can join him will have afternoon worship in his neighborhood. So our little tiny congregation not only has its first new brothers and sisters, but also its first church plant.
Apparently others in their family have begun "eavesdropping" on the Bible studies as well, so pray that hearts in their extended family will also turn to Christ.
Love, Diane Reese (with Marcus and Hannah)
