Sunday, September 26, we had a baptism under our house for Isaiah, Anna, and Davi (our Khmer neighbor). Davi has been following Christ for almost two years now and a few months ago she said she wanted to be baptized. We made it really clear that baptism meant she was renouncing all the works of the Devil and turning 100% to Christ. This means no more participation in Buddhist ceremonies or having Buddhist charms in the home. It’s a big step to take. But Davi said she was ready. We were so excited. Due to Covid regulations and the fact that there is no Khmer church in our town, we held the baptism under our house. Davi’s sister, son, daughter, nieces, and nephew attended.

Isaiah and Anna were thrilled for the opportunity for be baptized. They’ve expressed a desire, but being baptized at Jarai church was very overwhelming for them. What a joy for us to see them baptized. This was Josh’s first time to conduct a baptism service. Later in the evening we had the Lord’s Supper. I’m so thankful for these lives! Thanks be to God!
