Fiona’s Freedom

Leave a Comment

Fiona Schachinger was baptized on March 18, 2018. We had the chance to catch up with her and ask her a few questions about her walk with God and how she came to make this amazing decision. What inspired you to pursue a relationship with God? Realizing that I was not actually a part of God’s kingdom really made me want to pursue God and the word. I wanted to understand how the people around me were able to be so happy and loving and so connected to God and each other. What was one of [Read more...]

Mikayla Seaborne Finds Her God

Leave a Comment

On Sunday April 1st, Mikayla Sebourne made Jesus Lord of her life. She was baptized by her parents and surrounded by so many of her new brothers & sisters. Mikayla began studying the Bible in August of 2017 after realizing how much God loves her!

International Women’s Day

March 7—A memorable day. A day of miracles. A day where God intervened. A day of salvation. This was the day (according to Esther 3:7 in the NLT which uses the Hebrew lunar calendar) that Haman planned to annihilate God’s people. Thankfully, that didn’t happen! Mordecai discovered the sinister plan and enlisted the help of his niece, Queen Esther. She requested fasting and prayer, as nothing less than a miracle could stop Haman’s evil plan. Esther and company prayed and fasted, [Read more...]

Alexis Finds Peace in God

On January 7th, 2018 Alexis made the decision to get baptized into the name of Jesus! We were able to ask her a few questions and below are her responses and her testimony. So inspiring!  What inspired you to become a disciple?      God did!! At camp this summer, I had an incredible connection with God; I was going through something very hard and I was crying out to God in my cabin, desperately asking him for his help, knowing I couldn't get through it on my own anymore. In that moment [Read more...]

New Year, New Man

Leave a Comment

Joel Espada was baptized into Jesus on December 31, 2017. It is incredibly poetic that this would be the day, New Years Eve, that he would be made new in Christ. As the Apostle Paul discusses in Romans 6: 1-7 when we are baptized we are participating in the Death, Burial, and Resurrection of Jesus and our old selves are "done away with." "What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase?2 By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any [Read more...]
