Severe stomach pain does not stop baptism
by
Prem Hembrom Gospel Outreach volunteer KAIRACHATAR, India—Gospel Outreach volunteers
and lay members held meetings in Baburjee Hansdak's
village. Baburjee was very interested in the
Sabbath. He decided to be baptized. But then he had
severe stomach pain. He thought, "Satan is working
in my mind so that I will not take baptism." He
prayed to Jesus to take away his pain and fever. In
April this year, he was taken to a canal and
baptized. Picture rolls create interest

Retired couple spreads the word about Gospel
Outreach
FLORIDA—Peggy and Sal Salamone have been
ambassadors for Gospel Outreach (GO) for more than
two years. They are full-time RVers. Wherever they
go, they call the pastor of the church where they
will be spending the weekend to see if they can
introduce GO to the congregation. This has been very
helpful in making more people aware of GO and has
helped expand the mailing list. Chapel dedicated in Bamako
by
David Ferraro president, Mali Adventist Mission BAMAKO, Mali—The Yirimadio chapel was dedicated
on June 26, 2004. It will seat 80 people. At the
dedication, the majority of the members of the
Bamako district and local civil and religious
authorities were present. Also, a baptism was held.
Gospel Outreach evangelist Samson Keita is in charge
of the Yirimadio company. He prays that the company
will soon become an organized church. |
