Discipleship at Harvest Baptist Church
Now Playing: Juma teaching the
Topic: Testimonies
Several weeks ago Sunil (the man sitting on the same pew as me) came to Harvest Baptist Church for the first time. Not long after that I got a call from Bro. Ken Guth, a fellow missionary on the island. He asked about Sunil and explained that Sunil had recently recieved Christ at a family camp sponsored by the church Ken is working with. Ken thought it would be a good idea to get Sunil involved in our GROWING Discipleship program. Yesterday, was Sunil's second week and he is progressing well!

The man to the right of the picture is, Juma. You may remember his picture from my newsletter that featured the graduates of the Discipleship Leader's class, a 12 week class that instructed mature believers how to disciple a new convert. Juma and I are alternating teaching the lessons to Sunil. This will give Juma hands on experience in discipling without being overwhelmed. In addition, it will allow me to see how well I taught the concepts of discipling to Juma.

Please pray for Sunil. This week he was sick, but he had such a desire to learn that he came to class anyway. He told Juma and I that everytime he tries to do something for God or better himself in anyway, this kind of stuff happens. Juma and I, explained how our enemy satan doesn't like to see us do things that please God, but we encouraged Sunil to "keep at it", realizing that God will bless his faithfulness!
