The Expansion
4:54 PM
Anticipation was in the air, everyone rushed about hurriedly to be sure everything was just perfect for our first service at the new property. The PA system needed to be set up, Hymnals placed in each seat, the baptistery set up, changing rooms prepared, ushers trained. Today was the day! After having several weeks and months of overflowing our old property, it was exciting to have a huge building to fill. But would we fill it? Would it seem huge and the people few in number?
Our hearts were not disappointed that day as 138 people filled our new church building. Many of our faithful church members brought a visitor or friend. It didn't seem too big at all. Actually, in my mind I wondered how long we would be able to fit in this new property before we would have to move again! (I think it will be a while tho!)

We had a great response to the invitation that day! We were blessed to have 24 visitors, 13 people saved and 5 baptized.

Thanks for your prayers for Iglesia Bautista Internacional! We're thrilled with what God is doing here in this place. We know none of it would be possible without the faithful prayers of God's people! We can't wait to see what God will do in the future! Thanks for enjoying the journey with us.
