The first fruit of 2010 is 6 people who were willing to enter into the covenant with the Lord – 5 by immersion and 1 by pouring of water at the church (because of physical complications). 6 people baptized. Pastor speaking the final instruction before the baptism. “God, bless and sanctify this water”

When she came to Gethsemane, she agreed at once to be baptized.

Both their parents are believers, the father is one of the small group leaders of the church, a former alcoholic, the mother has the official President –given title “hero mother” for so many children born. Two sons, the eldest and the youngest, have not yet been baptized, the rest of the children fully follow the Lord. All these Chinese brothers and sisters are now baptized and follow the Lord.
