New Believer in Christ

Fernando Holder had been coming to one of our home Bible studies for several weeks. We had also talked extensively about the Word of God and many other matters on his heart.

I invited him to come to my home to talk about eternal life and salvation. It was Thanksgiving Day and our colleagues from our Mission were coming over to celebrate the special day. When he arrived, Ruth whispered to me: "Why don't you invite him to stay for dinner." So I did. He accepted the invitation and we began talking about the gospel.
At the end of the conversation, Fernando got saved!

It was a great day to remember. After our Thanksgiving meal, we sang hymns and each took a turn to publicly gave thanks to the Lord for different things. When it was Fernando's turn, I had him tell everyone what had just happened to him. He does not speak English so he gave his testimony in Spanish. One more reason to be thankful to the Lord!
This is Fernando Holder, a new creature in Christ.

Please continue to pray for him. He has a thirst to know more about God's Word.
