We are delighted to announce the baptism of JOSH, a contact from our websites; may God be with him until His Kingdom comes.
Here’s a message from those who are involved with following up Bible Basics requests from prisoners in the USA:
"We get a number of prisoners request Bible Basics and we are grateful to those who follow up on this. We'd like to share with you the case of William in MS. He got Bible Basics read it and particularly studied the chapter on 'baptism' and desired baptism, but as he's in a high security prison it's hard to visit and baptize inmates. He asked the chaplain to baptize him by immersion in the name of Jesus Christ, which he did. William was attending a Bible study group when he received Bible Basics and he shared what he read in Bible Basics with the study group in the prison. There were five other men baptized along with William at the same time by the chaplain. However, we have not been able to visit these folk, nor were we able to discuss things with them before baptism. William just wrote to us and told us what he'd done! It would be great if someone could go visit these folks. They are in Mississippi, and if anyone is willing to make the journey or happens to be there and would like to assist, do let us know".
