and Sis Veronica Badlu, South Ozone
Park Ecclesia, New York. UK: Bro
Duncan Heaster of Walton Ecclesia...
were able to witness on Wednesday,
August 12, 2015, the baptism of our
now brother, Rochester (“Junior”)
Washington, which took place at his
home in Germany.
Junior who is in isolation, having
discovered the great blessing of
eternal life that Our Heavenly Father
has in store for us in his soon coming
Kingdom, was very eager to put on the
Saving Name of Christ assuring him of
an inheritance in this joy. Junior did the
online Bible Basics course and completed his
answers successfully. Bro Duncan always in
readiness to assist in this worthwhile activity,
immediately responded to his call for assis-
tance. So we were able on Wednesday August
12, 2015 to online join in and witness the
baptismal service via Skype, with a hymn,
prayers and a short talk, and then partici-
pated in Breaking of Bread and welcoming our
new brother into fellowship with the right
hand of fellowship.
In responding to our wishes for God’s blessing
and guidance in his new life, Junior requested
our continued prayers for him in the journey
on which he has now embarked and also our

continued fellowship in the breaking of bread
via Skype.
As we parted, we felt so spiritually exhila-
rated, thanking Our Heavenly Father for this
privilege and opportunity in participating in
this exceptional experience, and will soon
spread the joyous news to our brethren and
sisters in Guyana, where Junior, as a lad then,
had connections with the Truth. He is the son
of the late Sis Amy Washington, a sister
greatly beloved in that country, and the
brother of Bro Keith Washington of the Green-
away Ecclesia, who unfortunately could not
be present at his baptism.”
