Carelinks | Amazing response in the United Kingdom

Bibles, and praying together for
blessing on the recipients. That
same day witnessed the baptism of
Gloria, who three years ago had
seen the same advertisement, and
only now come to baptism. We
believe the word will not return
void.
Over the past few months, there
have been around twenty baptisms
in the UK as a result of Bible Basics
and NEV Bible distribution work.
A happy group of us gathered to
baptize Lara at her home; all up we
were three children plus six brethren and
sisters who met up with her and her daughter.
It was a truly happy occasion. Originally
from? Brazil, Lara had read the Bible carefully
for many years before coming to the UK. She
was an active member of a local church, and
brought over 20 Portuguese speakers to the
church. But as she figured out that the trinity
was not Biblical and speaking in tongues, as
they practiced it, wasn’t at all Biblical, she
shared those truths with her Portuguese
speaking friends and they left the church. She
encountered us online and actually purchased
a copy of? Bible Basics from eBay even though
we give it away free. She is very zealous to
believe and do what is right. She works long
hours doing various jobs and yet makes Bible
study a priority, and is teaching her young
daughter from? Bible Basics. We have given her
supplies of Portuguese? Bible Basics and she is
sharing them with her friends and also posting
them to family members back in Brazil. We
now seek to encourage her to connect with
her friends who left church in order to get
them together with her in a house group, lest
they wander from the pathway completely, as
so many do.
