The Loopers' had Maryam come today who they met out on Thursday night soul winning. She is from Nigeria and has lived in America only a couple of years. She felt very welcomed at our church and said, she is glad that she has found a church home to attend every week. The Looper's visitor is living proof that Thursday night soul winning brings returns in.
Overall attendance was down today due to the Karen New Year celebration going in our city. We had only eleven Karen folks attend today when we normally have over 50 every week. Overall the spirit was good and we had one baptized at the invitation.The afternoon found Mrs. Painter and I at a Zomi families house who recently had a baby. They sometimes attend our church and had invited us to come to a party celebrating the birth of Paupi their little boy. We saw many Zomi people there that have often attended our church and several that we have won to Christ. Overall it was a very enjoyable afternoon.
