This year, we saw God do another miracle! Poppa Timario accepted the Lord as his personal Savior! We prayed for his salvation for eight long years, after meeting his family on our very first church route. Over the years, his wife and several children were saved and it was always their prayer that Poppa would find Christ too. In October, he came back to church with his wife, and during the service, he said he felt a great conviction to be saved. He had heard the gospel many times before, but on that day, he realized he truly needed Christ! Then, last Sunday, our hearts rejoiced again as Poppa Timario was baptized. What a tremendous blessing to see God work in this family! Have the years passed as you prayed for someone’s soul? Keep praying! God still answers prayer and He still saves the lost!

A Family Follows
A family was baptized this month! Their excitement to learn and grow is such a blessing! Brother Ronnie and Mrs. Maryvick are taking discipleship classes with Pastor Elbern. Their daughter, River Nile, is 13 and full of questions. She has an earnest desire to do right and has already brought several friends to church! We thank the Lord for bringing this family to us!
Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers; Ephesians 1:15-16
June Baptisms
We were so blessed by the baptisms of two of our teens on Sunday! Jay was saved at a Teen Rally in 2014 and Jeremiah was saved at our last youth camp. Both these young men have grown up at NCBC and it is such an encouragement to see their desire to obey the Lord in believer’s baptism. All the work that goes into these youth ministries is so worth it when you see souls come to Christ!
Each One Reach One!
A young man was recently saved and baptized! His story begins like so many others. Someone cared enough for his soul to invite him to church. After hearing a clear presentation of the Gospel, he asked the Lord to be his Savior! Now, he has joined a Bible study and the choir. Last week he even invited his cousin to church! That is the power of the Gospel! Don’t let the good news stop with you. Let us each one reach one and watch God draw sinners to Himself!
