SIERRA LEONE — Christian Girl Escapes Secret Society

This remote jungle church recently held its first baptism service.
A front-line worker visited a remote part of northern Sierra Leone to participate in the first baptismal service of a newly planted church.
Reaching the church required traveling by truck and then motorcycle for hours over a series of rough dirt roads and paths. After the worker arrived and participated in a church service, the congregation walked to a river for the baptism ceremony. By the time they arrived, the sun had set. “So, using the motorcycle’s lights, we had a beautiful baptism ceremony in which 31 believers entered into the baptism waters,” the front-line worker said. Afterward, the worker distributed audio Bibles in a local language to those who were baptized. “I witnessed the joy of these people receiving the Word of God in a way they can understand,” he said.
Pray that these new Christians will grow in their faith and that more churches will be established in remote areas.
