By Don Lopes — Fort Morgan, Colorado … The Fort Morgan congregation celebrated the conclusion of their evangelistic outreach on Sabbath, January 30, with the church rejoicing as they witnessed the baptism of Saul and Mariel Munoz.

According to Lopes, the evangelistic series, which started at the end of 2019, concluded with the decision by Mariel and Saul to be baptized. Saul’s cousin, Fernando, a member of the church in Fort Morgan, put into motion this beautiful turn of events when he invited them to study the Bible and make a decision for Jesus.

Although Mariel and Saul were ready for baptism during the Summer of 2020, circumstances, including Covid restrictions, prohibited the ceremony from taking place. “We were delighted [to finally be able to] hold the baptism recently,” Don Lopes said.

“We praise the Lord for their decision and a newly-found love for Jesus,” commented Pastor Lopes.
