Jose Briones – Denver, Colorado … The Denver South Hispanic Seventh-day Adventist Church recently concluded a powerful week of evangelism, October 4-11, under the theme “Don’t Be Deceived.” Each evening, members and guests gathered to explore biblical truths and unmask spiritual deceptions, guided by Scripture and the Holy Spirit.
The week culminated in a joyful baptismal celebration, where two couples publicly committed their lives to Christ. The baptisms marked not only a personal milestone for the individuals involved but also a spiritual victory for the entire church community.
“This week reminded us that the gospel still transforms lives,” said Julio Díaz, the church’s interim pastor, who led the series. “When the church comes together in prayer, service, and love, God moves in powerful ways. These baptisms are just the beginning.”
The success of the event was the result of a united church effort. Every ministry played a vital role: Pathfinders welcomed visitors, deaconesses prepared evening refreshments, youth led worship in song, and deacons ensured the logistics ran smoothly. The church’s mission director collected contact information from guests while the entire congregation supported the series through prayer and faithful attendance.
Each night, a different biblical truth was presented, offering clarity and hope in a world full of confusion. The messages resonated deeply with attendees, many of whom returned night after night to learn more.
The week left the church energized and inspired to continue its mission of sharing the gospel and serving the community. As Díaz emphasized, “We are not just celebrating decisions—we are witnessing the fruit of a church that believes in the power of the Word and the presence of the Holy Spirit.”
