At the beginning of 2012, some college saints received
the burden to preach the gospel and this developed into a larger event, a
gospel harvest meeting for the whole church. On January 14, starting at 4:30 in the afternoon at Palmer Secondary
School, about 40 gospel friends came to hear our songs, testimonies, and
message of salvation.
A day before
the meeting, snow was on the ground in the lower mainland, but the roads were
clear by Saturday afternoon, and Richmond
was bathed in the afternoon sun. More than 240 saints participated in the
event. Many brought friends; two brothers served as emcees; two homes were
opened for baptism; more than ten served the meals. Testimonies came from newly
baptized saints, as well as from younger, middle-aged, and older saints.
The message
was centered on man’s need and God’s need and the meeting of these two needs to
arrive at the highest purpose of the universe. Many gospel friends expressed a
desire to attend the meetings and to study the Bible with us. Two new ones were
baptized that evening. May the Lord
continue to supply the saved ones through the saints’ shepherding and cause His
Spirit to move within those who have heard the message, so that in the coming
days, they will also get saved and be ushered into the church life.
