One advert in the Australian magazine "Women's Weekly" has brought in around 1000 requests for the NEV Bible [about 50% of them from men!]. Some people who've got the Bible have gone on to study the Bible Basics course. We had a complete set of answers returned from MARYGRACE in Sydney, along with a request for baptism. We called her... to find that that morning she had, in her daily morning devotions, prayed that the Carelinks people with whom she had correspondence with would arrange somehow her baptism. This is how we find God at work in human life time and again. We had only been talking about this theme of "God at work in human life" at the Carelinks gatherings in Brisbane and Sydney over the last few days. Due to her handicap, we went to fetch her, and had a pleasant evening with her at the Jones' home, during which she was baptized. Here you can see her being baptized in the family setting, and being welcomed into the Lord's ever growing family by the Carelinks treasurer, Brother John Thatcher. Our Sister has passed through and left various churches and rejoices at having found the pearl of great price. And we give thanks to God that He is so actively at work worldwide, not only in places like Africa and Eastern Europe, but also in complacent Australia. We continue praying for other contacts desiring baptism throughout Australia.
