Baptisms on the island of Nias, Indonesia

The church is growing in Nias. We have been active in relief aid following the tsunami. I don't know how many have been baptized or how many new congregations have begun, but I do know the numbers are significant.

Many tons of rice and dehydrated food has been shipped by Rapha Internations of Fort Worth, TX and T.E.A.R.S. from Lake Jackson, TX has been distributing it to the needy on the island. Most of this work has been in the southern part of Nias where it is very difficult to transport heavy loads due to the poor roads and lack of equipment. Posted by Picasa
