The Freel Family

I met Andrea this past spring at a public school carnival where we were inviting kids to our summer VBS. I talked with her for a while and invited her son to VBS and their family to our church. They were looking for a new church at the time. She brought her son, Isaiah, for the entire week of Vacation Bible School. He trusted Christ as his Savior that week and Andrea and her husband, Steve, started visiting the church after that. "My" Steve had the opportunity to meet with them for a period of several weeks to answer many spiritual questions that they had since they were coming from a Lutheran background. He gave them the gospel on several occasions and they continued coming to church seeking answers. On our church "Friend Day" back in August, Steve and Andrea both prayed to receive Christ as their Savior. Steve had the opportunity to baptize the whole family tonight at church. It was so exciting to see the Lord draw them to Himself and save their entire family.

How precious and special that Steve got to witness to them and baptize them, too!
