34 Baptisms in South Sudan

September 2, 2021

One of the best WEI Internet students Marcella has taught during the past four years is a dynamic young man named Bartholomayo, a resident of Aweil, about 500 miles north of Juba.  When Bartholomayo graduated from WEI, he expressed a desire to be baptized.  Marcella and Lola Crouch spent four months searching for someone to baptize Bartholomayo and other WEI students in Aweil.  When American missionaries arrived, they baptized thirteen WEI and WBS students thus establishing a church in Aweil.  Immediately, Bartholomayo started sharing his faith with others and baptizing them into Christ.

On August 31, Marcella wrote to Tom Langley, Lee Allen, Lola Crouch, Jan Towell, and Dick Ady, virtually bursting with joy.  She wrote, “I am so very excited to have received this message from Bartholomayo. Bartholomayo had communicated with me that he was going to a place called Malualkhon for ‘teaching.”  I assumed he was going to attend a seminar-type program.  I WAS SO WRONG!!!! He went to Malualkhon to DO THE TEACHING!!!  He sent the following message and pictures.” 

Bartholomayo wrote, “These are the pictures of two days of preaching in Malualkhon town, Aweil East, and 34 people who believed and were baptized into Christ.”

Some of the 34 People Baptized by Bartholomayo

With joy, Marcella concludes: “Remarkable!!!! Bartholomayo is making a great difference in his part of the world.  When I received these pictures and his message, I was thrilled beyond words.  I can only imagine the grand rejoicing in heaven, with God and his angels, that 34 precious souls were baptized into Christ and added to the family of God.  I am so happy to receive and share this wonderful news.”
