The whole family is transformed!

Ethiopia, Monday February 2nd 2009

In some earlier news we wrote about our church member Fitsom, who was saved and baptized in our church, and his mother who was saved later and was baptized here as well.

During the Ethiopian Christmas Holiday, which occurs two weeks after ours, Fitsom's father Gabri showed up. He had been gone for 4 years but decided to celebrate Christmas with his son and ex wife. Fitsom is one of our most devoted disciples and brought Gabri to a meeting where he was saved and his life was transformed. Before Gabri left to go back to his home city, he was baptized and was also part of our follow-up classes.

The last thing he said before he left was that he will now go home to start a house church in his house, just as Fitsom and Martha have.
