St. Lucia Baptism
The story of Sis. Nasha's baptism.
Read Time: 1 minute
On Sunday, April 7, Nasha Louis was baptized into Christ at Vigie Beach, Castries, St. Lucia. During a thorough interview on the previous Thursday, she gave a good confession of her understanding of the gospel with two local witnesses present, Sis. Dawn Hutchinson and Bro. Julian Jackson.
Sis. Nasha had completed the Exploring the Bible course on thisisyourbible.com and consequently requested baptism. Bro. Martin Webster and I met Nasha briefly in early February 2021 at a local radio station where she worked. This was just before the lockdowns due to the severity of the COVID-19 outbreak. It was a brief encounter, and as we had no opportunity to follow up with the station, we didn’t expect to hear from her again.
During a subsequent visit in November of 2022, I providentially met her again while walking down the road near the Mission House. I struck up a conversation with her and gave her a “thisisyourbible.com” business card. Much to my surprise (“Oh, me of little faith!”), she registered for Exploring the Bible and submitted her lesson responses regularly with insightful answers, comments, and excellent questions.
Upon my return to Canada, we kept in touch with regular ZOOM Bible Classes, which, before long, morphed into pre-baptismal classes. Bro. Martin and Sis. Lois Webster had sessions with her during their visit in January of this year.
Nasha is a good student with a caring nature. With God’s blessing, she will prove to be a valuable addition to the Lord’s family in St. Lucia.
