Baptisms in Los Angeles

They began their own study, believing no church shared their discoveries until they found labiblia.com and rejoiced to connect with others who understood the same Bible truths.

With great joy we witnessed the baptisms on August 3, 2025, of Lennart Blanco and Daniel and Lucrecia Astacio.

Our new brother Lennart was a postal student since 2009, always answering, but because of living out in the Inland Empire (a long way from Los Angeles), and having no transportation, he wasn’t able to attend the meetings. With the advent of ZOOM, he immediately began attending all our meetings as well as the public lectures in San Salvador. He was able to attend in person a number of times as well. It gives us great pleasure to have him as part of the family. He already is supporting the various ecclesial classes with readings and prayers.

Bro. Daniel and Sis. Lucrecia were formerly Adventists. Daniel was a pastor for twenty-one years. But they began to notice that the teachings weren’t really what the Bible said. They started their own study, but thought that no church in the world taught what they had discovered. Then they found “labiblia.com” and were overjoyed to see there was a group that understood Bible teaching. They live in Houston, Texas, and have attended the ecclesia a few times, but they found that not speaking English made fellowship difficult. They attend the LA Hispanic ZOOM meeting, and Daniel is already doing readings and prayers. They were delighted that their daughter, who lives in San Bernardino, could attend their baptisms.
