8 new unbaptized publishers

With the memorial season coming up, many were encouraged to finally take the very important step to start preaching. We had 8 qualify in Saipan-English, and 3 in Saipan-Tagalog. I'm so very excited because for the first time I have had the privilege to help a Bible student progress this far. What an exciting feeling in the congregation right now. The zeal of these new ones is contagious. That's many more slaps in Satan's face!


This is Doris [my Bible student] and I out in service for her very first time. We have been studying for almost two years, and i felt she was ready more than 6 months ago. I was waiting for her to ask me when she could start preaching, but she never did. When I finally decided to ask her she said, "I've been waiting for you to ask me!"



This is Marivick on the left and Tess [her Bible study conductor] on the right. Along with just becoming an unbaptized publisher she just gave her very first talk on the school. Marivick has been studying for about 6 months now. In just these 6 months, learning about Jehovah has moved her to become a completely new person. She has given every effort to put on the "New Personality". She can't wait to get baptized this summer.

Raul Hidalgo has 3 boys, ages 15,14, and 12. These 3 boys have been faithfully attending meetings and going out in field service for almost 2 years now. They would walk to the meetings and make their own arrangements for service because their parents didn't attend. The 2 oldest boys progressed to the point of baptism. After months and months of the boys steadfastness, we started to see Kuya Raul at the hall. well...

Kuya Raul was Baptized! When he was asked his two questions- he gave to LOUDEST answer I've ever heard anyone give! We are all so happy and so proud to see him make the best decision anyone could ever make.
