Eight Baptised as Romanian SDA Churches in London Celebrate Evangelism Impact

Romanian Seventh-day Adventist churches in London celebrated the baptism of eight individuals at Stanborough Park on 18 April, following ongoing Sidewalk Evangelism and a previous evangelistic campaign. The milestone included members from the Burnt Oak Romanian group and has sparked continued interest, with several others preparing for baptism and Bible studies already underway.

Last Saturday, 18 April, the Romanian Adventist churches in London celebrated the baptism of eight people at Stanborough Park Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) Church. The baptism was officiated by Pastor Bogdan Dumitru and Gabriel Ciocârlan.

This was a beautiful result of Sidewalk Evangelism efforts, together with the evangelistic campaign held in November last year.

We are also happy to share that two of the new members were baptised from the Burnt Oak Romanian SDA Group, which has recently celebrated its first anniversary since it started.

Already, six more people have expressed their interest in being baptised at the next baptism planned for the autumn. At present, we are also conducting Bible studies with another 15 people, and we hope that some of them will decide to be baptised as well.

In addition, the daughter of one of the candidates who was baptised on this occasion came to us at the end of the service and decided to begin Bible studies in preparation for the next baptism.

We praise God for His blessings and for the way He continues to touch hearts and transform lives.
