Our church reached out to the family with presents, food and much prayer, Jerad & Wanda Mellette (Montreal, Canada) reported.  “’R’ continued to come to the youth group as often as she could.  (Her parents are divorced and she lives with her mother a distance away).

“She reached out to me the other day asking me if I could ‘confirm her into Christianity’ (confirmation is Catholic terminology, a necessary sacrament for joining the Catholic church and receiving the Holy Spirit.)

“After spending some time with her explaining the differences between Catholicism and true biblical Christianity, she gladly accepted Jesus as her Savior!  There is great rejoicing in Heaven!

“She needs prayer.  She is a brand new baby Christian with a LOT to learn.  Her family is divided between ‘nominal Catholics’ and non-believers.  None of them understand why she is doing what she is doing.”
