Our Wonder Couple

This is Junior and Dani. They are the newest couple in our church. What... they are the Only couple in our church. Other than Dawn and me.

We are praising the Lord for their recent Salvation. Both of these kids, I say kids because Junior is 19 and Dani is 17, were born and raised in another religion. It wasn't until just a few months ago, because of a set of “circumstances”, that Junior left that religion. Dani continued for awhile after Juniors exit but then she too began to see that it was time for her to leave.

Not long after that Junior became interested in our coworker Alexandre's ministry in the Habiteto. A friendship and a Bible study began. Just two or three weeks into that study both Junior and Dani made professions of faith in Christ as their Savior.

So, why are they our “Wonder couple?” Well, they both are very talented. Junior is a musical genius, at least from my perspective. There doesn't seem to be an instrument that he cannot play. He can sing. Which is a rare commodity in our circles. Not only that but he knows how to help other people sing! He also does musical arrangements. Dani, though still in high school, is training to be a nurse and she too is musical. She plays the flute.

The real Wonder comes as results of God's gift of salvation. After having been raised in another religion for their entire lives, the fact that they were able to come out is a wonder of God's grace. We're praising the Lord for his blessing.

Both Junior and Dani are young in the Faith but very excited about their new relationship in Christ. Pray with us for them. We are praying that God continues to grow them for His glory.
