Successful Othello Series Brings Record Baptisms

Memorial Day weekend was certainly memorable at the Othello (Wash.) Church when Lyle Albrecht, evangelist, baptized 15 new members following almost six weeks of prophecy lectures.

The baptisms were truly a rebirth for the congregation. As one long-standing member put it, “It’s the largest baptism in this community in the history of this church.” The newly-baptized group included two families whose children have joined Pathfinders and are anxious to be involved.

The evangelistic series attracted an encouraging attendance, and more baptisms may be forthcoming. Current members renewed their own commitments to the Lord while witnessing new commitments being made.
