Baptism of Seven (7) souls in Isumbo church of Christ a Newly started congregation...!
I made several preaching trip last June 2010 in Southern part of Palawan, particularly in the village of Isumbo Espanola, Palawan, to help Brother Judson Montimor and bro. Danilo Belviz (my younger brother in the flesh) to open a new local congregation there. At first, we had an initial (3) three families contacts for Home bible study; these families are in the faith of “Assemblies of God”. But sadly, two years ago some their group members was scattered due to the extra-marital affair of their pastor to one of the lady member in their congregation. But these three (3) families were one of those who continue in their faith having lead by their “woman preacher” they called it “pastora”.
Fortunately, two (2) months ago these families were meet by my brother and Judson Montimor while they are doing a Bible tracts (“THE ONE TRUE CHURCH” and “BAPTISM ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE”) distribution in this community. These Families were become interested having more questions asked to brother Judson Montimor and bro. Danilo Belviz, since then, the Home Bible study had been arranged and conducted every Friday afternoon and I am fortunate to study the Bible with these interested family.
This last June 26/2010 I preached again to these families, our lesson was about “ENTERING THE CHURCH”. Then invitation song was extended and seven (7) souls came forward, confessed their faith and they were baptized into Christ! To God all be the glory. - In Christian love, Dario D. Belviz

As scheduled, I preached to the newly brethren in Isumbo congregation a lesson about “AFTER CONVERSION” as newly converted into Christ, I want them to remember some things; that they are now a New Creature, Babes in Christ, facing critical period, and there is a possibility of falling among Christians. But God wants them to; Love Him first, Study the word, pray always, Assemble regularly, give, and help save others.
