Maheedhar was in the US just a few years ago pursuing Masters program in Mech Engg in Bridgeport, Connecticut. After completion, he was pursuing a training at which time due to recession he had to come back to India. He was sick physically and discouraged in life when he came back but his friend Johny continued to reach out to him. Johny is a brother in the church in Hyderabad but who was a roommate of Maheedhar in Bridgeport who has been reaching out to him for almost 3 years now.
Initially, there was a lot of reluctance. But over time when he regularly came to church, he understood many things from the Bible and he had a change of heart. Though the Hebron church he previously went to had different ways to worship God (they had to remove their footwear outside before they came into the hall to worship God), he soon fell in love with the true God rather that majoring in minors and surrendered his life to the one true loving and compassionate God.
David was a teen who has been coming to the church for more than 1 year. He was introduced to the church by his uncle Anil who is a brother in the church. Initially the church was not very interesting compared to the friends he had in the world but as he kept coming his heart changed. Initially, Anil had to literally drag David to church but over time David had convictions where he was pushing Anil to come to church when Anil was sick. In his relationship with God David had to fight his battle in getting close to God. The expectation with David has been to be a fired-up disciple as it has been with other new baptisms in the church.
TO GOD BE THE GLORY.
