John 15:16 for Linh

Anh & Linh in Anh's Baptism Day
Linh, our staff cried before us one time in our prayer time when we started this church. She said why she is "barren" spiritually. She prayed earnestly, had heart for mission completely, shared compassionately but no one came to Christ through her testimony or witnessing. We asked God to empower her and make her fruitful. And God started working. Last year, she brought 5 people to Christ and Anh is her uncle.
Mrs. Hoa testifying

God's purpose for His children is to bear much fruit and fruit that will last (John 15:16). We used to buy things in a good shop in our market that Mrs. Hoa owns. She used to work for the army of Vietnam as her dad and her husband. With a family that is happy, successful and rich, she still looked for something that missing in her heart. Till she talked to Linh because she found something diffrent in Linh. Linh shared with her about the eternal life in Jesus Christ. On the first Sunday she attended church, she cried as she entered the church and listened to the hymn "Near to God." She said she had been looking for something missing but she did not know. She was born in Christmas Eve so she used to think she must be God's child but no one told her about that. Till she met Linh. She knew that it was Jesus who came to earth on that Christmas Eve to save her and give her assurance for living with Him. God really works in and through Linh to prove her that He has called me to bear fruit and fruit that will last.
