C3 Denton Baptisms

Dustin and Domingo

Hey Folks,
Above, you see Dustin Aguilar, one of our leaders, baptizing Domingo Rodriguez. This is from our Baptism service this last Sunday, May 2. We were privileged to baptize 7 people on the Courthouse Lawn in downtown Denton. It was an unbelievable day for everyone involved with us, and a huge milestone for our church. Please celebrate with us the new life of God in the lives of these 7 people.

New Generations Baptisms

Pictures from New Generations Fellowship New Braunfels baptism in the Guadalupe River. This wonderful new hispanic church baptized 26 people on Sunday May 2, 25 of them from professions of faith through their church, and 1 who is from Dallas, who was just floating the river, saw the baptism, and paddled over and asked 'May I be baptized?". After confirming that in fact the person has trusted Jesus Christ, Pastor Joe Tostado baptized her!
New Generations Fellowship is a year and a half old; they have just gone to two services and each of the last 2 Sundays their Sunday Worship attendance has exceeded 200. They have baptized over 60 new believers. They also have a dozen Life Groups (home cell groups) and a strong Kids' Club after school ministry to at risk children.
