Central Africa Republic—We praise the Lord for the first baptism performed in the Central African Republic. Seven souls were baptized by Brother Jean Bosco on April 9, 2022.
Every baptism is a special occasion, greatly celebrated in heaven and on Earth. However, this baptism also marked the entrance of the Reform Movement in one more country, which gives us double reason for celebration.
