Kolya Commits His Life to Jesus

This last Sunday, Kolya surrendered his life to Jesus and was baptized. He is one of the Ukrainian orphans who have been with us the last few years. Kolya is 17 years old. He has a charismatic personality and a kind heart. After spending time studying the Bible with me, and our Ukrainian friend, Dima Grishchuk, and talking and praying together, he said that he was ready to give his life to Jesus and be baptized. He said that he has actually been thinking about this since the last camp at the end of last summer. The photo above right is the teenagers at the church surrounding Kolya and praying for him after his baptism.
