The Dubai Church Had 7 Incredible Baptisms in 7 Consecutive Weeks
RD Baker – Lead Evangelist of Dubai: “Let the one who boasts boast in the Lord.” (1 Corinthians 1:31) I am so excited to “boast” about the miraculous things that God is doing in the Middle East through the mighty Dubai Church Family! While April continues to steadily recover from her recent health issues in Los Angeles, the disciples in Dubai are keeping the mission alive! On Friday after church, our new brother Fredrick from Cameroon was baptized! Amazingly, the Spirit has blessed the Dubai Church with 7 baptisms in the 7 weeks that April & I have been here in the USA!

for Fredrick’s baptism!
The church is being nobly led by RJ Castro and Dao Henderson, who have truly taken on our hearts for building family! Excitingly, one of our incredible remnant couples – Praveen & Angel Bisht – have been officially appointed as the first Shepherding Couple-in-training for Dubai!

April & I are also grateful for Cory & Jee Blackwell’s recent 10 day visit to Dubai as they are the World Sector Leaders for the Middle East! Cory was able to preach at two Friday Worship Services! The Blackwells so greatly encouraged all of the Dubai Brothers and Sisters!
Cory & Jee Blackwell were moved to tears at the
end of their 10 day visit with the
Dubai Church Family!
As God continues to resurrect His Kingdom in Dubai in this “Year of the Impossible,” we praise Him for the 19 baptisms in the first 20 weeks of 2017! Amazingly, after just 8 months, God has grown the original 6 Mission Team Members – along with the 7 restorations and place memberships in the Fall – to become 30 sold-out disciples who are ready to continue multiplying!
The Dubai Church sends their love to all of their
Sister Churches around the world!
Thank you for the thousands of prayers for April as we remain hopeful of our return to Dubai after the GLC! We praise God as well for the incredible hearts of the disciples in the USA who have been so sacrificial in the Spring Missions Contribution as these funds help to support RJ, April & me!
