It's amazing how God can change people's lives no matter how dark their backgrounds and past. It's also amazing how people surrender their lives to God and publicly declare their turning away from their old life. Through water baptism on June 23, 2012, 81 believers from several communities being ministered to by the Center for Community Transformation Group of Ministries outwardly demonstrated the inward change that took place in their lives after they asked Christ into their hearts and lives.
