SDA News - 19,000 Baptized

"Using a television network to link more than 4,000 locations across the East Africa nation of Tanzania, the Revelation of Hope campaign has had more than 19,000 baptisms so far. It was an historic event both for its introduction of new technology and the impact on the general public in the nation, Adventist Today has been told by a number of sources in Tanzania.
Mark Finley was the lead evangelist, up-linking from Mwanza, the second largest city in the country. It was the first international live event to be aired by the denominations Hope Channel Tanzania since its inauguration. The sermons were translated into Swahili, the most widely used native language in East Africa.
Nchemba said he was willing to come launch the Adventist campaign because he respects the contribution Adventists have made to the development of the nation. He further stated that the meetings will contribute to the decrease of crime because many people will accept Christ and change their lives. “When the word of God is spoken and followed, the burden of the government becomes light,” he said."
