Chapter 22 - Page 316 - Shanha Talks To Jesus

   "Let us labor for the master from the dawn to setting sun., Let us talk of all his wondrous love and care, when all of life is over and the work on earth is done. When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there. When the roll is called up yonder, when the roll is called up yonder, when the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there. When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there. When the roll is called up yonder, when the roll is called up yonder, when the roll is called up yonder, when the roll is called up yonder, when the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there."

    By the time they finished singing, Reverend Morris and all the new Christians were back on shore. Water dripped off their clothes onto the ground. Several people who hadn't been baptized spoke with Reverend Morris. When they told him Jesus spoke to them also, he asked if they would like to be baptized. They all declined. It was a new experience for the village people and they weren't ready to make the commitment.

   Jim and Rhasha hugged Shanha, and Jim told her he was very proud of her. Shanha's face glowed, and her smile warmed Jim's heart. Shanha's mother was already a Christian, and was happy that her daughter believed in Jesus.

   Reverend Morris, Jim, Rhasha, Shanha, Francis, Jackie, and Simbatu walked among the people, hugging them and shaking their hands. Finally the village people escorted the traveling salvation group to the boat. The Angel Town residents climbed aboard and waved good-bye to all their new friends. Reverend Morris called a reminder to everyone about the services in Angel Town at ten o'clock the next morning, and everyone said they would be there.
