This a picture of the beautiful building of the Driftwood Church of Christ in West Hollywood, Fla. If you look carefully, you can see several rigs of the sojourners parked in back. Not only did we do a lot of physical work there, but also a great deal of evangelism. In personal evangelism, bible studies certainly are important, but one aspect of personal work that can be overlooked, is follow up. These new converts are new in the body of Christ, and often need a great deal of encouragement. They need the fellowship, the belongingship of this new family. Acts chapter 2 is excellent instruction in helping new converts know they are a part of the church. I can not stess to much how important after baptism teaching and encouragement is to the new converts. It is my opinion that one of the main reasons that we hear of new converts not remaining faithful is often a lack of follow up with them. Let't remember we all need encouragement. Don
