Funeral service bears fruit: A funeral is a great opportunity to share the gospel in Zambia. During a burial service there may be three or more funerals conducted at the same time. One of the church members at our newest work, Calvary Baptist Church, had a death in his family. During the funeral at the cemetery, Pastor Honson was asked to preach for another burial because they did not have a preacher. He gladly accepted saying he was not preaching to the dead but to the living. He conducted both funerals at the same time. After the service, several people asked him where his church was. He was able to make a follow up visit the next day. Four members of one family and another man accepted Christ.
