Oct 9th
- Voronezh Day Three
In 2001, Stefan carried in chemo to children at the Voronezh
Children's Hospital. This trip we learned the teenager who received
the first dose of chemo was alive and well. From a trip of
smuggling chemo, that could have caused his imprisonment, to the
tragic 911 trip of last year, where he purposed in his heart to
marry Tanisha, to a trip where he learned of a life saving results,
Stefan's love for Voronezh was rewarded with his Baptism in the
frigid waters of the Voronezh River. It was only fitting that
Tanisha was here on this day, as his bride, to witness his Baptism.
Pastor Don Crane heroically waded into waist deep water, dragging
Stefan who wanted to stop in knee deep water, where he performed the
rites of water Baptism. It took less time to get out of the water
than it did to get into it. The team cheered and cried as they sang
and praised the Lord while watching from the shore.
