Peace in Jesus, Boise, Idaho, celebrated seven baptisms during the first half of 2009. This home mission church reaches out to the Vietnamese community in Boise. One man who was baptized on Palm Sunday, Nghia Trung Nguyen, was the son of the first adult member of Peace in Jesus to be baptized nine years ago. It was Nghia’s father’s dying wish that all of his family members would become Christian. Nghia is the tenth member of his family to be baptized.
