Grab a Garment of Faith

Story by V. Michelle Bernard

“We all have people we love and want to experience Jesus’ salvation—whether it’s a son, daughter, husband, wife, co-worker, family member, neighbor or classmate,” says José D. Espósito, assistant to the president for Evangelism at the Columbia Union Conference.

“Why not take a step of faith and tell them that Jesus is the answer to all their problems and the source of true happiness?”

One way to take that step of faith is to contact a pastor—like the Columbus area pastors pictured above—a local conference or the Columbia Union to obtain a “Garment of Faith” (a baptismal robe) in preparation for a friend or loved one.

Espósito says that members often pray and wait for years without someone giving their lives to Jesus. “We not only pray for them, but we also tell them, ‘I already have your Garment of Faith ready for the day you decide to surrender your life to Jesus.’”
