A double blessing: father and son confirm their faith together

Anthony and Alfonzo Freitez, father and son respectively, were confirmed to the glory of the Lord at Divine Providence Lutheran Church in Chile, a congregation led by missionary pastor Adrián Ventura.

Both were beneficiaries of the Temporary Shelter Program for Immigrants run by the Fundación GLO Chile (GLO Foundation in Chile). Now, this father and his young son from Venezuela are official members of the congregation.

But the remarkable detail doesn’t end there. The confirmation was also officiated by a father and son duo, Pastor Adrián and Josué Ventura, who was visiting Chile at the time.

Regarding this pleasant coincidence, Pastor Adrián stated: “This is the first time in 28 years of ministry that I’ve seen a pastor father and his pastor son officiate the confirmation of a father and his son as they become new members of a Lutheran congregation. Thank you, beloved God!”

We give thanks to the Lord for this joy!
