Manado - "The Listening Heart"

Kiky is having a hearing problem since he was in grade 3, and when he was in Grade 12 he lost his ability to hear completely. Even with the hearing aid, he could only listen to a soft noise, and because of that his schoolmates always make fun of him. But Kiky perseverence in study and learned only though lips reading brought him to the higher level every year with good grades.

Spiritually Kiky didn't interest to have a relationship with God. He never went to church and read Bible for a long time. Once when he was in high school he went to a service but that doesn't attracted him to study the Word of God. Until last year, after avoid it over and over again, he started to study the Bible with Dolfy, who persevered to teaches him despite his hearing problem.

From time to time, Kiky become more and more excited about studying the Bible, Last February he made a decision to put his sins behind, repent and get baptized into Christ, after 6 months of read the handwriting and the lips of his teacher. He become a new person, from impatient to a very patient man, from a harsh and rebelious, to a wise and forgiving person. All of these only because the power of God's Word he persevere every single day. Now, his family also fired up to come to the service with him.
