I became a Christian January 8, 2003. On January 9, I began attending my first Alpha course. Six weeks later, during the Alpha retreat, as I was waiting to be prayed over by our small group leader, a man from another group sitting next to me told me he was accepting Christ as his Savior. A chill went through me. I asked him how it felt to go into the evening knowing he was going to do this, and he told me that he just realized, while sitting there, that he was going to do this. A bigger chill went through me and I was unable to stop a few tears from slipping out. I realized then that the most joyful experience I would ever have as a Christian would be witnessing someone else becoming a Christian.
