Arun Lal Chakma had been one of those that responded eagerly to the Good News. Although he knew that his family was quite opposed, Chakma happily joined those to be baptized that day. As locals finished final preparations fo rthe service, Chakma received a surprise visit from his oldest son. The bright and sunny day suddenly darkened with clouds of the son's anger--anger that his father was betraying all he had taught his son, and anger that the father was taking up a strange new religion. Harsh words were spoken, and attempts to explain fell on deaf ears. Suddenly, the son drew a gun, pulled thrigger, and put a bullet through his father's head, ushering him unexpectedly into the presence of his newly-found Savior.
