Baptism at the Beach


On Sunday, August 3, 2008, eight people were baptized in the "cold-ish" waters of the Pacific Ocean at Murciélago Beach. The five young people to the right in the photo have been a part of the church youth ministry for several months. They gave testimony of the decisions they have made to follow Christ at youth camp and because of the work of their mentors at church. The couple to the left have been coming to the church for five months. They were separated when they began to follow the Lord and have since seen their marriage restored. They also gave testimony to the patient teaching they have received from those in the congregation who have come alongside them on the road of discipleship. The lady in the green shirt is Mom to two of the teens. We pray that her husband will soon take the step of believer's baptism as well. We are very grateful for this evidence of good ministry being done during our four months in the States.
