These are a few photos of a Baptism of two of the people in the church that we attend. We had to go to a neighboring town to Baptize them because their is not a place for them to do it here. It is very hard for people in this culture to submit to Baptism because of the pressure from their families. They view Baptism as a denouncement of the Catholic faith. Some families have disowned their own family over this. These people have been saved for some time but finally are taking that leap of faith. It was such a blessing to see and we had a wonderful day of worship and fellowship with these fellow believers.

The faith of a child
I remember when I was a child and everything just made sense. I just believed in things, they were so real and I had so much passion. Well, not to say that I have lost all of that because the inner child is still there but there is nothing like the faith of a child. It does us all good to remember the faith we once had and to try to find the inner child in us again. Here is a very touching video to help remind us.
