Following Christ in baptism

Today was a special day for us as we were able to see seven of the children from the home be baptized along with our son Garrett. Kevin had the great privilege of baptizing him and being able to baptize Yadira who is one of the kids who lives with us in our house.

Many gathered around the pool at Greg and Eva's house (the casona). What a blessing to have that! It was great to see the enthusiasm of those who were being baptized and all who witnessed this step of faith taken by those being baptized.

It's always a joy to see new believers showing their love to the Lord by following him in this important symbol of dedication to Him. We look forward in seeing more of the children at the home grow closer to Christ in their relationship with him.

How awesome to baptize so many like that, and especially Garrett. I know y'all are so proud. Praying for you!

Really enjoyed catching up on what you are doing in Honduras. Does not sound like you are doing much. Maybe I can round up some more kids for you so you won't be soooo bored. Really happy to see the baptisms, especially little Garrett. Take care.
