Baptism/ church picnic

We had a special service on the picnic grounds in a covered pavillion.

Some of the teenagers did some dramas we have been learning. This one is called the Lolipop drama.
Another drama, this one is the Chair.

Then we prayed for the three that were to be baptized.
Then we baptized Jorge (69) and Lucha (65), they are husband and wife.
This is Jorge.
Then we baptized Manuel (80), due to sickness he couldn't get into the water, so we just poured a handful of water on the back of his head.

Then we ate and had a fun time with all the kids playing in the pool. About 60-70 showed up over the course of the day. Many new people came and some that have recently begin to come to the church came and I think they feel a little more like part of the family. What a blessed time we had. Thank you Lord for your provision and for a beautiful day.
