Beach Baptism

Yesterday afternoon we had the privilege of baptising about 20 teenagers and adults, mostly teenagers.  It was memorial day weekend and the beach was crowded despite rain all around us.  It was awesome hearing the group of about 60 or 70 cheering for each person as they declared publicly their commitment to Jesus.  The event [...]

Scott and John
