A couple of Sundays ago, the Laffoons and I had the privilege of going to a baptism out in the village at one of the churches. It was a pretty cool experience. The church meets in a store front and is fairly new. A few of the members got saved, so this was the first baptism this church had.
Here's the bridge over the river we had the baptism in.
We caught a woman taking her bath as we came up the river. :)
We had our baptism a little further up though.
And the Cosmos are in bloom so they are everwhere!
The tradition is you walk from the church to the baptism site. And while you walk, you sing a worship song. Here was the church walking up the path to the river.
This guy got in first to clean the algae off the top of the water.
After each person comes out of the water, the crowd sings a song. It was really neat.
Cows in the background...what baptism would be complete without it?
