Here are some pictures from our recent baptism in the canal! Seven new believers took this awesome step of obedience to the Lord and many friends came to celebrate God's glory with us. It was an awesome day!

The first one is Khun Jamlong, who is a 60 year old man who lost a leg to diabetes. He is becoming a student of God's word, and wanting to teach others about Jesus. Next is Mary (or May), our housekeeper. She is learning every day to appreciate that God's love is eternal. She has had a lot of problems in her life, but God is really growing her.
This is Pa Waw, Jamlong's wife. She is a joyful believer.
This is Serena. She has been a follower of Jesus for a few years, and has been every faithful. God is changing her life, day by day.
3 others from our cell groups were baptized that day as well.
"Thank you Jesus for saving these precious souls and bringing them into relationship with You, with us, and with one another. Keep them faithful to You, fill them with you love and grace, give them a hunger for your Word. Amen"

this is so incredbily wonderful. my heart and soul rejoice with you as you all experience the baptism of these new believers. I miss you all so much yet am so excited to see what God is doing in Thailand, specifically with your cell group in Chacheonsago. Praying for you so much and would love to hear from you when you can write.
