Baptism At the Beach





We at the Bread of life English fellowship were priviledged to be able to baptise 5 people on November 11. The pics you see are from the beach where we did it. It was wonderful. I was priviledged to be able to lead the service and to baptise two of the candidates and assist with the others. I was initially skeptical about doing it on the beach and the waves you see were powerful. God baptised me several times. But it was a really powerful witness to the other foreigners who were on the beach (there was a french speaker who got baptised and did his testimony in french. At the same time there was a group of frenchmen having a BBQ right next to us. God works) and did a lot to bring our church together. We spent most of the day there having a BBQ. It was great. I will be the first to suggest doing it there again next time.

God Bless

Baptisms at the beach are great. We did it in very much the same way in Trinidad. We also have done it at Morden beach a couple of times (but I'm our "waves" were quite a bit smaller than yours).

Cliff, you are blessed in what you do. Everything you put your hands to is blessed. God is doing great things through you. And whether this is doctrinally sound or not, I think DAD is cheering you on.
