Water Baptism I
April 21, 2019
Praise God for His presence.
The weather was awesome.
28 brothers and sisters proclaimed their faith in Christ publicly and were baptized on this wonderful day. And more than 100 brothers and sisters joined the event.
Upon arrival, there was a huge crowd having dragon boat competition but it was finished when the Water Baptism started. We enjoyed the praise and worship led by our Filipino sisters.
Pastor Gavin explained the meaning of baptism, as in crossing the red sea, leaving our old self behind, buried with Christ and those being baptized would rise in Him. Then Pastor Gavin prayed for them and gave them their certificates.
After that all went to the water and were joyfully baptised in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Congratulations to brother Dee and sister Tin- lai.
After their Water Baptism, they had a simple yet honorable wedding ceremony at the beach to commit their marriage unto the Lord. Pastor Gavin blessed their marriage and took communion with them. All brothers and sisters were touched by their faith and God’s love.
Blessed are all who seek God and follow humbly.
Glory be to the Lord !
