Guerlina Dessanon's Baptism

Fun before the serious business of the morning.Group members, and non-members, minus the George Family, who arrived late but in time for the baptism.

Denis leads his wife into the water.

He listens to last-minute instructions from those on the sand.

Denis reads the baptismal prayer from a paper,

which at this point is almost dry,

but got more and more wet

each time it was necessary to repeat the prayer and ordinance.

We lost track of exactly how many times Denis tried to immerse Guerlina, but by the time he did the paper was definitely WET!

OK. One more time,

and then Guerlina was an officially baptized member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
