God provided nice sunshine, no wind, a heated pool... (and He kept the baboons on the other side of the golf course!)

for the baptism of 4 youth and 3 adults from the Island Church this past Sunday.

After a police escort to the home (due to the French Soccer team staying at the resort up the road), the candidates prepared for the plunge.

I read from Acts of Philip's baptism of the Ethiopian Eunuch, and Nathan confirmed the committment of each.

Emotions ran high as friends and family gave hugs of support.
A special 'thank you' to Steve and Lynn Douglas for their generous hospitality (and effort to arrange police clearance)!
