HAPPY DAY

This is Sunday, worship day for us at the Watcherapon Church of Christ. That is a special day for us to see the friends that we have made here in the past 3 years. We feel so welcome. The congregation has a translator and earphones for us as well as English and Thai on the screen as we sing the songs. We sing so many of the same songs and it is inspiring to hear Thai and English singing together.

Today was special as a Thai woman indicated that she was ready to put on her Lord in baptism. The baptism here is a little different than we are accustomed to. All of the church members walk right up the baptistry to watch the baptism. What a personal feeling that gives. They sing together and pray together and welcome the new Christian.

  1. And the angels rejoice. I think that when someone is baptized we should ALL crowd around. What a wonderful welcome into your new life.
    Love to you all, LeAnn
