Another Day of Thanksgiving and Celebration

 A few weeks ago, I shared the photos and the story of the baptisms of Jennifer, Javier and Evelyn.

Today was another day to rejoice and be thankful.  Lorenzo, is one of our construction guys that has been working on projects.  I was not aware that he is Evelyn's father.

I drove Evelyn to her home one day and waved to Lorenzo as we left the clinic.  She mentioned that her dad had said that I was back working at the clinic.  I had no idea that there was a family relation.

So a few days later, I was out talking to Lorenzo as he was working on the Biohazard buidling.  For those of you who have never been to Montellano, I am warning you, it is HOT and that is saying  it mildly.  So, from time-to-time, I take the guys some containers of ice, when they are working.

We were talking about his family and we started talking about the church and his daughter being baptized. He said he was thinking about it too and was going to start to attend the Montellano congregation. He and his family were there the following Sundays and then he wanted to be baptized.

Kevin is talking to Lorenzo and is listening to his confession.  Lorenzo acknowledged that Christ came to the earth, lived a perfect life, died for our sins, was crucified and raised three days later.   Baptism gives us the access to the blood of Christ, that continues to cleanse us and save us.

Kevin, baptized Lorenzo.  He is the husband of our dentist, Manuela. Holding the microphone, is one of our physicians, Dr. Nehemias.

And then the angels rejoice!!

When we were finished, we returned inside to finish the worship service.  The week could not start any better than this!
