Baptism Day!

Today was a really special day- Baptism Day! My good friend, Nastia, along with several other friends, were baptized in the river. It was a GREAT day for baptism! The sun was shining, the wind was blowing, and it was just so nice. We sang several songs, and one of the church elders gave a charge to the baptism candidates.

Nastia and me before the service.

Nastia and Zhenya. So goofy.

Ira and me. These are our excited faces!

Getting ready...

After Radik led us in singing, he bent down to corral one of his daughters. As he was doing this, the other daughter sneak-attacked from behind!

The charge to those being baptized.

Round 1: Alona and Olya.

Round 2: Nastia and Alla.

Yay!

Zhenya is so cool that he gets two baptizers.

Nastia getting a rose from a little friend that she tutors in English. Presh!

Stay tuned for Soccer Camp, Day 1!
