There are 6 that were baptized, 5 men and 1 woman. We also have the baptist with the group, Brother Sackie who is on the far left of the group. They are all great people who are so grateful to be members of the Church. Some of them have waited more than 2 years to be taught and baptized.
The one with his back to us is Nathan Sumo and he was so happy when he walked down in the water that he raised his hands and Brother Sackie who was to preform the baptism raised his hands in greeting.
This is James Thomas walking down into the water. He has been attending for about 2 years and has a strong testimony. He is very focused on serving a mission when he reaches the age 19. He is on the right side in the picture below with his friend Boima Togba who introduced him to the church. It was fitting that it was Boima's birthday on Saturday when his friends was finally able to be baptized. They will both be powerful missionaries one day. James father and mother live out in the bush and he is a Doctor. They are very happy that he is being baptized.
This is Samuel Zinnah on the left with his brother and nephew. Sam is 62 years old and has been attending for 2 1/2 years. He said this was the happiest day of his life. He has been really excited to become a member of the church.
This is Nathan Sumo on the right, his wife Alice in the middle and Nathan's younger brother Henry who were all baptized. Their son Joseph is also in the photo. Alice has been coming to church for a couple of years and Nathan and his brother started to come about 2 months ago. Nathan has been bringing a ton of his friends to church with him.
