A baptism day is a beautiful day in Tobago

Festus wore a white robe over his baptism clothes.  I told him he looked like an angel!

Nathaniel is so happy.  He had asked several times over the past couple of months when he could be baptized.  He was very prepared for the occasion

Sherlon, who  visits our home regularly, was baptized four weeks ago.  Everybody that sees him says he is a different boy. He knows the Linton's love him.  He decorated our Christmas tree
