Easter Baptisms!
Last Sunday five kids from my home, a dorm mom, and a few kids from the community were baptized at the church that is inside our children's home. I usually attend an English speaking church in another part of Seoul, but I left early to be able to cheer my kids on. After the baptisms the pastors invited up family members or close ones to hug and bless the kids. I was blessed to be able to go up and hold a couple of my boys and bless them. I sense for most of them their faith is has yet to fully bloom, but I'm blessed that they are interested and are seeking God. Enjoy the pics!
