A Great Day!

Masayo has been looking forward to this declaration of faith in Jesus 

She was joined by Jumpei and Mizuho, on one side, and Yoko, on the other. Carol is welcoming the people from Shiohama and Harumi who have come to celebrate this step of faith. 
We were encouraged by their testimonies of coming to Christ, and the changes He has made in their lives.

 We had our baptismal service in a deluxe guest room of an apartment complex where one of the believers lives. With Shiohama reaching young families, there are always small children around.
Carol did a spectacular carrot cake to celebrate the event, and the children were the first to enjoy it.
Keiko, talking to Carol Love here, was baptized here just a few months ago. 


Next to the room in the pictures is a very large bathroom with a big jacuzzi. An unusual feature is that to the left of this jacuzzi is a floor to ceiling window, so when the drapes are drawn, people in the other room could look on, as others crowded around to watch and record the baptism.





We had the blinds down for the baptism, but guests who use the jacuzzi can have this view of Tokyo as they soak.
