Missionaries Uruguay Jaimie and Tammy Lancaster Special Services in Iglesia Emanuel
"See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? " Acts 8:36b
A child's swimming pool served as a makeshift baptistry as four people symbolically went from death to life and publically identified themselves with Christ. There were actually five people who went through 30 weeks of discipleship classes but due to health issues, only 4 were able to be baptized.
This special Saturday night service was an exciting time for the church, as well as, Pastor Gerardo Acevedo who had the privilege of baptizing his son, David. The church also rejoiced when a person from the congregation accepted Jesus Christ during the invitation.
Sunday night was designated as a special missions emphasis service that focused on the unreached of the world and the need for prayer, workers and support.
