A wonderful wonderful day!


 We had a very special baptism today.  Chris asked Robbie to baptize him in the Plymouth Bay.  Chris is a very sweet, humble fisherman and boat captain.  It was one of the most spiritually uplifting baptisms I have ever attended.  Robbie is no longer the branch mission leader as of last week but he did some amazing things while he was serving there.  He worked closely with the missionaries, investigators and new members.  Another special thing about today was that it was Chris' 40th birthday.  What a special special day.  We were so blessed to be part of it.  Plus it was pretty unique to baptize someone in the ocean.  And we think Chris was the first plymouth branch member to be baptized in the plymouth branch boundaries.  Very very special!!

  1. That is a wonderful, wonderful day. How great for Chris... who, as a matter of fact, looks just like what I picture when I think of a boat captain.

    Another notable day for Plymouth Harbor and the furthering of The Work.
