Emily's Baptism

For some reason my photos of Emily's baptism (major highlight of our trip to Israel) got left out of the stack for those last two posts. So here are some of our photos from the event.


That's Jordan in the background, across the the river Jordan; armed border guards on both sides. The sun was very bright!



And here's a first attempt at posting a short video--not sure how I even took this, much less if it's going to work on the blog. The voices of Debi (Nana) Blackburn and Sis. Heiner can be heard in the background; so come to think of it Debi probably shot this video.
Congratulations to Emily and thanks to Ben and his family for sharing a great family event with us.
