Hope Shines





On Sunday afternoon Tammy and I baptized Gabby, a member of our Summer '07 team. Gabrielle Hope grew up in The Netherlands, Portugal, England and the States. We thought it was pretty cool that ever since she was a little girl she had thought of being baptized in Africa some day. This was her first ever trip to Africa and she took the plunge in this beautiful mountain stream surrounded by friends who love her on the final day of her time here. She said her baptism symbolized her declaration, "No turning back." Hurrah!
