Saturday night before a baptism

There is a problem with the drain in the baptismal font at the church. So, in order to get ready for a baptism, the members roll up their sleeves and form a bucket brigade--they fill buckets and garbage cans with the water and haul them into the restroom to pour down the drain. They clean out the font and refill it. This takes quite a bit of time, but they are happy to do it. Mai (in the white shirt) was baptized about 3 months ago. Brother Jack (plaid shirt), a young single adult, is a counselor in the branch presidency and doubles as the branch mission leader. Tam is a beautiful young single adult. These kids are great!

Brother O (black shirt) was baptized two weeks before we arrived in Thailand and is a real stalwart in the branch.

These kids just about live at the church and are serving all the time.
