OCEAN BAPTISM at FOZ DO ARELHO

Elder Huntington and Elder Rigby
at the chapel before the baptism in the area of
Caldas da Raina, a  city to the west of us,
on the Atlantic Coast.
This chapel does not have a baptismal font,
so they go to the ocean to do their baptisms.
It was pretty awesome :)
 
Last-minute prepping.... 
 
 The tides were out; so the water was very shallow...
...had to walk pretty far to get water deep enough to do the baptism.
(I zoomed in and this is the closest I could get with the camera!)
Some members of the Caldas branch. 
(The branch president is on the right in the suit
--a pretty young guy and a new father.)
 Can you say "windy...?"
(Gotta love photo bomber missionaries, LOL!!)

 ...a wonderful place!!
