Sumy Baptism


On Saturday morning we attended a baptism of a new member of the Sumy Branch. He is a 23 year old young man named Sergey. The baptism service was actually held at a river a few miles from the downtown area. It was COLD! Not sure the temperature but you could see your breath and there was a constant breeze blowing to keep things cold. There is a local gentleman who is very friendly with the Elders who owns a bus. He offered a free ride for everyone to go to and from the baptism. There were about 20 of us who attended the service. This was the first convert baptism in the area in some time so the Branch members were very excited.
