Baptism By Fire And Water
Our Area Medical Advisor serving in Manila had family visit last week. They brought thier 5 sons and the youngest one, Sam, just turned 8 and as the family is very wealthy they were looking for an exotic baptismal spot. The older boys were all baptised in oceans around the world. They were thinking of the China Sea for Sam and I said "How many people can say they have been baptised in a volcano?" and I suggested hiking to Lake Pinatubo. They loved the idea of being baptized with "fire and water". It was a great day and we were happy to be able to share it with the Jafek family.

Typhoon Conson
This is the road just outside out gate.
Taken from our driveway, the road in front of our house.This is the latest typhoon to come ashore in our area. The media always makes more of these things than we do. It does'nt take much wind and rain to wash away a house with no foundation made of sticks and grass or gathered junk. For these people it is all taken in stride, a part ov their everyday lives.
