"Come to the Water...

...you who thirst and you will thirst no more."

This morning at sunrise, our church had a beach baptism. Approximately 145 people were baptized. I had the privilege of photographing the event. The conditions were harsh for photography. I did not submit most of these shots since you can't see their faces, but I really like the silhouettes. The sunrise was absolutely gorgeous!

This beautiful song is from a local band that has now made it to the big times!
