The penultimate day was a free day, but better than that Tania and Guillihermo got baptised at the beach. It was amazing and if i hadn't already been baptized i would have stepped down into the water myself! Tania looked gorgeous in a white summer dress as with a whoop she declared Jesus Christ lord of her life and was officially ´dunked´. I got the whole thing on video including an emotional clip of her hugging her friends and a message home, it had been a huge decision to do this without her family there, but after the last 6 months she didn't want to wait any longer.
Guillihermo went next, a crazy man of God from the jungle in Brazil he reminded me of a modern day John the baptist with his crazy big beard and wild curly locks, his heart for God was massive, this guy lived to tell the gospel to people. He came out of the water and sprayed everyone (cameras included) with an ecstatic splash of water.
After a couple of hours we head to a top Chinese restaurant for a slap up meal a thank you from the leaders for all our hard work, flexibility and sacrifices of giving up beds, and at times showers! M.O.L.A. was amazing it had been the best part of the DTS varied, challenging, beach life - evangelism.
The last night i stepped down onto the beach while the Chilean team did circus stuff juggles, man on stilts etc it was the perfect time of day the Spaniards were leaving the Beach to get dinner, the sun was setting and i nearly had the Waves to myself. My thoughts were directed to the next bit of life, in the last month i had been thinking alot about life and the feeling was no More talking about what you´ll do when you grow up, it was time to do, so what were my biggest visions, dreams and passions? because whatever they were it was time to do them.
