Easter Baptism


My friend got baptized; what a beautiful Easter. Congratulations!



In addition to this happy news, there's an awesome story I want to record:

Having traveled from LA for the baptism, I arrived with a very wrinkled dress shirt from a suitcase. Since I was going to be her sponsor at her baptism, went in search of a cleaners to get it ironed out. Well, while we were talking about this, a woman walked by and over heard us. She immediately stopped and offered to iron the shirt for me since she lived just down the road. At first I thought she was one of our group, but nope, just a random person walking by. Not wanting to impose, we said we'd look for a cleaners first, but she gave us her number in case we couldn't find one open at that hour. Well, we found a cleaner, just minutes from closing time, and they were willing to iron the shirt right away. And when they found the shirt was to wrinkled to iron well, they SOLD ME ONE OF THEIR EXTRA SHIRTS for $5, perfectly starched and ironed. Best shirt I ever wore. Kind strangers are the best. What a happy Easter!
