A Sunday Morning in November
We enjoyed our service yesterday in Las Palmas, with guest speaker Ismael from the church in Jesús MarÃa. I took a few quick video clips and photos so you could see the church in action on a typical Sunday morning. It’s less than a minute long…
Happy Birds
Something to cheer you up. This tree in the community of Jesús MarÃa in Ixtapaluca, Mexico City, was apparently FULL of very happy birds.
Baptisms (and Anniversary Service)
As most of you know by now, last Sunday was a very special service! It was the 8th anniversary of the Path of Life Bible Church in the community of Jesús MarÃa. But it was also a joint service – between the church in Jesús MarÃa and the new church in Las Palmas.
12 people were baptized on Sunday, from both churches. This was the first baptism service for the Las Palmas church (although some people in the church had been baptized before we officially started meeting.
Nathanael was the 12th disciple to be baptized. 🙂
I made up this video – about 4 minutes – to share with you, and also to show this morning to those who missed the service. It’s in Spanish, of course, so I’ll explain briefly.
This took place in the new baptismal tank in the new sanctuary in the church, so you can see the progress that has been made.
At the beginning, Pastor Ismael explained the theme – the unity of all believers. So you’ll see that. He shares a verse – you might be able to figure out what it is!
I would have posted more from the service, but so much was music-based, and YouTube gets skittish about that kind of thing because of copyright issues.
But there was congregational singing, there was a special women’s choir, participation from kids and youth, and Rod preached.
Afterwards, Ismael explains a bit about baptism, and then the baptisms begin!
It’s hard to get a picture, though I tried — but basically most people crowded around the stage to watch, with a few actually on the stage – those are the ones you will mostly see toward the end.
These are 12 people to pray for – and people that many of you have been praying for! Enjoy!
First Anniversary Service in Las Palmas (video)
Here are a few clips that I’ve thrown together of the service on Sunday. Due to copyright restrictions on YouTube, I haven’t included any of the music, but there are at least a few pictures at the end.
Anyway, it will give you a bit of an idea of who was there and what we did! Also, if you want to see more pictures, check out our photo gallery.

Here’s another Hannah & Nathanael classic for you, a video taken 10 years ago this very day in Cuernavaca.
