Victoria (mother) with Joanika, godfather, Joanes (father), me and Deacon Peter. Oops, almost forgot the baby's older brother standing in the shadow of the godfather!
Joanika wearing the baptismal stole after the baptismal ceremony.Joanika Benoit was baptized this morning. She is the daughter of Victoria and Joanes Benoit. Joanes was one of our boys years ago. He is now married with two children and works as both a plumber and welder.
It is very satisfying to see the cycle completed, to know that at least one of the graduates of Espwa has job skills, has married and is out in the world working and raising kids.
