Joshua Tongol – Baptism in the Philippines

On September 6, 2009 eleven of us got baptized in the ocean in Subic, Philippines.

We publicly identified our new lives in Jesus Christ.

I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. (Galatians 2:20)

We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. (Romans 6:4)
