Michael Andre Sylvester receives
the Sacrament of Baptism
in Pomeroy, Washington, July 2002

 

Michael Sylvester listening to Fr. Miguel

Holy Rosary Pastor Father Miguel Angel Mejia Diaz talks with Michael before Baptism. Father Miguel wants to make sure that Michael knows what he is agreeing to. He wants to confirm that Michael wants to become a Christian because he wants to, not because someone has talked him into it.
