Baptism for Two Acunas

On November 30th, both Ninito and Magdalena were baptized at Our Lady of Guadalupe Church in New Orleans. The priest, Father Tony, had just returned from a trip to the Holy Land and brought back water from the River Jordan to baptize the children with. It was a moving ceremony and we were happy to share the occasion with grandparents from both our families and our neighbors Claudia and Benicio. Ninito was sick, but fortunately had a brief respite and was able to make it to his baptism. Magdalena wore the dress that her mother, aunt and two nieces were baptized in.
