The following are photos from a Mikveh ceremony we had in August, 2001. Mikveh, or water immersion, is a public statement of our decision to give our lives totally to God. "Do you not know that as many of us as were immersed into Messiah Yeshua were immersed into His death? Therefore we were buried with Him through immersion into death, that just as Messiah was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. (Romans 6:3,4)

Yeshua said, "Go and make disciples of all nations, immersing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you. And lo, I am with you always, even to the ends of the earth." (Matthew 28:19)
