Our catechumen, Anjali, was baptized yesterday morning. As you can see, we don't have a church of our own, we rent a room from a local Catholic school and it was quite a task to fill up the....er...baptismal pool! It was a beautiful service and Anjali was just radiant. I will have lots more pics and even an interview with Anjali coming soon!! Welcome Anjali! Many years to you!

Anjali's last name isn't 'Dave' is it? Is she from Long Island originally? The screen is small so I couldn't tell, but I went to college with an Indian-American girl named Anjali and would love to see her Orthodox (she was a Hindu of the Brahmin caste).
Incidentally, my mother's maiden name is Angeli, pronounced the same was as Anjali. There was also a Byzantine dynasty of the Angeli.
Nope, might be a different one, although her family is from India and she is a Hindu convert. I'm really looking forward to the email interview I'm doing with her! I've asked her to share about her Hindu background and its influence on her trek to Orthodoxy.
How wonderful! Many years to the newly illumined.
LOL - you caught me on tape gasping like a fish :-) Thank you for posting this video, I hadn't realized anyone had recorded it!
Wonderful! Many years, Anjali.
congradulations!!! I first heard about her story on Orthodox Circle.
I wish her many years!!!

Congratulations and God Grant you many happy and blessed years in his Holy Church! I don't want to turn this into a "oooh I think I know someone in the video" too, but your Godmother, the woman assisting you sure looks like a former parishioner of our parish (St. Anthony the Great San Antonio, Texas). Would her name happen to be Peggy M? Mom of 4, doctor husband David?
Yep, one and the same. In fact, Dr. husband David is standing next to the priest holding the book for him. Isn't that fun!
What a small world - yes, Peggy and David, in addition to being sponsors, were crucial to bringing me to Orthodoxy. Thanks to everyone for their warm comments:-)
