Maya's Russian Orthodox baptism 10_11_09

While visiting my brother and his family in Oklahoma City, my daughter was baptised into the Eastern Orthodox Church. (This video is only a small portion of the service.) Her patron saint is Salome, the Myrr Bearer. Her Orthodox godparents are my brother Toma and his wife Markella (their saint names). Many thanks to Father Anthony Nelson for his willingness to perform this ceremony on such short notice and with such dedication. Maya is very happy, as am I! God give her many years! (Also, I enjoy the part at the end where Nicholas says he wants to get baptized too.)
