More Souls Baptized into Christ  This act of public declaration of being one with Christ is always greatly celebrated. Kate Galvez claims she has witnessed previous baptisms.  She took her time and finally, she feels now is the right time.  "May pinanghahawakan na ako na relationship with God," ("I already have a firm relationship with God.")  she declares. She expects changes in her life and aims to be more active in church. JP Julaton, 15,  sees his baptism as an act of leaving his past behind and is now ready to put his life in Jesus' hands.  He expects God to change him little by little.

When he was 7, he lost his dad. At that same time, his mom was battling stage 4 cancer.  It didn't stop there.
