Title: Marina Neighborhood House, Mayagüez, Puerto Rico.
Description: Bath time is a welcome event. For many of the children this is only bath time because of the lack of facilities in their crowded living quarters. Reuben is 9 months old. Many of the boy babies do not have their hair cut until they are over a year old, primarily because of a promise made by the mother to some saint, according to the Roman Catholic belief in Latin American countries. The presence of Roman Catholic children in the nursery give us a wonderful opportunity to give witness for the Protestant faith.
