More ‘firsts’ for Pasha Dzikanyanga
Pasha has done it again. The amazing
little girl has added another first on the list of her feats so far. Yesterday, Sunday, 4th November
2012, she became the first child to be baptized during the English service at
Chitakale CCAP in Mulanje. As if that was not enough, Pasha became the first
child at Chitakale CCAP Church to undergo a lone baptism ceremony. She was the only
child to be baptized on the holy Sunday; Stella and I felt extremely honoured during the historic ceremony.
Pasha was baptized at exactly 8:45
am on the cool Sunday morning. The entire Chitakale CCAP Congregation held its
breath as the little Pasha was baptized. The little girl smiled broadly as the
Minister recited the baptismal script. Her smile was spasmodically interrupted
by the shouts of “ah!” from the little Pasha, to the amazement of the entire
English-speaking Chitakale congregation. At two months and three weeks, the
little has already started building her vocabulary full of the usual child
gobbledygook.
The minister blessed the little
girl and wished her a long, healthy, prosperous and blessed life. He also went
on to congratulate her for making history by becoming the first child to be
baptized during the English service. It was amazing, how I wish you were there!
Pasha availed her
record-shattering tendency and competitive spirit on the 12th August
when she became the first child to be born through the cesarean section on
that day at Mulanje Mission Hospital. A record five babies were born through cesarean section and the marvelous Pasha led the way. So don't be surprised when I tell you that Pasha has broken another
record, it’s her nature.
