Baptismal Service

Joe, about to be baptized, giving a brief testimony. Dale & Dave, father & son will do the baptizing.

Leah, about to be baptized. Joe and Leah were both in Club 56 when I was the teacher so I'm very pleased to see the spiritual growth of both of them.



This is sweet Missy, a new person, both inside and out! Leah is standing behind Missy showing support as a good friend.



Today we actually went to both worship services: 9:30 & 11:00! The first service was to be a baptism service. It was wonderful. Joe and Leah, brother & sister, teenagers now, were both rather outstanding kids in Club 56 so I'm not surprised at this latest step in their spiritual growth. There were two others also, but the pictures of them are too dark to post. It was a wonderful service. We stayed for the second service because Jerod and Missy were going to give another testimony and we wanted to hear them. Well, another friend, home from China briefly, has been diagnosed with breast cancer. We all gathered around her for prayer as she was anointed with oil for healing! Wow! What a morning! Pastor Dave only gave a very shortened version of his sermon in both services. Thank you, Heavenly Father, for the presence we felt of the Holy Spirit in both services.
