On Sunday, August 9, 2009 we got to celebrate our son's salvation!
On Wednesday, July 29th Connor asked Jesus in his heart. If you missed it, you can
see him pray here. We were having a little family reunion this weekend
at our house so we waited until Sunday for him to be baptized.
It is always the purest form of joy to see you child choose to follow Christ.
And it was a double dose to see Connor follow through
with his baptism. He was nervous when we first mentioned baptism.
(Remember, this is the child with sensory issues.)
But when Michael showed him in the Bible where Jesus commands us
to do so, Connor knew he would "try".
Pastor Barry asked, "Connor, is Jesus your Lord and Savior?"
And Connor said quite LOUDLY and VERY clearly, "YES SIR!!"
"It is my privilege, then, to baptize you in the Father,....
"....the Son, and the Holy Spirit."
AMEN, AMEN, AND AMEN!!

Glory! The pictures are incredible. We took many photos too when our girls were baptized. We even sent "New Birth" announcements with their baptism picures.
