Last Sunday I had the great joy of baptizing two wonderful Christians!

I always give people opportunity to say something if they want to and husband said “I accepted Christ as my Savior and I want to follow Him in obedience and be baptized (since Jesus was baptized in the Jordan River).”  His wife said “I was sprinkled as a child and at that time the congregation made a commitment to take care of me.  Now I trust this congregation to take care of me.”

Her statement captured the essence of what it means to be part of the body of Christ – an individual who has been saved by Jesus and joined to Him by faith AND joined to a local body of believers who care for each other.

Sunday was a REALLY great day!

Blessings!
