    Jeremiah
    Jill
    Kalena
    Joel

A list of names to many folks. Some of you probably can't even put a face to the name. We can!

Tonight, in an incredible ceremony at the YMCA pool just around the corner from our church, these eleven souls, saved by grace, followed Christ in baptism!

Oh, the stories. Saved out of pride. Saved from despair and hopelessness. Saved from wallowing in their sin. Saved to a new hope. Saved to relationship with the God that loves them.

Saved to eternal life in Jesus Christ.

Oh, the wonder of it all! God is so-o-o-o-o-o-o good.





The Crowd!

The obedient eleven:
Kalena

Joel

Jill

Jeremiah

Veronica

November Baptism




Bryant was saved last year and came to our church this year. He realized he needed to obey the Lord in believer's baptism. It was a cool November day, but not as cold as it could have been!

Latest Baptisms, part 2

Sometimes we baptize in a pool (even a small pool works!) Here is Chris following the Lord in Believer's Baptism.
Sonya.
Elijah!
Rosie :-)
Chelsie.

This was a great, great time, seeing new believers identifying publicly with their Savior. Pray for our new believers to grow and become strong disciples of Christ!

More than a building...our people...latest baptisms

Sometimes we baptize in a local pond.
It feels very "New Testament" here.

We praise the Lord for two young men who obeyed the Lord in believer's baptism!
