I'm so blessed to have children that love the Lord and that they totally understand the meaning of baptism. It's not about tradition, or doing it because it is a requirement of being a Christian.
I couldn't help but get teary eyed! It was such a profound moment!!! Miranda and her friends were all yelling in the sacntuary..."Wooo..Eli....woo Danny!!"
That night, six children and one adult were baptized!! God is good!!!!
Our Associate Pastor, Brad, talking with Eli before he gets baptized.
Yay!
Danny's turn! And there's Eli in the background!
Yoo hoo!!

what a joyful and unforgettable moment! kudos to you mom, for teaching them and training them up in the way they should go...
i hope i can train up my kids like you do...
God bless you!
That's wonderful! And I think it's even more wonderful that it was their choice and not something that you had them do out of tradition. I think it's more meaningful to them when they're the ones who decide to do it. Beautiful pictures!!!!
Beautiful Pics Alicia! You are a blessed family :)
YAY, YAY, YAY!!! Congratulations! What a wonderful moment!
CONGRATULATIONS!!! Wow..I can imagine the joy you feel to see that your kids are becoming strong Christians and are choosing to follow the Lord! So happy to see this..we need strong Christians in the next generations to come:D
Oh Alicia - what a beautiful, beautiful blessing! :) God is amazing!
That is just so exciting. I cried when my kids got baptized!
Once my hubby had a baptism to do and he called because the other people forget their towels, so I had to bring extra towels.
Hubby has to bring a change of clothes, of course, because otherwise he'll be preaching in wet shorts and a t-shirt, lol! (One time he forgot his clothes and I had to bring those too....hehehehe!)
Wow!! Yay! That is so exciting for them! :)
You must be so proud!
This is so fantastic! So glad I found your blog!
Congratulations!
Congrats!!
Thanks for the follow. I'm now following your lovely blog.
What a precious precious moment for them and you. How proud you must be!
AWESOME! God is leading you and your family and that is such a blessing!
That's just wonderful! In the church I grew up in, baptism was a dedication from the parents and profession of faith was when the children were old enough to make their own decision about their path. I was the only one in my family who went through profession of faith (no water involved.)
i love it, it is always heart warming when your children make the choice to be followers of Christ. WE baptize also in our church. The baptism for us is very symbolic, and we baptize wearing all white. Congrats on this moment in your and their lives.
Oh don't ya love it!!! I know you are soooo proud friend!
WOW~! They are not even my kids and this teared me up! Congrats!
Congratulations...and God bless you!
What a blessing! I don't hear too many testimonies like this and it's just so amazingly refreshing to see a family growing in Christ.
God IS good - praise the Lord. That is so awesome and I am so happy for you - that's my biggest prayer for my children, too.. How awesome.
