Sarah's Baptism

Last Sunday, January 17th, Sarah was baptized into God's family. It was an awesome time. We had it after the 11 o'clock service for those that wanted to come. We were so excited that 1/2 of her Godparents could be there. Pastor Erick Sorensen came for J-Term at seminary, and so he was able to be there for the baptism. We look forward to seeing the rest of the family in June. I know Melissa is itching to hold her Goddaughter.


Pastor Brad was the officiating pastor. It was very special to us that he and his family were a part of the day. The Pribbenows were there along with Erick, Pastor Dave, Mandy, and Gramma. We sang a hymn a capella, Adam & Erick read Scripture, and we went through the parent's and Godparent's questions to promise to raise Sarah in a home that loves and desires to obey God, and to pray for her to come to a mature committment to Christ as she gets older.


Then, Pastor Brad invited everybody there to come up and watch as Sarah was baptized. After that, he held her as he talked referencing Psalm 62 and the song I picked for Sarah.



Finally, we all met up at Don Pablo's for some lunch.
