Water Baptisms

We had a few water baptisms at church recently. This is not a place to try to persuade you to our belief in water baptism, and we appreciate and respect the sincere choices our friends and family have made regarding their own children. But this was a very special day for us. I was water baptized, and Faith was very eager to be submerged as well. God has given her a fearless heart and a willingness to be martyred and persecuted for her faith one day. She wants to give her whole life to Christ and she is beginning to understand her purpose and that her life is hidden in Christ. Praise the Lord!

Recently our beloved church fellowship has put a halt to our meeting together because, as no one is paid there, all the dads are working full time to support their families, which does not leave the necessary time for their ministries and more importantly, their families! Praise the Lord that our church fellowship did not collapse because of a sin or a disunity.
