Last Night's Baptism Celebration

What an incredible night we had last night with our church family! The heart beat of our church is connecting people with their creator and I had the privilege to do just that as we baptized 15 people last night. It was exciting to see people take a step of faith and obedience to God's word. I was so humbled to be a part in this special night. There were people who have just made the decision to follow Jesus in recent weeks and others that had just never taken the step but have been followers for years. What God is doing in the lives of people in our church is so awesome that it brings tears to my eyes just typing this blog. I hope to post some photos later this week. It is undeniable that God is moving in amazing ways in our church and I can't wait to our next baptism celebration later this summer.
