Expressing Their Faith: The Girls Are Baptized

Our girls all placed their trust in Christ at a young age, but baptism was something they were a bit shy about.  We would talk about it over the years, but we wanted them to lead on this, so we didn't push it.

Over the last year, they all expressed readiness and this summer two sisters from our church also expressed their readiness to be baptized.  It all came together on Sunday.

 Quinn, Emma, Sarah, Lindsay, Brooke, and Rachel

We all sang "I Have Decided To Follow Jesus" before the baptisms

 Friends and family joined us at the house of one of our church families, their girls were being baptized too.

They went oldest to youngest, so Lindsay went first.  She spoke off the cuff about her testimony of coming to Christ.

 Emma had written hers as a guideline but didn't want to read it.  She shared how the Lord is working in her life.

The rest of the girls read theirs.  That was just fine.  

 Happy faces

 Thank you Lord for these young women and for your work in their lives.

The girls will always remember this day, and the fact that they shared it with their friends.
