Salvation and Baptism

 Last weekend (on February 6th to be exact), Norah officially asked Jesus into her heart! She talks about Jesus and God all the time and how much she loves them, but she hadn't officially asked Jesus to come into her heart. We had a great discussion at dinner that night (mainly about baptism, but it spurred conversation about salvation too). And Norah was ready. It was so special to be there as Joe read verses and prayed with her. And my mom was there too to witness it! So special!

The next morning Joey and Kylah got baptized at church. They have both been wanting to do this for a while, and the time had finally arrived. They talked with our children's pastor at church, and he agreed that they were ready. They knew that Christ was their savior, and they were ready to show others that they believed in Jesus by getting baptized.

 Joey was first.
 
And then Kylah.
 
They were all smiles afterwards.
It was such a great experience, and made us so thankful that our kids have willingly given their lives to Christ.
 
My mom was there along with Joe's parents (and Hannah!). The Adair's and Penner's also came to church to celebrate with us. Such a great Sunday!
