Emma's Baptism

This morning Emma was baptized at our church, Sugar Creek Baptist. Last May she prayed to accept Jesus as her Saviour and had been hesitant about the baptism part. In January she and I attended a Kid's Discovery class and the Children's Minister talked about salvation, baptism and communion. The kids were taken to the church baptistry and had the opportunity to see where it all takes place. When we left that afternoon she said she was ready to be baptized.
After the church service we went to Pappadeaux for lunch with my family. Thank you Grandma, Grammy and Coburn family for coming to her baptism and lunch!

We are so thrilled with her decision to give her life to Jesus and follow in His example of baptism by immersion.
