Kingston's Baptism August 22nd, 2010

Father Welcomes all his children

To his family through his Son.

Father giving his salvation,

Life forever has been won.

Little children come to Me,

For my kingdom is of these.

Life and love I have to give,

Mercy for your sin.

In the water, in the Word,

In His promise be assured:

Those who are baptized and believe

Shall be born again.

Let us daily die to sin;

Let us daily rise with Him,

Walk in the love of Christ our Lord,

Live in the peace of God.

Father Welcomes all his children

To his family through his Son.

Father giving His salvation,

Life forever has been won.

It was a special day today. Our little Kingston was reborn into a life of Christ and Christian faith. The congregation sang the hymn written above before the baptism, and it really touched my heart. Wonderful friends and family from all over came to celebrate this day with us. I know the Godparents/Sponsors that we chose for Kingston will watch over him physically, emotionally, and most importantly spiritually. Jill, my life-long best friend, and my sister Lindsey are Kingston's Godmother's. Matt, Emerson's best friend, and my brother Rob are his Godfathers.

Kingston was all smiles for Pastor!

Papa Muth read aloud Mark 10:13-16 to the congregation during the baptism.

Lindsey, Robbie and Otto during the baptism. Otto kept saying 'hi' to the bell choir. So cute!

Godparents taking it all very seriously.
