Here are some of the words to the beautiful song we sang to prepare for the baptism.
"Child of blessing
Child of promise
Baptized with the Spirit's sign
With this water
God has sealed you
Unto love and grace devine"
Aunt Katie and Uncle Jeff stood up with us to be Stephen's Godparents. We admire their Christian faith and love the way they love Stephen.
Christopher and Dylan were also baptized by Martyn. Brandon loved getting a closer look since he was just baptized a few months ago.
A note from Nana:
"Welcome to the family of God. Stephen, you were so good at your baptism - no crying, looking into the congregation. You were radiant with the Holy Spirit - glowing with joy. It was truley a blessed moment - like you knew something very special was happening to you. Your parents and your Godparents were all beaming radiantly also. You are special, Stephen, and we love you more and more each day."
Aunt Katie made the cake and it was YUMMY! Mommy made Gandmama Hill's pound cake and that was yummy, too!
Dylan and Stephen.
Our last night together. I hope we get together again soon!
Elizabeth's cousins: Holly, Erik and Anne
