"Cultivating faith experiences that positively impact & sustain for a lifetime"
Liam Alexander I am glad I am baptized because I know God is with me all the time. God will also forgive me no matter what. God will never not forgive you and that’s why I love Him. He is the creator of the world and humanity and is the reason we are all alive. Galatians 6:9 — "And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap if we do not give up."
Emma Marie I am glad I was baptized because when I was younger I was not old enough to make my own choice to get baptized and make my connection with God even better. Being baptized also means gthat I get to have something in common with my mom and grandma. I have lots of tradition with them that involve God. That is why I am glad to be baptized. Philippians 4:13 — "I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.”
Cade Christopher I am glad I was baptized because I get to experience the Lord and his sacrifices for us. I now feel connected to God, The Bible, and Jesus Christ himself. I am looking forward to my future with the Lord. Joshua 1:9 — “Be strong and courageous, do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. For the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”
Gavin Kent I am glad I was baptized because I know that God will be with me always. I get to experience the unconditional love of God, and the sacrifice of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Jeremiah 29:11 — “For I know the plans that I have for you, says the Lord, plans for peace and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.”
Darren Axel I am glad I was baptized because I love having a strong connection to God. Being connected with God is amazing, he may help you through anything no matter what you are going through. I am looking forward to my future with God knowing he will be by my side whenever I need him. Psalm 118:6 — “The Lord is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?”
Connor Brandon I am glad I am being baptized because I believe in God and love him with my whole heart. In my life I’ve always felt God in my heart when I’m doing something that I have passion for. In the times in life when I feel alone I look to God and I feel saved. I hope with my Baptism and Confirmation that I will keep thinking of God when times are good and feel the Lord with me when times are bad. Luke 19:5 — “I must stay at your house today.”
The Terrific Tuesday Kids were blessed with a special treat this week….they got to be up close and personal with Becky Iverson and the organ at their church. They were impressed that Miss Becky could play with both hands and both feet at the same time! Did you know this organ has 876 pipes? It was a special experience!
And check out these videos…..
