Water Baptized!

Zane and Titus decided to be baptized together on January 17th! They've been desiring this public display of their decision to follow Christ for some time now, and our recent study in school of John's baptism of Jesus sparked their interest again. How timely that our church scheduled a baptism on this particular Sunday! What a special time this was for the boys and for Will and me, who rejoice in our children's belief in Jesus as Lord and Savior and their desire to live for Him!



Getting in the baptismal... we were told the water was nice and warm, which was great on a chilly day. This was the calm before a long series of rainstorms that hit CA, starting later that night!






Here, Pastor Van Wick and Pastor Tage are praying with the boys. I wish I had a better angle, but I love the shots of Titus' small praying hands in the three upper photos and Zane's in the two lower.



Baptized together!

I love the joy on the boys' faces!

This is not the greatest family picture, but we're all so happy, despite the sun shining in our eyes!
