Madeline's Baptism

"May the Lord keep you and bless you, Madeline"

Madeline was baptized into our Covenant family this Sunday. Without going into too much detail, we believe that God has promised to be our God and the God of our children forever. We baptize as a sign of this promise. Madeline's salvation will always depend upon her placing her faith alone in Christ Jesus.

We had a good crowd of family and friends with us to celebrate and then to Jim N Nick's for lunch. She did so beautifully! I was really worried she was going to freak out because I had cut short her morning nap and then she was just about to doze off again when it was time to go up, but she went to our pastor with ease. She was a cool cucumber the whole time. My favorite part is that at our church after a baptism we sing "Jesus Loves Me," but we change the pronoun to "You." So the whole congregation was singing to our daughter about how much Jesus loves her. Very sweet moment for us.
