Lainey's Baptism!!!!!


***********************************************
super highlight of the month and the year!!!! Lainey Beth made a personal decision to live her life for Jesus! She told mike and i she wanted to get baptised and we are soooo excited!!!! she was so cute when we asked her what she wanted to say. she said, "I want to live my life for Jesus and i want everyone to know it!" NOTHING BETTER...than to know you children are walking with the Lord!
mike got to baptize her....what an honor and a special experience! it was an awesome celebration. there were 15 folks in our community who got baptised during our sunday celebration worship service. it was sooooo amazing!!! everyone in the building was so thrilled. it was like the Holy Spirit released electricity in the air....there was so much energy and celebration! it was sooo special to have so many of our family and special friends be able to share in this most special day in her history with God. we are soooo grateful for all of our Kingdom family....thank you guys for rejoicing with her and us!!!
our dear sweet, sweet friend Jill Dankbar asked me if I would baptise her. it was one of the greatest honors. we love Jill so much....our whole family. she is a truly amazing woman of God who is following hard after Jesus! she has been so faithful to come and pray over our sweet annie weekly. her heart and love for GOd's Kingdom is an beautiful thing. she is going on staff with Young Life this next year and we are sooo excited for her!
"THerefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life." Romans 6:4

I know God has amazing plans for her life as she will lead thousands to the Lord through her gentle spirit. She has amazing examples to follow. :) I will continue to pray for her. I love you my little sister in Christ, Lainey.
