Very moving: Our Recent Baptismal Service!
Add comment September 6th, 2010
We experienced a very exciting and moving day this past Sunday afternoon. Our fellowship held a baptism at the home of one of the families in our church. The water was cool but hearts were warmed by the love of the Lord and appreciation for the support of everyone present to witness this important day.
In all, eleven people confirmed a public confession of their faith in the Lord Jesus Christ by being baptized. Many shared their stories of how the Spirit of God brought them to the point of trust and faith in the saving work of Christ and the truth of the gospel. The theme of the power of God’s amazing grace came through again and again.
Those being baptized ranged in age from a youth of eight up to a “young-at-heart” seventy year old veteran. Especially touching was the baptism of both a mother and her adult daughter. They both came to saving faith in the Lord recently, and the daughter in a very dramatic way upon waking from a coma from which she was not expected to recover!
God is on the move in Anderson Valley, and we are all so thankful and joyous to be His children.ПРАВОСЛАВНАТА ИКОНАПравославни икониikoniИкониПодаръциикониикониикони на светцииконописikoni
