The Baptism of Jared, Jesse, and James

Sunday, December 4

I like saying those three names because it sounds like a listing of disciples. Jared, Jesse, and James. 🙂

Some of our family waiting for the baptism: Jana, Allie, Josh, Sam, Deb, Roy, Ian and two of our preachers, Luther and Dave. Dave was welcoming everyone.

Closing Prayer

James with his parents Gloria and Dustin.

Our grandsons Jesse and Jared with their parents, Kristen and Jere

We closed by singing:

O happy day, that fixed my choice
On Thee, my Savior and my God!
Well may this glowing heart rejoice,
And tell its raptures all abroad
Happy day, happy day,
When Jesus washed my sins away!
He taught me how to watch and pray,
And live rejoicing every day:
Happy day, happy day,
When Jesus washed my sins away!
