Going for a Dunk

Baptism Mosaic RC August 10th, 2008

There is really no better way to celebrate a Sunday service than with Baptism - to see one who has made a commitment to Jesus to serve Him all of his/her life and make the public declaration by being immersed in water.  Wow, it is awesome!  Arlene Quintero said, “I was sprinkled as a baby by my parents’ decision, but I wanted to be baptized today because it is my faith and my decision.”   Baptism is an important part of the Christian faith.  It is by baptism that we profess to the world that we are followers of Jesus Christ.  It is much like the wearing of a wedding ring.  It is the outward symbol to the commitment we made to our spouse.  All of that said, it was a great day; and I was honored to be a part of it.  Congratulations Arlene!

Next Sunday we resume our walk with Abram in Genesis 12.  Read the chapter before Sunday, and see what insights you get as we follow his footsteps to mature faith.

Blessings to all,

Rod
