Post-Baptism

I don't know how many of you were able to be a part of our service on Sunday but it was absolutely amazing! We had six students get baptized! What a great time of celebration and unity for our church. Pastor Larry Wilson did a great job explaining the importance of baptism and challenging us to live together as one body, one church with one vision.
The students were so thrilled to be able to make this commitment in front of the whole church body. It was a great time of family worship as our kids joined us in the adult service. I loved looking around and seeing the little kids standing on their chairs or being held by their parents, craning their necks to see what was going on. It was so great to have everyone in our sanctuary for this blessed event. Thanks so all of the parents for being such good sports! I would really like to incorporate our kids into the service more often to promote families worshiping together.
I have heard from many parents that his was their child's first time witnessing baptism. It is so important for our kids to know that they are a part of our church! Involving them in our adult services once in a while is a great way to do this!
I would love to know your thoughts on Sunday and would be interested if you have any ideas for better ways to get our kids involved!
