Samuel was baptized at our church this past Sunday. I was a little nervous about how he would be up on stage in front of everyone...especially when it was his nap time. Thankfully he loved looking at all of the people and was really good...even when Pastor John put the water on his forehead. We are so grateful to our friends and family who shared this special day with us as we declared that it is our intent to raise Samuel in the knowledge and love of Christ. Our prayer is that Samuel will accept Jesus at a young age and walk with him all the days of his life. May God bless our little man.

*All of the pictures (except the first and last) were taken by our good friend Andrew Rush. He is an amazing photographer and was kind enough to help capture Samuel's special day.
