Welcome to the Family of God, Emily

Emily accepted Jesus as her personal Savior during an evening service of our revival in April and her baptism was this past Sunday. Although baptism doesn't give us our salvation, it is the first step of obiedence when we make public our decision to follow Christ. When Brother Dorr asked Emily what Romans 10:9 "If you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord..." means she said "It's when you just can't take it anymore and you have to tell people about Jesus." I can't describe what it feels like to know that my child has secured herself a place in heaven. It's a feeling that I've expierenced twice before and I can't wait until I get to do it again in a few years.
