Bobby was baptized as an infant, but has never made the decision to be baptized by immersion. Today, after being in a C-group (small group) with our senior pastor for the past 6 months or so, he made the leap of faith to publicly proclaim his faith. I'm very proud of him, as are so many others, as he had a very large cheering section at church today. Congratulations, Bobby, for taking one step closer to Christ!
It was a big deal, too, for our senior pastor to get into the tank with Bobby today, as he doesn't normally perform the baptisms at church.
It was also special that Natalie was able to watch her Daddy get baptized, even if she was more enthralled with him being on the big screen at church. However, a few of the other kids from our c-group families got to participate in watching Bobby's baptism, which I'm sure has now brought up the important conversation in their households about what baptism is and what is means to be baptized.
We love you, Bobby and can't wait to see you grow even more in your faith!
