I saw "the dunk" yesterday in the sanctuary:) Way to go!
Anderson's comment is funny! You never know what they are thinking in those little heads.
Too bad about the dolphins, right? So excited for you Heather - I was hooting and hollering for you over in Kinetic! :)
I missed it on the big screen, but thanks to this blog I relived it with you!
Yeah - Way to go, we're so proud of you!
Congratulations on your baptism. I'm sorry you weren't able to find any dolphins. That would have been fun! :)
So, I was secretly hoping that you would post pictures. I wish we could have been there, but I was definitely thinking about you on Sunday morning. Baptism was an interesting topic in our house for years. I, too, was sprinkled as a child and was re-baptized via immersion before we joined ASBC. Congratulations!!
So glad that I was able to take part and snap some fabulous photos of you in your lovely gown! You looked so angelic!! :) So proud of you and I know Anderson was too!!
so proud of you Heather and so glad we were able to catch you on the big screen! i bet it feels awesome to know you've done it! :)
I wish you could have been in Kinetic at the same time to hear the WHOLE room cheering and clapping SOOO loud for our Heather!! It was quite moving!!! You would have smiled knowing that you had so many cheers & claps...we love you!
WOOO HOOOO! So proud of you!
I was looking for photos of baptisms for a music video collage, and I came across this and was instantly moved. The look on your face after you are immersed is so precious. It is the look of someone who was ready to be baptized. Putting on a gown, in our case more like a waterproof nylon jumper, and being dunked is uncomfortable for people who aren't ready for the humility and submission God requires of us at baptism. But when you understand baptism that is a beautiful thing. Baptism is meant to allow us to experience a childlike humility and obedience that comforts the soul. And that is a face of a comforted soul.
