Kristen's Baptism, Sept 20, 2008



when they baptize u they say,
i baptize u my sister in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit
because of the decision you have made to follow Jesus
buried with Him in death, arise and walk in new life
(or something close to that).
it symbolizes the death and resurrection of Jesus and the commitment to a new life in Him.
not free of sin but free from the punishment of sin (separation from God when we die).
i pray kristen will have a clear memory of her decision. know it was real even though she was young. and commit to grow closer to Jesus as she grows older & has more and more understanding of His ways.
