Water Baptism II
Oct 17, 2016
39 Brothers and sisters took the step of faith to receive water baptism. This time it was extra special because we had 8 lovely children who made the decision to receive too. It was always a blessing to see the new creations reaffirming their faith and position in the Lord in public.
Pastor Gavin joyfully shared about the symbolism of water baptism: The entering of union with God, the covenant made and the new life in them. Pastor Gavin led the crowd into praying for these brothers and sisters. With wonderful weather, joyful praise and worship, they entered the water to receive the baptism.
What awaited onshore for these were hugs, prayers and bouquets of flowers celebrating this significant day !
Of course the abundant life awaits them as they walk in the steps of Christ just like what they did on this day !
Praise God ! And let’s continue to witness the love of God manifesting in our lives.
