Baptisms

January 4, 2026 by NZ Filbruns Leave a Comment

We had the joy yesterday of seeing two of our children baptized! Both Mr. Imagination and Little Miss made that decision on the same day not long ago. Gayle led the service; we sang four songs, he gave a message about baptism, then the children each shared a brief testimony, and he baptized them. After they came out of the water, Gayle invited everyone to gather around and pray for them. Afterward, a person who was coming down to swim came up to us and offered to send us some pictures she took. That gave us a brief opportunity to talk to her about the Lord!

Here is a video I got of the baptism. The sun was so bright I couldn’t see the screen of my phone, so it isn’t the best, but you can hear a lot of it anyway.
