Remember when I told you that Christine had prayed to receive Jesus as her Saviour? Well, this Sunday, she was finally able to get baptized. Since James left for NC with my Mom the day after she was saved, we decided to wait until he was back up and we were all able to be at church. We had it scheduled for last week, but the van problems caused us to delay it a week. Grandpa Wall had the honor of baptizing her. She did very well. She’d been practicing in the bathtub the last month. The only thing the she wasn’t ready for was that when she sat down, the water came all the way up to her shoulders.
After church, we went the our family’s favorite restaurant, a great Chinese buffet place. Everybody likes something they have there, so we get our moneys worth out of it. Christine received her first cross necklace. It was a gift from Grandma Wall. It has a clear crystal piece in the middle, which if you look at closely (very closely), you can see the Lord’s Prayer engraved on the back of it. She is delighted with her gift.
