Good News
For I will never leave thee or
forsake thee Hebrews 13: 5;b
Today we are here to proclaim
that life is a journey, not a des-tination and that we live in themidst of promise fulfilled. This
claim calls us to awareness thatwe are held accountable by theone who gives us life. The
promise reminds us that all weneed is freely given to us. This
is a journey, which often takesus through the wilderness,where we receive manna and
water and discover what it
means to be the children ofGod. It is a journey we never
take alone, for we know thatthe One who made the promisewill keep faith. Hallelujah!
He came singing love. He lived
singing love. He died singinglove. He rose in silence. If thesong is to continue, we must do
the singing. In the name of theFather, and of The Son and ofthe Holy Spirit. Amen.

Infant baptism is a ceremony where Christian parents commit to
prayerfully, actively, and intentionally raise their child in the ways
of Christ, desiring that the child will put his/her faith and trust in
Christ as Savior and Lord. In addition, it identifies the child with
the community of faith, acknowledging that God, in his grace, has
placed the child within the fellowship of the people of God.
