Samuel's Dedication Day

Today Sara and I dedicated our son to the Lord. The dedication ceremony symbolized our active dedication of him to Jesus, who we trust will lead Samuel in his decisions all of his days. It also symbolized our commitment, Uncle Steve and Auntie Christa (his godparents) as well as our whole church family at Oak Hills Baptist Church to raise him in the knowledge of Christ's story and great love of Samuel.

Special thanks to the family and friends who came to our church today to join in our dedicating of our son. Thank you as well to Pastor John and Shelly for their leadership and commitment to lead and care for our son.

Sara did a tremendous job making lunches for the family at our house and then we took pictures (quickly b/c it's 89 degrees and feels like 100) and went our separate ways. God is good.

Good fellowship

I am always grateful for the fellowship of believers that I have at Redeemer Church in Indy. They are authentic, talented and Christ-filled people. Above are a few pics from the service in the gymnasium this morning. Oh yeah, the gym is older than my parents...

They're married!

We stopped by a BP to get a beverage but they were closed. Thus the "thumbs" down sign from the Mr and Mrs. Congrats bro (and sis). Proud to be a part of the event.
