A slightly different sort of post this time - baptism.
This Sunday we'll be having baby baptised at our church.
It will be done by 'full immersion' - dunked into a plastic box full of (hopefully warm) water in front of our church family and friends.
For us as parents it is to declare that we have decided to do our best to bring her up in a Christian lifestyle with Christian teaching until she is able to make that decision for herself.
Its also to give thanks to God for giving her to us to parent. (Because despite the bad nights, the frustrating whining, and various gross fluids etc, we really are thankful to be parents to this little girl)
If you want to know more about what baptism is all about, and why we've chosen to have her baptised, either come along to the service or drop either of us a message!
If you'd like to join us for the baptism and dont already know the details, drop us a message and we'll let you know!
