As reported before Steven and I have been regularly attending a church here in Delta. Today during our Thanksgiving service we were both baptized. It was an amazing day. It started early with making mashed potatoes at 8am (without a mixer!) followed by Sunday School and then service. Our church is small. It probably only seats about 100 people and it was filled. Normally we only have about 40 people, but not today. Today we filled the pews and God filled hearts. The sermon was absolutely amazing and touching. It was great to have family and friends there with us and to meet even more people. During the invitation Steven's brother was saved and it was the most amazing thing to witness. It took everything I had not to break down in tears. Following that Steven and I along with another couple were baptized. I can't lie, last night I was ridiculously nervous. I even made Steven practice falling backwards so that I could sleep. Today though it was easy and my nerves were washed away. We enjoyed a great Thanksgiving lunch afterwards with great company and then a time for testimony and singing. A beautiful day indeed.
