A windy day

Driving down to the beach for the baptisms we came over the hill to see about 3 to 6 foot waves or so and I thought ,.... I am not sending my kids out in the waves to be baptized. Who thought of this anyway. No the wind did not calm down, yes it was chilly, yes it remained windy. And YES I did allow them in the water for baptism. It was so very cool. God did the baptizing ( kinda) The waves knocked several people off their feet and at one point two of our pastors were in the lake just for help and support as the waves were fierce.

I was a beautiful day though, and I know the Holdy Spirit is like a wind and if that is the case boy oh boy did He show up today to annoint in this service.

Anyway all were safe and about 40 to 50 were baptized. PTL
SO VERY COOL! iT WAS GREAT TO HAVE CHURCH AT THE BEACH WITH THE WAVES AND THE WIND AND THE SUN. GOD IS SOO GOOD!

I'm so happy that you were able to see your kids follow in obedience.
