Catherine and Stephen's Baptisms

As most of you know, it was our plan to get Catherine baptised Sunday. We went to meet with our Pastor (Jason) last week to discuss what infant baptism means and how the ceremony was to go. While we were there, he asked what our intentions were as far as baptisms and membership. Although we had been visting St. Luke for a while and my parents are members, we had not yet joined the church. I was baptised at St. Luke when I was in middle school, but Stephen had never been baptised. So we decided that Stephen and Cat would be baptised together and that we would all become members of St. Luke.

So yesterday was a very special day for all of us. The baptism ceremony was beautiful. Catherine did very well. She went right to Jason and didn't seem to mind the water being put on her head. She even waved at the congregation when Jason walked her up and down the ailse to show her off! Stephen behaved too :) Here are some pictures from the special day - there are a lot, but they were all so good! We also videotaped it, but I am still editing the video! I will post it soon! Enjoy!
