Last Sunday we had spontaneous baptisms here at both the 9am and 11:15am services. We had a total of 9 people get baptized, 4 at the 9am and 5 at the 11:15am. With the exception of maybe one or two people, everyone else just came up, talked to a Pastor, and then went right up into the water in their church clothes! It was very powerful, watching the Spirit move on peoples hearts, and I for one was crying as soon as the first person went in the water! Here's the sermon from last Sunday, taken from our 30-month series on the Gospel of Luke. We're currently in Luke 10: 17-24:
And here are some pictures from Sunday...
...the worship band this week had a 4 piece brass section, which was amazing! The kids always love to be up front and praise Jesus!
...worship and praise as we see our brothers and sisters get baptized!
...more soon! May the Lord continue to bless all you do for His glory!

One more thing I'd like to add....
ReplyDeleteThis was just like Awana Camp! All the people praising God.. All the hands held high... (Except people weren't getting baptized.)
It was amazing... Totally amazing! :)

p.s. I love remembering Awana Camp! It was a little over a month ago now... Time goes by so quick!
Just think, one day, not so long from now, (though it may seem long) we will meet the Lord in the air. And what a day that will be!!! :)
