Sara's Baptism

 

Sara is officially

a part of God's kingdom!








She wore a beautiful baptismal gown

that was handcrafted by her Grandma Snegosky.

She made the gown entirely

out of her own wedding dress!






The baptism took place

after the hymn of the day

which was after the sermon

which made this momma nervous.




To my surprise,

Sara was a perfect angel.

No fussing what-so-ever.



After a quick diaper change

during the children's sermon

She watched Pastor Paul Lutter

while he gave his sermon

and she did not make a peep.



The Pastor invited all children

to join us for a front row seat

(including my friend's son, Leo)

which I thought was really special.



Sara was slightly confused / annoyed

when Pastor Paul poured holy water

on her head.

It was pretty cute.



After the baptism, the pastor took Sara

and walked her down the aisle

to introduce her to the congregation.



 
 
 


The church gave Sara a baptismal chest.

Someone from the congregation makes them.

It included a crochet prayer shall

her baptismal candle

a bulletin from the service

and a medallion engraved with Sara's name.





 






God Bless you, Sara Mae!
