Al and I were privilaged to attend the baptisms of Corrine and Jordon Gilbertson. These cousins are both in college in Oregon. Corrine's family lives in California and in Arizona and most of Jordon's family lives in the Portland area. The celebration happened at Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church. This is the church Al retired from. There were three sets of Grandparents, one set of Great Grandparents, Moms, brother, sister, cousins, Aunts, Uncles, friends, and the whole congregation. Their Grandma and Grandpa Gilbertson attend this church and are very good friends of ours. It is exciting to attend a baptism of a young child, but even more exciting when a young adult chooses Jesus as their Savior and friend.
Jordon, child of God, you have been washed by the waters of baptism and sealed with the cross of Christ forever. Thanks be to God!
Corrine, child of God, you have been washed by the waters of baptism and sealed with the cross of Christ forever. Thanks be to God!
