God Bless Our Granddaughter on her Christening


 We had a busy weekend as my baby granddaughter received baptism on Sunday.

"Every good and perfect gift is from above...." 
James 1:17


My husband and I stood in proxy for the chosen Godparents 

"May the Lord give His angels charge over you, to guide you in all your ways." 
Psalm 91:11


Our granddaughter "JP" is warmly welcomed by our church!

"Jesus said, "Let the little children come unto Me'...and he took them in His arms and blessed them."
Mark 10:14-16


We were blessed that some of our family were able to visit from New York for the happy occasion and we had a celebratory party back at our home that afternoon. After an unusual amount of rain for a few days prior, the weather cooperated very pleasantly with us that day and we enjoyed a very sweet day.

May God bless our granddaughter and keep her in ways of the Lord.  

"Those who have hope in the Lord...will soar on wings like eagles." 
Isaiah 4:30-31

Christenings are one of my favorite church events to attend. They are just so pure.

What an alert granddaughter you have! Sending blessings to all.

Ah---how special is that. Did she wear a special Christening dress passed down from other family members??? When my grands were baptized, they passed the little dress and bonnet down to other family members. I hope that little dress will continue to make its way down through the family generations to come....

Great set of photos...
Hugs,
Betsy

Aww...hope someone got a video too. She looked like a little angel!
Our church dedicates infants; Luke was almost a year old and the video of him is hysterical.
