Plunging


This evening Asha will be plunged in water.

In the presence of our church and friends, Asha will bear witness that she is a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ - and that He has forgiven her of all her rebellion against Him and made her His daughter by His once-and-for-all-time sacrifice on the cross.

Asha will tell about what Jesus has done in her life and how she has decided to obey Him in the command to be baptised with water.  This act is an outward sign of the inward renewal God has done and is doing in her through Jesus her Lord.

Needless to say it is any father's dream to see his daughter take steps of faith.  And it is an even greater joy to be the one who is actually baptising her.

Our cup runs over with joy ...
