Asha's baptism

A few months ago we had a talk with our daughter about what baptism means, and later she shared that she felt like she was ready to make this proclamation.  In our church they do a sprinkling of water on the head.  It was beautiful to watch Asha bravely step forward to be baptized.  She is growing into such a wonderful young lady who honors the Lord with her life. Before our pastor baptized her he talked about the meaning of her name, shared some verses, and then prayed over her.  It was a special time!  




 In the pictures Asha is with our pastor and one of the elders.  Our whole family also got to stand up front with her.  This was a day to remember!

Such a momentous day!

I really wish you had told me before hand - I would've loved to take photos!
