Matthew in his Baptism clothes

Matthew's Baptism

Today April 11,2009 Our son Matthew was baptized by his dad at 12:00 noon at our church on 1800 N in Clinton. The program was very simple. We sang I am a Child of God, a talk by Joseph VanQuakebeke and then Mike Reed talked about the Hold Ghost. Matthew's good friend Kade was also baptized as well. Kade went first and then Matthew. Matthew was baptized by his father Mark and was a great scene to see that he had made such a good decision. I was a very excited mom to see him so clean and pure. Noelle asked Matthew in the car if he felt any different and he said "Yea I guess I feel really clean now" After the baptism he was also confirmed by Mark. We then had lunch at our place. We had Ham and cheese potatoes, salad, chips, rolls and lots of desert. It was a great day for Matthew we are so proud of you
