Baptism in the River

The weather was uncertain early on Sunday, July 20, but rain only threatened. Families, friends, and church members gathered on the lawn behind Ginny Grabowski's home for worship, including welcoming seven new members into the fellowship of the church, and baptizing one adult and four children in the shallow waters of Bruce Brook. Ginny had a wonderful "coffee" hour afterwards, and the Deacons provided a cake.

There will be additional pictures from the service posted soon. Here are just a few from the fellowship celebration after the service.



River DeFelice and Hattie Colligan were two of the children baptized. They are holding vases of garden flowers given to their parents in honor of joining the church and celebrating their children's baptism.


The kids always enjoy the refreshments, especially when there is cake. Many are friends in school, and enjoy seeing one another outside of school.
