Happy Baptism Birthday!

9/7/2023

On the 3rd Sunday of each month, we will celebrate baptism anniversaries for children up 8th grade. The anniversary of your baptism - or Baptism Birthday - is important. It marks the day you became part of God's family, just as your birthday is the day you became part of your family. Each year on your birthday, you celebrate how you have grown. So, during the month of your Baptism Birthday, we are going to celebrate how you have grown in your faith!

September Baptism Birthdays: Tate Hammer, Nora Ramsdell, Carleigh Schrencegost, Madison Bennett, Ian Haugen, Anderson Weber, Otis Ramsdell-Unger, Tyce Flute, Felix Ramsdell-Unger, Lane Peters and Lydia Erickson!

See what love the Father has given us,
that we should be called
children of God;
and that is what we are.
1 John 3:1
