Thing is a new creation!

A few bullets on today:

• I'm dog-sitting Laila (Candice's dog) until Thursday! Woop :)
• I don't have work tomorrow (technically today), since it's the 4th.
• I got to see Heather, Jolyn, and Elsbeth's new apartment!
• I like it a lot, and I hope to be spending more time there :)
• Also, Jolyn and Shelly are crazy flirtatious with one another ;)

1822 tonight was a baptism service :) Seven wonderful brothers and sisters in Christ dedicated themselves to a rebirth that washes them of their former lives and makes them alive and renewed in Jesus by the washing of His Holy Spirit :) Praise God for that! We were set up in the back of the parking lot, and our baptees were baptized in the bed of a pick-up truck! It was so cool :)

Elsbeth:

"What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? ² By no means! We died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? ³ Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? ⁴ We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead^(F)through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life."
{Romans 6:1-4}

What followed was a celebration cook-out! A few of our wonderful pastors grilled hamburgers, hot dogs, and veggie burgers for us :) And can we please check out my Senior Pastor right now?

No shame! Haha!

Oh, how I do love Hershey :) I love him a lot, actually! And this picture really does make me smile :)

Twas a wonderful evening indeed     filled with celebration and fellowship :) Goodnight all!
