What a humbling request. Our dear friends, the Burks, came to visit us this weekend. One of their reasons for coming was to have Ted baptize them (or Bap-ma-tize... as Avery would say). Today we went out in the FREEZING weather. I am not kidding... it was in the 40s. My sweet friend, Amy, turned on the heater on her pool for the baptism but it didn't really work. They were FREEZING but it was SO WORTH IT! What sweet memories were made today. We have been friends with the Burks for 10 years now. In our early years of friendship (before kids), we were in ministry together. Eric and Deanna helped us out with a college ministry at our church in the DFW area. We have had some REALLY SWEET moments together.
When they decided to get baptized, they wanted Ted to baptize them... how sweet. It was so touching.
Here were the "witnesses"... how sweet to see our kids out there. Ted talked to them about what baptism symbolizes. It was a precious moment.
Here's Eric getting baptized.
and Deanna...
I love this picture!!!! (below) It looks sunny and warm (it wasn't)... but there was such an amazing feeling ... What a memorable event.
What great friends these guys have been... WE LOVE YOU GUYS!
