Fathers Day and Baptism

We had a great day at church yesterday. It was Father's Day and Rosie Main saluted them in her greeting. We celebrated the faith of Jared Laflamme and Rebecca Matteau as they went into the baptismal waters. Then we welcomed them, Cynthia Costa and her daughter, Kaitlin Beavan into the church family. Our praise team sang "Change My Heart of God." My sermon dealt with the story of David and Goliath and I gave some tips on how to defeat the giants in our lives.

After church Mark and Pam Kane hosted a coffee hour in honor of the new members and Erica Kane held a mini fund raiser for the Appalachian mission trip.

Here are a few photos from the service.

You will notice Kristen Deptulski and baby Liam in the last photo. He fell asleep during the sermon.

We had an interesting discussion after church about the fact that with Kaitlin and Cindy joining the church, they became a three generation family in our active membership. I did a little research and discovered that we have four families that can make that claim right now. Notice two of them came about as a result of yesterday's welcome and right hand of fellowship. They include;

Bob & Helen Walker - their daughter Cynthia Costa and - her daughter Kaitlin Beavan
Judy Vickers - her daughter Janet Laflamme and - her son Jared Laflamme
Carol Calkins - her daughter Sandy Stone and - her daughter Bethany Stone
Sue & Al Damien - their daughter Pam Maynard and - her daughter Allison Walberg
