What a day

Today was one of those special days in the life of the local church when we listened to the story of one person's journey with God. It was a baptismal service for one of our young people. Friends and family came, and we had a good time.
Such occasions are personally both draining and exciting. Baptising someone is one of the great privileges of ministry, one I particularly enjoy. Our theme for the day was the life of Esther, looking at how she rejected the stereotype of what everyone expected her to be, in favour of fulfilling the mission God invited her to be part of. 
All in all in went together very well.
Here's to the next baptism!
