Nolan and Hudson's Church Dedication

We had a long talk a few weeks ago with Nolan about how we officially became members of Rush Creek. Nolan wanted to know if he was a "member" and we told him yes. He wanted to know what that meant and so we tried our best to explain it to him. We also told him that we were going to be baptized and that we were going to dedicate him and Hudson to the church. We explained to him that meant we were making a promise to the church that we would raise him in a Christian home and rely on the church to help us teach him about the Bible and about Jesus. He was pretty excited about it. :) This past Sunday was the big day. All our family and a bunch of friends were there to support us. I can not tell you how much it meant to me to walk onto that stage and see 20 smiling faces! I feel a difference everyday in my family, my marriage and my day to day life with the commitments we have made to be more involved in church and really make God the focus. We were blessed to be able to stand up and show our dedication to our friends, family and our church.
