Last weekend, we traveled once again to our beloved College Station (Gig'em Ags!) to have Noah baptized at A&M UMC, a church that holds a lot of special meaning to Kyle and I. It is the first church that we would call our home together (even though I was never actually a member). Our first pastor there, Jerry Neff, drove from Tyler to officiate our wedding. It is also the church where Kason and Emily were baptized and is now the church where I was baptized. Growing up, I was raised Baptist and it was the belief that you were not to be baptized until you were able to profess your commitment to God. While in my heart, I have always been a believer and committed to live a Christian life, I was always too shy to stand up in front of the church (which, honestly, intimidated me very much) to be baptized. So, last Sunday, I was baptized alongside Noah.
We were so happy to spend some time with Kip on Saturday to discuss the baptism the following day, to catch up, and to pray together. We are so thankful that after being away from College Station for more than 6 years, that Kip and A&M UMC still have a place in our lives.
