Eli's Baby Dedication

Last Sunday we had Eli's baby dedication at church. For those of you who are unfamiliar with a "baby dedication" it is a public statement by Brent and I saying that we are going to do our best to raise Eli the way God wants us too. The dedication in no way has any bearing on Eli's eternal security although we pray that the way we raise him will help lead him to Christ. It also is a request to the other people in attendance to be praying for us as we go on this journey. The Wertenbergers and Wicherts were all there. It was so wonderful to have them all there to share in the moment and for them to know they have a vital part in Eli's upbringing too. Brent and I are so blessed to have such wonderful families.
