We are so proud of Jacob for choosing to be baptized.
It was a very special day.

Jacob waited a month to be baptized so that his
Grandpa Blake could attend.
Dad and Jacob
Jacob was baptized and confirmed by his dad.
Jacob asked his mom to give a talk on Baptism.
Here is the poem she wrote for it:
REMEMBER
You make a promise on this special baptism day,
To remember Jesus Christ and follow in His ways.
To keep His commandments and endure to the end.
Always remember Jesus Christ – He's your greatest Friend!
You are clean! -washed clean this special Baptism Day!
Remember that the greatest gift of God is given to you this way!
Today you begin the strait and narrow path to eternal life,
As you journey on, remember, oh, remember Jesus Christ.
None of us are perfect; when you make a mistake, you can repent
As you have faith and remember Jesus Christ whom God has sent.
Each week remember and renew your Baptismal Covenant
As you think of Jesus and worthily partake of the sacrament.
Remember that you can feel clean and pure every week,
Because of Jesus Christ, whom you daily seek.
Remember Jesus Christ - keep His commandments too,
And He'll grant that His Spirit will always be with you!
