Better Late than never....

Molly got dedicated at our church (Grace Community Church) the end of November. I have been meaning to blog this for awhile. If you have read my other post's you realize that we are a pretty busy family. So here is a picture of Molly on the day she got dedicated and then below it is a letter that we wrote to her that day. We had a lunch at our house for our families and we read the letter during that time.



Dear Molly, November 23, 2008

We feel blessed that God has brought you into our family. It is exciting for us to see you start to develop your own personality. Your bright eyes and smile show us how much you love us.

Our prayer is for God to help us understand how we can nurture you. Though we as parents strive to meet all your needs, only God can truly understand and meet all your needs. As your parents our goal is to teach you about Jesus and pray that you come to know him and follow him. In addition, your church, family and friends will be there to support us and you in your walk with Jesus.

We know that the decision to be baptized will someday be yours, and we pray you’re your dedication today is one of the first steps in you learning to know Christ.

As you grow we pray that we can show you the unconditional love that God has shown us. We will continue to pray for you through every stage of life. We are excited to see the plan that God has set out for you!

Love,

Mom and Dad
