News and Notes for Sunday August , 14, 2011

Sacred Acts – Baptism: On Saturday, August 13, 2011, Dashel Arnold Ball, the son of Brad and Annie (nee Hurd) Ball was baptized “In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” His Godparents are Greg and Lindsy Palmer. We praise God that through Holy Baptism He has claimed Dashel to be His Son whom He loves. We pray that Dashel will throughout the years continually hear and be taught the Gospel so that he will remain steadfast in the faith that Jesus is his Savior and thereby obtain eternal life.
