| Reading her testimony |
Our Emma Kait was baptized today. It was a beautiful ceremony at a small ravine in Lincoln, surrounded by friends, family and our church community. Here are some pictures of the day and Emma's testimony written all by herself. We are so proud of our girl. She is a gift from God and a blessing to us.

My Testimony
By Emma Stanphill
I think Jesus is a wonderful and generous lord. He helps me when I feel nervous or scared.
I pray to him when I get scared. When I pray it reminds me he’s always there. When I pray to him it comforts me. If I am nervous or about to do something I remember he’s with me. That encourages me. He makes me feel special and different because He knows everybody and everything but He will never forget me. Even when I do something bad or if I sin he will always will love me. I show him that I am a follower of Jesus by praying, going to church, and getting baptized. After I get baptized I will try to remember to not sin. But nobody can be perfect. I will feel like a follower of Jesus even more when I get baptized. I believe that Jesus is our lord and nobody else can be. Even though people praise bad things, I will never leave Gods footsteps. I also believe everyone should go to church. It changes your life. I am very excited to be baptized and thankful for all the people who are encouraging me to be baptized.
