Cinco de Mayo Baptisms

Greetings, EVBC Mesans!

I wanted to share some pictures with you ... two from our area, along with five others from Gilbert, were baptized on Saturday night (Cinco de Mayo) at the home of Chuck and Kathy Bishop.

It was a great night! Kevin Carlisle and Ron Taylor both shared their how Christ has manifested Himself in their lives during the past few years. We were all reminded of the awesome love God has to save sinful people like us, and give us eternal hope.

So, in case you couldn't be there...a few pictures for you.

Make sure you congratulate Kevin and Ron the next time you see them -- and welcome them to the family!

"For even as the body is one and yet has many members, and all the members of the body, though they are many, are one body, so also is Christ. For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body...and we were all made to drink of the one Spirit." - 1 Cor. 12:12-13

God's best to you all this week!
