Today was not just any Easter. I was baptized by my fiance, Kerri. I would say that this day was a very special day for Kerri and I to take part in with my continued apreciation for religion. I was very lucky to have all of my friends and family around to share this moment with me. Of those that were there were; Kerri, Emily, Michelle, Eileen, Mom/Dad, Corey, Chris, Susan, Nir, and baby Kayla.
The church service was at 11:15 and the pastor Ron spoke about the afterlife. After the service, Susie introduced the first person to be baptized, Jacob, then Kim, and then I went third. Kerri was my sponsor ( this is someone that is willing to go up to the baptism pool and ask the question: Do you trust in the Lord Jesus Christ as your savior? I say I do. Kerri then said "Now as your sister in Christ, I baptize you in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit". Once she said this I went under water, which we later found out represents the buriing of Jesus and as you come up from the water it represents the resurrection.
After the worship service, my parents, brother, Kerri, Emily, Susan, Nir and Kayla went to have brunch at Le Central. This is a local French restaurant located on 8th and Broadway. We all enjoyed our brunch/lunch and the service was excellent.
