Baptism by great-aunt Rita

Last night I was the guest preacher at Maranatha Christian Reformed Church in Woodstock. I had been invited there on the initiative of my niece Melanie to baptize her and Nathan's 5th child, Daniel Philip Huinink. What an honour! We had a great service, celebrating God's grace and his faithfulness through the generations. It was great being back in Woodstock, where I grew up. Lots of new faces in church, but also many dear people who were amazingly familiar, even after being away for 34 years. Love this picture of Nathan and Melanie, and the kids: Joseph, Amber, Tiffany, Levi, and baby Daniel!
