On Sunday, we dedicated Brody at church. We were joined by my parents, our friends Melissa, Ginny, Katherine, Richard, Kevin, and Auntie Ang. We were called onto stage where our children's ministry leader read the stats on Brodes and the meaning of his name. (I can't remember what she said about it right now!) Then we took a charge about teaching him about God and taking him to church; our family members stood up and then the whole church stood and promised to encourage all of us. It was really neat! Although we did not get to share our life verse for Brody, we still chose one for him. (I will post it below and then to the side.) After the service, we all came back to our house for a BBQ. (It was SOOOOO windy outside that we had to cram into our house but everyone had a good time.) We are so lucky to have such a wonderful family and group of friends. Each of them insisted on bringing something to share so we had yummy potato salad, delicious fruit, scrumptous Caesar salad, and superb pies! Thanks everyone!! Thank you to Nana and Grandad for the special card and to Auntie Lori for the text message! We wish you all could have joined us too! Enjoy the smile box!!!
Philippians 1:9-11
And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of rightousness that comes through Jesus Christ- to the glory and praise of God.
