Congratulations to Micah and Ruth!

Monday night, December 27, 2010 was a special celebration night.  I believe I have mentioned in a previous post that when Lucas and Bailey were saved and baptized, Doug & Wendy hosted a celebration banquet with the Bischoff's, Green's and the Wallace's honoring the decisions they had made.  Now it was time for Micah and Ruth.  Micah was actually saved and baptized last December, but it just had not worked out for the banquet until this year.  Since Ruth made her decision early this month and will be baptized when they get back to their church, we got to celebrate with both of them.

We all met at the Pasta House and had a feast of salad, lasagna, fettucini, bread, and chocolate cheesecake.  Doug asked for testimonies from anyone who wanted to share their salvation experience with Micah and Ruth.  Then Micah and Ruth read their testimonies.  So sweet, I wish I had a copy to share with you.  Then Doug prayed over them and we all visited a little more before we left.

Here's some picture memories:

The guests of honor....Micah Steven and Ruth Ann

 

Since Doug & Wendy & kids were leaving the next morning, everyone had to say their good-byes that night.

Then Bailey took a picture of me taking a picture of her.....

Tuesday morning at 7 am, they headed for home in Houston, Texas.  Always hate the leaving part, but sure do love the visit part.

I get to see them again in March, plus talking with Wendy on the phone just about every day helps a lot.

Love you all,

Mom
