Today was a GREAT day at First Assembly! We baptised 12 people after the 10:45 AM service, with 5 of them being guys from the youth group. I'm so proud of the guys from the youth group who went through with baptism this morning. They are all students from 
George Jr. Republic (GJR) who attend Grove City High School. Here's the thing about each of these guys: at some point in their past, they did something that brought them to GJR. I never know what paths some of these kids have taken to get them there, but I absolutely love it when they show up at our youth ministry and on Sunday mornings.

Over the past couple of weeks at Re:volution, it's been awesome to see they way they have responded to some of the altar call / invitations 
we've made. I've watched these guys grow steadily in their faith, and a couple of weeks ago when we opened up the opportunity to get baptized, these guys took it.

That's what I love about water baptism. At some point each of us become aware of our need for God, and baptism is the way Jesus gave us to show everyone we know what a difference knowing God has made in our lives.
So, to Anthony, Chris, Chuck, Zach, and Nolan I say not only congrats, but keep growing in God. You guys are awesome!
