The Blessings of Both Giving and Receiving

Sunday was a wonderful day for our church.  On a day in which our focus was on missions around the world, we were reminded of our own mission right here at home.  We began the service with the baptism of a child whose faith has been nurtured not only by her family but also by this congregation.  It was indeed a blessing to see that nurturing come to fruition as Averie Robbins experienced...
