Baptisim At Hamlin Beach

TBS has been blessed by God to have an increase in attendance to our bible study. We ended up filling the living room and kitchen area on study nights. We then made the decision to move into the garage so we could all fit and see each other during the study. As more attend we are finding that some have not been baptized. A public declaration in believing that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

Acts 8:35 35Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus. 36And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? 37And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. 38And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.

We believe that it would be a blessing to have a baptizing in the waters of Lake Ontario in June at Hamlin Beach State Park. It would also include a pinic with family members and friends attending the festivities. We believe it will also make a time for witnessing for the Lord to people he places in that area that day. We need to pick a date so begin to think about it. If you have any comments or ideas please let us know and please pray about this, we want the Lord to direct this thing.
