The baptism of Mason Lee, infant son of Blake and Emily De Roon, and of Brenna Nicole, infant daughter of Brady and Dayna Kooiker, is scheduled to take place this morning. We thank God for the gift of covenant children and pray He will grant the parents the grace needed to raise these little ones in the fear of His name.
