Since Rooke has been born, we haven't participated in a baby dedication service at church. There are a few reasons for this, but the biggest one was that our church is very big and taking part in a time of dedication in front of thousands of people we still don't know well lacked meaning for us. So last Tuesday, we had a time of dedication with our community group, who we know well and love. Elijah and Clementine's family (the same friends from the trip to the zoo) participated as well.
I don't know how this picture happened! All three of them just standing there in their jammies. My friend said it looks like it could be a picture from the seveties!
The kids were pretty excited they got to stay up late!
The Hurt family while someone was reading a passage of Scripture (meanwhile, Rooke was spinning around in the middle of the circle of our group!)
A friend in the group made these cupcakes to look like candles, symbolizing the children being a light for the Gospel.
Most of the group. They truly are a blessing to us. We are grateful for their friendship and the support they offer as we seek to raise Rooke in a way that honors God.
