Today was a very special day in the life of Jenna Rose Lang.
We welcomed her into her new life of faith in Jesus Christ.

Dear Jenna,
Look who showed up for your baptism, Sept. 16th. Golly, what a family!
Here are your elders, your grand and great grandparents.
Equal time for your great grandmothers.
My, how they loved holding you!
Here you are with your aunt and your grandmother.
But there you re safe in the arms of your mother, Ashley.
Your uncle Jason and aunt Pam are serving as your god parents.
They took times holding you on that day.
On your mom's family side are the Reims, Langs, and Adams.
We hope you'll use these photos to preserve your history and baptismal day at Our Saviour.
We will all remember your day, as well.
Blessings, Jenna.
