Mercy, peace and love be yours in abundance. Jude 1:2

But Jesus said, "Let the children come to me. Don't stop them!
For the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to such as these."

May 20th, 2007
We formally dedicated Jude Robert Fletcher to God and lifted him back to the Father.

As his parents we decalre our faith in Jesus Christ and testify to our desire that Jude would know and love Christ early in life, follow the impulses of His Spirit daily, maintain an active and growing relationship with the Father throughout his life and spend eternity in His presence.

There will come a day when he will make a choice about faith for himself, but until then as parents in love with Christ we will model and teach Jude to love our Savior, to be hungry for His Word, and to make His house of worship a place of refuge and comfort. We will strive to teach him positive and healthy habits, guide his education, observe his relationships, always help him to listen for God's counsel and stay on the right path.

'We dedicate him now in the name of the Father, and of the Son & of the Holy Spirit. Amen.'

Oh gosh, he looks like his daddy!

This is such a wonderful photo, generationally speaking! You are blessed in so many wonderful ways. Who would have thought our perky little LA would now be incorporated(we did of course, the minute we met Kyle!)into a family of 4.

You have enriched my life so much,
