Sam Nolan's Christening April 22, 2012

"May the Lord give his angels charge over you, to guide you in all your ways…"

Psalm 91:11

On April 22, 2012, Sam Nolan was christened. I took him to get his christening pictures made prior to the big day. He looked so handsome in his beautiful smocked outfit.

Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it. 

 Proverbs 22:6

This precious gift from heaven above was welcomed into Christ's family with love at our church, Leeds First United Methodist Church.

On this day we placed Sam Nolan in God's care forevermore.

Although Sam Nolan is only a baby, we know he has the promise of a future only God has planned.

Sam Nolan, the dream Daddy and I have for you is to feel His love and the love of those around you.

And may you always follow in His way.

I think this poem says it best...
Catch the moment and put it in your heart
and never let it go.
Save it for the years to come
when he, too, will know.


After the christening we celebrated with our family. The day was beautiful, the weather was perfect, and our babies were happy.
We are not only guiding our children in their journey with God, but they are a constant reminder to us of all things good from Him.

This was Sam Nolan.
