Eight-Year-Old's Baptism

I have been a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Later-day Saints for 17 years, since my baptism on my 8th birthday. Today, I got to attend an 8-year-old's baptism, and it brought me back to my own baptism. It was a special service, and it was wonderful to be there with people I love. I know baptism is a commandment of God. That's why I went through it myself. That's why I spent two years of my life inviting people to experience baptism. That's why I truly believe that the baptism I witnessed today was a significant and wonderful moment in that young person's life.

I am grateful for a baptismal service, and the loved ones I saw and talked with there.
