Never too young to learn God's Word -Energizer Bunnies' Mommy Reports

  Sometime last week, Hubs said he needed to run down to the store to pick up a few odds and ends. My 2 1/2 year old said he wanted to go with Dada and  ran off to find his shoes.

Without a second thought, pat came his reply-"If you get scared just say Do not be afraid, Jesus is with me!" and then off he … [Read more...]

. Over a year ago Bunny girl asked us if she could be baptized. Hubby and I discussed this between ourselves and felt she was too young to make such a big decision at 5.
